This is a pattern that I designed based on Blane Chocklett’s game changer platform. I worked and tweaked this pattern for over a year before I was truly happy with the action.
They are tied on 5 x custom beaded shanks, that I make myself, using medical grade Stainless Steel. These shanks are then attached to an Ahrex Light Predator 6/0 hook.
The beads act as a support for the synthetic fibres, forcing them to sit at a 45 degree angle, whilst also preventing the fibres from collapsing.
If you have seen the swimming action of a game-changer fly, you’ll know that there is no other fly out there that moves like them.
