Nice pattern 💯🎣🎣🎣🎣 I must tie some. A tip when doing articulated streamers not to get your fingers caught on the hook, I buy a bag of 200 little rubber ear ring stopper for like 3€ on Amazon and I put a stopper on the hook and this way you don’t get your fingers stuck on the hook when tying 😊

Thanks for the tip

Good looking black articulated streamer George...would an olive version work well too in brighter conditions ?...nice to tie something up a bit bigger at the vise for a change compared to little nymphs and dries :)

[@springerspanielful]

Depends on the mood of the fish on a given day.

[@david1888walsh]

I knew a few of them in my time.... angry birds 😅

[@springerspanielful]

No doubt.......

[@sigurdurmarolafsson4183]

Ditto😂😂😂😂

[@robertdoesfishing]

Great looking fly! Where would one be able to get that body material you put in the dubbing loop?

[@springerspanielful]

No idea

[@robertdoesfishing]

@@springerspanielful 😂 helpful 👍

[@backpackingireland8624]

Outstanding George , making things very clear and concise 👌🇮🇪

[@springerspanielful]

Many thanks...

Great stuff George. I've been making Waddington shanks with Mk1 paperclips for years. Cant beat thinking outside the box.

[@springerspanielful]

Right on

[@jonathonstephenson8170]

Cool video. Love the use of paperclips instead of expensive articulated shanks. Bet the broken wires from BOA wading boots would be good if using 2 hooks. Thanks for video.👍🎣

[@springerspanielful]

Cool idea

[@joosepflies]

An interesting video, thank you. I couldn't help noticing that you did not use your new Jvice for this tie. Is there a reason for that? Are you somehow disappointed with the Jvice?

[@springerspanielful]

Not at all, I have the excellent J Vise set up on my tying desk, the other is just handy for portability and for filming.

[@RodgerWilson-c7y]

Excellent George, I like the idea with the paper clips I have heaps of them, I will definitely tie that one up, never fished streamers before but getting geared up for them, to give them a try on my local river.

[@springerspanielful]

Have fun

[@paulcarter5731]

Nice and thanks. Unfortunately wouldn't be ablr to use articulated flies on my waters, neither stillwaters and definitely not rivers

[@springerspanielful]

Sorry to hear that

[@joefortune5040]

Excellent video George. Looking forward to seeing it fished.

[@springerspanielful]

On the way, stay tuned.

[@davidquinn7144]

Honestly mate a waste of time and effort .a length of braid is a far easier and better method .

[@springerspanielful]

Too many twists and tangles with braid, however each to his own..

[@Tomas.O.Sullivan]

great looking streamer . great video .

[@springerspanielful]

Much appreciated

[@burtonbrocious171]

[@michaelterry1147]

[@springerspanielful]

Correct!
