I started fly-fishing about 30 years ago and have tied my own flies for more than 15 years now.
Furthermore I was co-author of the book “Entomologie für
Fliegenfischer”, which was published in German by Eugen Ulmer in 2002 and was also translated into Czech language in 2005. The German magazine “Fliegenfischen” (Jahr), as well as the French Magazine “Plaisirs de la Peche” and the Italian magazine “Sedge &Mayfly” have continuously published my articles on the topics entomology and fly-fishing.
My flies result mainly from my personal studies of insects and therebye I really mind tying them on their natural models. I have created many patterns with Erhard Loidl.
