Two very simple but very effective dabblers, neither of which I like to leave home without. Being tied with hen, both are extremely versatile in terms of depth/line/leader position, but will feature more prominently down the leader (middle or tail) and/or on sinking lines - wets tied with cock coming into their own on floating lines and/or higher up the leader. As far as light goes, the silver is a big fan of darker days, and gold, brighter days. I'd opt for the gold on peat-stained water, but both are excellent all-rounders, and will work well in most conditions.
