I tie a pink and white #2 long shank and cast at night for trout under my dock lights lit from below shining up and dock lights shinning downward for 32 years. This shows how come you miss strikes. I live on St. John’s river in jax Fla … I like your tiring methods 😊

How many times do you speed it up?

This fly us killer for bass ,crappie and bluegill as well

Tremendous

Damn the disappointment on your face with such cheap packaging for a 800 dollar vise. They scamed you. I got myself a chinese one made of machined aluminium for 89 dollars.

I tie something like this for Oak orchard Creek when the brown trout and steelhead are in. Except i use a back Marabou, purple cactus chenille and black hackle. And I do the reverse with purple Marabou, black cactus chenille and purple hackle. Some times I'll use a Flo orange cone head as a hot spot.

What are you doing off camera.. why make a video if you not showing us.. just yak yak and show what you feel like... 👎

What size copper bead is that??

Awsome work!!!

Suggest wearing a light colored shirt when tying a dark fly.

Very nice , very effective 🩵🩵🩵

Hermosa como quedo esa mosca

Great job. You were very detailed and precise and didn’t seem rushed. Thank you for sharing.

Nice ty!! Tight lines🐛🐜🕷️!!!!!

Music sucks

Wow! The wings, the antenna! Looks amazing!

Nice ❤

thanks for the suggestion of the 90 degree on the tag end!

Thanks. Good tip.

Honestly this made a lot of sense slow down analyze what you do

It’s not really a fly though. More of a crappie jig isn’t it.

Have you used/tried any other colors in addition to black?

Very nice.

This is the best example of tying this knot I have ever seen. Thank you sir for making this video.

Good call sir

Excellent ty

Looks Nasty! Love it.

Nice tie, keep up the great work.

Hare and copper NZ style

I love purple for the simple reason that like black, it can shine in clear or dirty water.

Over the years ive seen so many nymphs shine on local great lakes trout streams. Ive used spinning gear, centerpin and flyrod, these days mostly the centerpin. My dad isnt a barbarian like me, hes strictly fly 😂. Anyway this.past season we did well but couldnt get anything on nymphs aside from a few on black prince nymphs. On days i struggled, id put on a small mini foo jig. All black. Possibly the crudest bait ever uses for trout. Just a black jighead and a piece of feather which looks to just be saddle hackle. Little action, yet destroys steelhead in clear warer better than jigs and flys that look way better. So, im tying a bunch of larger black nymphs with 2-3XL shanks. We will see how they do. But i love your channel. I, like many of those i grew up with in my small town, messes up amd got into drugs. By some miracle i got out of it and fishing, especially for steelhead, got me through these first couple years (two years on 6/21/24) and tying jigs and flies have been a big help. Especially with me going back to school and needing to release stress

Where can i get ostrich with longer fibers? What ive got isnt long enough for the scuds i want to make and now i want some for uses like this. Looks like it can be used almost like organza ribbon too

Great video and pattern! Thanks What size tippet would you recommend for this? I'm using a 9' 5wt. Thanks

Makes sense , now you have shown us , why didn't we think of it eh. Thank you .

I used a store bought variation of this wooly bugger and had a great time on many large brook trout.. Now I will take your advice and tie my own! Thanks for the great tutorial.

Shitballs. Thats nice.

Nice tie! Perfect little euro bug👌

Nice fly.

Solid work

I'm late to the party but I'm here, and I subbed!! Great heads up video!!

Just got mine today. I went with green. It's pretty sick looking.

Sweet bugger. I'll give that a shot

I see your using Togen hooks & beads, how long did it take to get your order? Since they relocated the shipping to Alberta is extremely slow…

Mighty Fine work here. 🧨

Hi Watched the video. Yes! I did enjoy it and thank you for taking the time to edit it. I really like the idea of using the dubbing instead of Antron body, also I think I’m going to do what you do with the flashabou. Do each side separately. Really like that way. Thanks really learned something from your video. All the best David

Hi, I have been tying these patterns for over forty years, but never in pink! I do like your combination and will try it out. I mainly fish for steelheads either in very fast rivers on our volcanic plateau that flow into Lake Taupo during the spawning runs in our winter or the river mouths in summer or at night. I have watched my son fishing his Euro nymphing set up and often thought how that would fish with a streamer fly. I tend to nymph up to the head of the pool using a #6 rod with tungsten beaded nymphs on a #14 hook and a #8 swing rigged rod with a tungsten beaded wooly bugger tied on a long #2 hook down the pool towards the rapid’s. Makes for an interesting days out fishing! Thanks for the effort you have put into your explanation and I wish you luck and tight lines. Cheers mate. Harera

nice tie. nice variation on the classic.

Thank you for tip. I was having the same issue.

Huh. You just upped my wing game lol. Never thought of that for some reason.

Ooooooh, that's sexy!
