Great fish!!!

Cool!! Thanks for the video. Maybe a stupid question but, the thread color dictates the color of the fly, not the vinyl?

Great video!

Sweet, great vid!

Beautiful Brookies!

You need new scissors !

Nice tie!

any chance you can try making a video for the bare basic setup rig for the absolute beginner fishing in places like San Juan or Pecos, etc.?

My great grandmother used to love in Farmington. Wish I was old enough to know to fish there when I was a kid. Bucket list fishery for sure!

Beautiful video Jackson. Brook Trout and Crocs 🙌🏼!!!

I like this video. It was short and to the point and you made some very valid observations that I think will benefit people quite a bit. Your delivery and annunciation, etc. was well done and you’re easy to listen to. I am an old timer and fish the San Juan river below Navajo Dam in Northwest New Mexico and I certainly agree with presentation as being the key. I become very stubborn swapping flies because I know they will eat things that come right down into their face, but I also feel that that is a negative and that I should probably switch bugs more often when slow. this was good Food for thought that I can respect. I have a major float trip tomorrow with a group of buddies and I will implement some of what you said for sure because lately the fish have been super picky as to what they eat. Anyway, just wanted to say good job and, I look forward to watching another one of your videos. Take care, Scott.

Real nice. Delightful little stream. But crocs? Really?

Great video! That is very beautiful country man 🤩. I have yet to catch a brook trout, hopefully soon. 😊

Twisting the line like that seems to negate the purpose of an easily, and quickly adjustable threaded indicator. Oros definitely tend to slip when attached to anything thinner than 1x. Most of the time I end up using the washer from an airlock on my oros and that stays in place better than any other indicator I’ve fished. I’ve heard air-lock’s version of the oros holds a little better, but still slips a little bit.

Just found your channel! Lots of nice videos! I’m headed to Durango in about 3 weeks and I’ll be hitting the San Juan for sure. Will midge patterns be a go to in July?? Keep posting these great videos!

Sounds like a lovely time!

Missouri river??

I just tied a couple of dozen of these, some with wire some without. I've been to the hole twice this week, batting zero.

What fly rod and reel do you use and do you have a universal lure?

Hell yeah John

Did you once live in Albuquerque?

Very comforting and cool to watch you wrap flys

Enjoyed fishing with you Jack. Have a fantastic summer up there.

I like it!

Here the synthetic is equally buoyant as CDC in that it also supports bubbles of air. While being many times more durable.

Looks like fun. Were you able to sight fish them yet? What flies were you using?

Hey Jack, Love your videos brother. Thanks. 37 mile hike to the cable hole??? from where??

😮 very nice! 🔥🔥🔥

Dude you are awesome!! I have been fly fishing for 50 years plus!! and you couldn't have explained it better new folks and anyone!!!!!! also I subscribed and thumbs up'ed you!!

Used the pattern Tuesday and caught some 20”+ monsters. Used it during the midget hatch but deep. Thanks!

Nice tie Jack!

Believe in JESUS today, confess and repent of your sins. No one goes to heaven for doing good but by believing in JESUS who died for our sins. "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. "(Romans 10:9-10)☺️

Thank you!!!

What’s its name??

I cant seem to find ostrich herl like that. Ths fibers are too damn small and dont really work

Sweet tie bro.

I love stumbling on to a new niche on the internet and having no idea what the person’s talking about. “Pupating midge” ??? “Fly” ? 🤨 are these real terms or are y’all just pretending?

Great vud great song i subbed

Could you use a glass bead to get the same reflection and maybe save a little weight to make it more buoyant?

What the point in making that fly no sooner do I cast it I lost it.

I caught a gorgeous rainbow on one of these the other day 6 in the morning!

Somewhere someone is pulling into his driveway after getting skunked throwing the most beautiful flies.ever created only to click on a video of a guy talking about killing it with a fly thats just some thread

Chocolate or olive give a more accurate indication of shade and depth of tone required. Chocolate indicating a warm shade of brown. Olive be it light, medium, dark or golden. Again a natural and neutral tone rather than bottle, highland, or even a fluorescent in your face tone. I hope this helps your viewers. Like yourself I prioritise , size, silhouette, colour, and tone of pattern with gauge of the hook also a major factor influencing the choice. Allow for the balance matching the expected fish size and how fast do you need that hook to reach depth in the water or do you need that pattern to remain on or just under the surface. Information that many newbies have not yet considered and some ole hands can forget about. As in allowing for flow of water in faster or more turbulent water a heavier hook is needed to get down in the water be it using a stronger hook using a bead on the fly or a split shot to get that fly down.

I won a fly tying contest with that pattern.... ;)

Can you make a fly using a sponge or random household materials

Nice bro killed it.

Love this! Able to pick up a bunch just watching you.

I was trying to simplify this pattern. Red Sharpie. Red thread. Too many steps. I found some size 22 red hooks. Done.

Where can i get THAT ostrich herl? The fibers on mine are so short its hard to get the legs effect even on 18-20 size hooks

Its because we are pretecious, Love yhis fly
