Padded garment in 2 sections
2 sunglasses pockets with zingers
1 Tray unit with 3 small pockets
2 box units with adjustable
compartments
1 large unit on the back for gear
1 Strap system
The “MP Life Vest” can be used
on its own over your normal
clothing when wading, boating,
or sailing, etc.
For deep wading, turn up the pockets and place the foldable
tray on front.
For light wading, the smaller section with the foldable tray ﬁts
neatly onto your waders
Safety Regulations are becoming stricter these days in most
water sports, including ﬁshing.
Having to wear a ﬁshing vest plus a life vest can be very
uncomfortable.
Our MP Life Vest is speciﬁcally designed to overcome this
problem. It inﬂates automatically, whenever needed.
The MP Life Vest can be worn on its own, or you can attach
one or more sections of the FV-200 ﬁshing vest to carry extra
gear should you need it – it’s so versatile!
The MP-Life Vest can be used on its own; the vest conforms to
the ISO 12402-3 ANNEX ZA Level 150 N norm.
The MP-Life Vest uses standard replacement gas cartridges
found in most water sport shops or purchased from us.

AA6 – AMADOU sheet
105 x 150 mm
Favoured by many anglers for over a century, AMADOU is one
of the best materials for drying ﬂies while still protecting the
hackle. Our AMADOU is obtained from sustainable sources and
receives a special treatment to make it soft –- ideal for CDC ﬂies.
Smaller pieces of amadou can be cut from the large sheets of raw
material (AA6).
The DA1 Dryer is best we have seen. It is a stylish accessory and
the two waterproof leather sides help keep the amadou clean and
dry, especially from wet ﬁngers.
The DC1 Dryer uses four layers of chamois and absorbs a lot of
water. It is a good alternative to amadou, but not as soft.

MagiC tool
The Magic Tool is undoubtedly an indispensable tool for every
ﬂy tier.
It will enable you to tie all kinds of ﬂies and to use many
components at one and the same time very easily.
You can create any pattern you can possibly think of which,
up until now, you may not have been able to visualize. Mixing
different feathers (soft or stiff), natural or synthetic dubbing – the
Magic Tool will do the trick! A whole new world of ﬂies with
exciting colours and materials will be opened up to you.
The idea is simple. It consists of placing all the materials needed
for a ﬂy (dubbing, hackles, CDC feathers, etc.)
in one of the 3 special clips.
MT1 (regular)
3 table clips (28, 35 and 45 mm) – 2 clamps ( 45, 55 mm)
3 dowels ( 10, 12, 15 mm) – User manual included
MT2 (large)
1 table clip (65 mm) – 1 clamp (78 mm)
3 dowels ( 10, 12, 15 mm) – User manual included
All the components are then aligned, trimmed and transferred
from the clip to one of the two special clamps. The materials
held by the clamp are then placed into a dubbing loop and this
“hackle substitute” is wrapped around the shank of the hook simple!
The Magic Tool comes with table clips, clamps and full
instructions. Three wooden dowels are also supplied
to help with winding and cutting synthetic material such
as Flashabou and Crystal Flash in small strands of exactly the
same size.

We have developed a range of unique ﬂy tying tools, based
on 15 years experience. We have tried to create an organic harmony
between form and function.
MP TT Bobbin (#25): The bobbin of bobbins. You could thread
this bobbin without even looking and can also adjust the thread
tension to your liking.
Thread spool replacement is effortless. The MP Bobbin incorporates a
wire loop for thread dubbing loops and spins perfectly on its axis.
On the left side
Clamp (#10) : specially designed to partially close a dubbing loop to
incorporate a second or third component.
Pefectly balanced
Needle (#20) : sharp with a short handle, this needle is perfect to split
the tying thread.
MP-Pliers (#30): specially designed to grip up to 3 CDC feathers at
a time. The spring grip system does not damage the stems yet holds
them ﬁrmly. Pat. Pending
Whip-ﬁnisher (#40) : the design allows you to tie tiny knots, especially
useful for small hook sizes. The tool rotates through the handle.
#60 - Small
#61 - Medium
#10 - Clamp
#20 - Needle
#30 - Pliers
#40 - Finisher
MP-Twister (#50) : the ingenious spring ring allows you to open and
close your dubbing loop easily (no weight is needed).
In addition, the rotating handle, long arms and ﬂexibility between the
two, makes dubbing much easier by allowing
the dubbing thread to be wrapped over the hook shank
without interfering with the bobbin holder.
Scissors : (#60 – Small & curved, #61 – Medium & straight,
#70 – Large & straight) These have a simple yet functional design.
They are available individually or in sets (see page 16).

For small ﬂies, dubbing loops tend to incorporate too much thread.
Using the Split Second Thread tying becomes easier,
ﬂy bodies are slimmer and you can dub and whip-ﬁnish your ﬂy in
one procedure.
The MP-Floss is excellent for thorax bodies and, being stretchable,
is ideal for splitting tails and wings.

