Ahrex – Eriksens Foam Skater – tied by Claus Eriksen

Claus Eriksen, managing director in go-fishing.dk is a bit of a sea trout legend, and when Sea Trout Secrets 8 came out, we were intrigued by his simple, effective foam fly and we persuaded him to tell us a little more about the thoughts behind the fly, and how it’s tied.
Thanks to Claus Eriksen for spending a day with us, and thanks to Niels Vestergaard/Wide Open Outdoor Film for kindly providing the additional footage used in this film.
