I’ve watched your channel forever. You don’t get the simplest thing, Jim. It’s the form. Gracious. Hate to say it. But, I had to.

Yout videos are amazing..I think alot of people might think they are a bit slow..however they are very easy to understand and I am tying great flies because of them.

Don't forget to save the old rod blank. I've repaired several broken rods by using sections of rod blank to make internal " stents" to join the broken rod sections.

Does the head cement, once dried, make that collar crusty, and harden the feathers that seemed dabbed? Is that no big deal?

No they won't get hard the little that gets on them is minor. Thanks for the comment.

I tie it without the wings. Have to buy a certain feather just for the wings plus I'm not convinced the wings are visible when buried in the hackle. Been fishing it for over 30 years.
@TheFlymanJim3 ай бұрын
I agree the wings aren't a vital part of the fly. Just trying to teach beginners the proper way to tie them. If you tie allot with grizzly hackle ,(such as a Griffith's Gnat), You will have plenty of hackle tips to save for wings.

Hey Jim quick question. I just heard about this pattern so I googled it to learn more. However I'm seeing two pretty distinct patterns both saying they're west branch(of the penobscot) caddis. Some of them are this style and the others look more like a hornberg. Both say they're originally tied by Eddie. Any thoughts?
@TheFlymanJim3 ай бұрын
You did the research, so you'll know better than I. I like this pattern as it rides low in the water like the natural.

Nice job on the articulated mayfly. When I tye an articulated I use a piece of stainless wire from the bead wire for the tail & the connection to the hook. I pull out one strand from the 19 to use. Thanks for your time and knowledge Dave Hughes 🎣🤠 Rolla MO

You are truly an expert at this. Fine job on this crappy killer. I normally put a dot of Sally's on the bead's ends to keep the shafts from coming out where they were cut off. Fine job thanks for your time and knowledge, Dave Hughes 🎣🤠 Rolla MO.