During the next decade, we are sure that many great patterns will
be developed.
The secret of good ﬂy tying is to use top quality materials. We
pride ourselves in providing the ﬂy tying world with the best CDC
feathers available, both natural (in white, beige, and dark-black) as
well as in a variety of dyed colours.
The characteristics of CDC (Croupion De Canard)
Light and soft material.
Tough and strong ﬁbers.
Semi-translucent ; ﬂies tied with CDC have a more life-like
quality than ﬂies tied with other, more opaque materials.
Highly aerodynamic ; when cast, the CDC collapses but, at
the end of the cast, it expands acting as a parachute as the ﬂy
descends to the water. It therefore makes casting easier and ﬂy
presentation more delicate.
Highly hydrodynamic – under water every ﬁlament pulsates
with life even in the gentlest ﬂow or on the slowest retrieve.
Folds like real ﬂy tissue when a ﬁsh takes a CDC ﬂy into
its mouth. In this way, ﬁsh accept CDC ﬂies more readily, and
are much slower to reject them, than ones made of harder
materials.
In addition to this, our Magic Tool technology gives us a whole
new range of opportunities, mixing colours and components, both
natural and new.
In order to preserve the very ﬁne structure of our CDC feathers,
we have developed our own, secret and unique production
processes. Unlike other manufacturers, we specify that no
detergents, acids, or excessive heating
is used. In addition, we have special ﬁnishing processes
that ensure our CDC feathers are the very best.

CDC oil
The CDC oil is used as a protecting
“barrier” cream. A drop on the body
of your ﬂies will protect them
from ﬁsh slime. The oil comes
in a small bottle which can be
attached to your vest.

Generally our larger ﬂies incorporate different materials
for different effects. For example, Ice FIBER ﬁshes differently
to Ice FUR. However, all our materials have just the right amount of
pliability, neither too soft nor too stiff and we choose the right amount
(quantity & length) to get the right FISH-CATCHING effect in the
water.
Just try our ﬂies in the water margin before ﬁshing;
you’ll be amazed at their action.

CDC Flies: why, when and how?
Since 1990, I have created a comprehensive
series of CDC ﬂies that cover the entire range
of trout ﬂies, at all stages and for nearly all
situations.
You will notice that the ﬂies are numbered
rather than named. This is because there is
often very little to distinguish between the
sub-imago stages of different species, so giving
different names to, what would essentially be
the same ﬂy, would be impractical.
Similarly, in Europe, for example, there are
tens of species named Baetis, yet they are all
small to medium sized ﬂies with olive and blue
wings.
For us ﬂy tiers (and anglers!) the most
important characteristic to get right is the
silhouette of the ﬂy. In general, this is
determined by two factors - the type of ﬂy we
are trying to imitate, and its life-cycle stage.
For example, Mayﬂy, Caddis, Stoneﬂies, and
terrestrials all have different shapes. Within
each of these groups, different stages in
their life cycle will present the ﬂy tier with
a completely different set of patterns to tie.
Lastly, but still important, the size of ﬂy should
be chosen and its colour.
of your dry ﬂies.
Once you have caught a ﬁsh, the following
action will help clean any ﬁsh slime off CDCtreated ﬂies. First, strip off about 3 meters of
line and cast forward forcefully so that the ﬂy
hits the water hard and sinks. Let it sink about
30cm, point the rod at the ﬂy and take up any
slack line so that the line, rod, and arm are all
in line. At this point raise the rod sharply so
that the ﬂy moves quickly through the water so
removing any slime from the CDC-protected
ﬂy.
For small ﬂies (size #14 and smaller) we
recommend that a few rapid false casts will
be enough to dry your CDC-treated ﬂy
sufﬁciently well to be cast out again.
For larger sizes, clean it in the water and use
the amadou to dry it.
CDC is by far the best substance to give the
illusion of a natural live insect above, as well as
below, the surface.
After tying on a dry ﬂy, apply just one drop of
our CDC oil to the body of the ﬂy. As well as
waterprooﬁng the ﬂy, it will protect it against
ﬁsh slime, acting as a kind of “barrier cream”.
This will signiﬁcantly enhance the durability

The Magic Head will change the way you
ﬁsh and the way ﬁsh react to your ﬂies.
The versatile Magic Head can be ﬁshed
pointing backwards, giving your ﬂies a
normal streamer-style, up and down head
action; or they can be ﬂipped forwards,
giving your patterns more side-to-side
action.
Advantages
Recommendations
- Soft and lightweight head
- Straight eye hooks are recommended
- Does not reduce the gap of hooks

Magic Head & Synthetics
A good choice.
Start by forming a layer of thread, push the Magic Head over the hook eye,
secure with some wraps of tying thread, then complete the ﬂy. Straight shank
hooks recommended.
Adjust the size of the Magic Head to the hook size by cutting down, following
the edge. Cutting, on the weighted side, we will increase the wiggling effect by
30%.

You can weight your ﬂies using beads, cones or eyes.
One thing to remember, the cut should always be on the weighted side.
