Your "basically a fishing fly" would go into a mere mortals presentation box. Beautiful as always Mr McPhail. Thanks for sharing.

One of the very first flies I tied and used over 50 years ago. I caught many trout, crappie, bluegill and small bass using that pattern. You have inspired me to tie it once again and fish it for old time sake. Thank you.

if what I have read is correct, this fly of Scottish origin was tied somewhere in the mid 1800’s and after being included in Charles Orvis’s Fishing with the Fly in 1883, then in Mary Orvis Marbury’s Favorite Flies and Their Histories in 1892, it found quite the following in America. I’ve seen what appears to be many variations of the professor and the blue professor, but never really knew that they were variants of the one you posted. I’m in agreement with @michael Ross and the comment he posted requesting that you demonstrate tying the Queen of the Waters. I love following each of you videos and learning new techniques, but it has been quite some time since I saw a fly and then took the time to search out its origin and history. I am grateful for something new and unexpected. Thanks for all you do for our community Davie!

Davie their are flies and then there are flies that mean something. Fifty years ago, I tied on a professor, the first time out by myself and I put the Professor on and went to fish a corner pool on The Cowichan River. I'd like to say I was successful, but I wasn't too lucky that day. I used a #12 Professor and had some half hearted taps on it, but I was not unhappy. I raised a couple of fish, missed a couple and honestly from that day on, I just felt like the Professor was my fly! I did catch fish on it, just not that day. Still I smile when I'm tying it. Thanks for tying it!!

Thanks for sending me obliquely to Ray Bergman's book 'Trout' I watched this and started thinking about other classic flies with red tails (Ibis etc) That stoated up my first married winging attempt - the Parmacheene Belle -which led me to other American fly patterns. Iin short order I came across Ray Bergman and the "Brandreth" - which is very similar to the "Professor" After that, I definitely have to have a swatch through all the interesting wet fly patterns in his fantastic compendium - and there are a lot! Cheers 👍

I was going to suggest you tie a “Queen of Waters” which I guess is the Prof’s younger sister. Both among the top flies here in the US when Mary Orvis Marbury compiled her book.

Another wet fly favorite from my early days of fly fishing. I didn’t think it looked buggy. I put it on because it looked pretty & was pleased to find how well it worked. This is another for the “To-do” tying list. Being lazy, I find stretch floss is much faster for the body than traditional floss, especially since I can wrap using my bobbin holder to control the floss rather than my fumble fingers.

I used this interesting traditional when I first started trout fishing..at Cameron reservoir ,Fife..1974..and caught two memorable browns with it. Maybe I should keep one in my fly box as a memento ...along with the Hardys, Gold Butcher...and Teal and Yellow. Always lovely to see you tie these great patterns Davie, Simon Artley,Manchester

But it is difficult Gizmo, really difficult, one of the toughest in its class I'd say; not to tie to catch fish, but to avoid clumsy body, or disproportion there - all due to the fat fickle floss (FFF) - then fix good wings from wild duck, hackle w/o going to false hackle, and then to tie in all this w/o getting an ugly head. Press Google + pics and you will see. But, as I always say, Davie's tradition go back all the way to Dame Juliana, and I've never seen a more beautiful Professor.

Another great tie, one of the first flies I ever used. Have you heard of a variant with Bronze mallard wing Davie? Used to be in use on Loch Ness for salmon. I wondered if you had heard of it, and it's name?
