A beautiful simple fly, yet another flawless tutorial. This our first really spring day here in Co. Durham, There's warmth in the sun and a hatch of fly in the garden. Watching this builds the anticipation of the beginning of the season on the river! Thanks Davie.

Great instructions, I just learned something new. I never wound the thread thru the hackle like that before, but what a big difference it makes! So much easier that way. thanks Davie!

May I ask a central question on tying, Davie; winding the thread through the hackle was sth I saw when I learnt to tie in the mid 70s, but then I haven't really seen it. Cannot say I was using the technique much when I was at it in those days either, and arguably you don't really use it much either. Is this more to spread the hackle than to support it? Please comment if you get the time. /Hakan

Hi Hakan, When I first started tying I used to wind the thread through the hackle a lot as I was shown this by an old gentleman, it was a great method to make the flies much stronger as well as they lasted far longer..Another reason I found was that it helped keep the heads of the flies small especially when using the old pearsalls silk threads... All the very best Davie..

Davie, I noticed on this version you ran the thread through both hackles but on spectrumised version you only did it on the first. why? also is this the style of badger spider that you fish for spinner falls in the evenings, but with fluorescent thread bodies, that you told me about? same double hackles? atb Davie & thank you!
@DavieMcPhail8 жыл бұрын
Hi Joe Duca, The reason I never ran the thread through the partridge hackle in the spectrumized version was that I could fold back the hackle as the stem was much thinner unlike in the grey version as the stem of the grey partridge hackle was too thick to do this...As you may know at times you do need different methods of tying on feathers depending on the quality and condition they may be in.. All the very best Davie...

+Davie McPhail Thanks Davie, I was curious. you've told me before that the material tells you how to tye it, or something like that. either way, they're awesome flys. by the way, I watched you paint a Monet on Flickr. I left you a compliment but didn't know how to send it. I've always admired your sense of color in your dyed materials. you're an artist at the easle as well as the vise. Degas is my favorite of the impressionist. I've always liked to draw and studied art at community college. thanks for reply. atb to you.
