Fly Tyers

Per Tofting

My name is Per Tofting and I live in Brønderslev in North Jutland. I love being out in nature, like looking for mushrooms or wood for fly holders etc. and not least for fishing. I have tried a lot of different fishing and the past several years, it has mainly been for the coast’s sea trout, sea bass and mullet. In the stream, it is mainly hunting for sea trout and preferably with foam flies. I do my favorite fishing for about a month each year when Emphemera danica dances over the banks.

I love tying flies and especially creating new patterns and having them tested on the fish afterwards. It will mostly be coastal flies. I am lucky enough to have good fly tying friends where I live, and in the winter we meet once a week for fly tying and a single beer. We go by the name the Grimbergen Club.

I post my flies on instagram, on the account pertofting, and constantly practice to get the pictures better.

I will try my luck with a little more salmon fishing in Denmark in the next few years, so I can get my first Danish salmon.
