Feathersmith was born from the passion we have here at Feathersmith for fly fishing. We treat all of our flies as we would a piece of jewellery and look at each as a miniature work of art - it's all about quality materials and attention to detail.

All of our Feathersmith kits include access to a full step-by-step tying video, along with associated videos on how to get the best when fishing your finished fly.

This fifth in the series of kits focuses on the Spindrift Slayer nymph - one of the most successful Grayling & Trout nymphs used in the UK. 

This nymph is perfect for targeting both Trout and Grayling on rivers and stillwaters and is one of the most successful nymphs used throughout the year - the warmer the weather, the smaller hook should be used.

This Spindrift Slayer nymph is suitable for:

Target Species: Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout & Grayling
Water Types: Rivers & Stillwaters
Location: All UK
Tying Difficulty: Easy (full video step-by-step instructions provided)

Our Spindrift Slayer kit contains:

  • BEKKR Wide-Gape Barbless Jig hooks (10 each of sizes 12, 14 & 16)
  • Silver Slotted Tungsten Beads - 4.6.., 4.0mm & 3.5mm
  • Classic Red 8/0 Thread
  • Shetland Spindrift (Oyster - 2.5m)
  • Shetland Spindrift (Spagnum - 5.0m)
  • Semperfli Straggle String (Brown Olive)

    Contained inside each kit is a leaflet which will direct you to a secret page on our website where all the videos can be accessed.

    With the help of some professional fly tyers, we've identified some really beautiful and unique fly patterns, gathered together all of the materials from world-class and well-respected manufacturers (like Semperfli) and then created a kit which allows you to tie one specific pattern - 30 of each in 3 different hook sizes.

    Here's what's included when you purchase one of our pattern-specific kits:

    • A kit full of world-class materials - more than enough to tie all 30 flies in the kit
    • A video tutorial of how to tie each variation of the fly - presented by a professional fly tyer
    • A video tutorial of how to use and fish the finished fly

    The other piece of advice you will always hear is "It's more expensive to tie your own flies than it is to buy them." - not anymore it isn't, our Feathersmith kits allow you to tie a stunning pattern with the very best materials available - all for less than £1 per fly - now that is great value.

              Need Some Inspiration?

              At its core, fly tying is an art form that marries creativity with functionality, transforming the tying vise into a canvas and feathers into brushstrokes.

              Perfect for an Enthusiastic Novice!

              If you’re like me, you tie on demand and end up cobbling things together as you can’t get your hands on the right stuff or you just end up buying stuff you don’t use. I’ve never really got to grips with tying, but thanks to these excellent sets from Feathersmith I am getting quite productive. See Photo. Love it! 👍👍👍

              Great for someone like me

              As a fly tying newbie, I found myself confused with the plethora of information out there on how to tie, what to tie etc etc. It becomes baffling.
              Tanking the plunge with the Feathersmith kits has given me useable patterns to fish and helped me practice and develop skills in a number of areas. The video instructions are clear and the materials first rate. If like me you have been struggling, give them a try.....you'll not be disappointed with the kits or how much you improve your skills.
