Beautiful ty. Very professional 🦗🪰🐜. Tight lines!!!!

[@Makflies]

Thank you so much 😊😊

[@jackmasters9953]

Awesome creation Mak!!! I’ve tied something similar and have been absolutely crushing the bluegills and crappies as an ice fly this winter. A couple tied on drop shot loops above the tungsten jig is the ticket 😃😃. Will definitely try this pattern and variations on the fly rod this spring. Thanks again. More please 😃🎣🎣🐟🐟

[@Makflies]

Thank you Jack I am glad that you had a great success my friend, well done on tying some thing similar, like I always says you can tie your own style or colours, whatever suits you, once again thank you & keep it up Regards,, Mak :)))

[@TheRaginghalfasian]

Very nice Max. I enjoy watching your work. You have a great touch.

[@Makflies]

Thank you so much friend 😊😊😊

[@freddefelice1419]

I try to watch all your videos Max. I have learned so much from what you have demonstrated. Thanks so much for what you do. Years ago in the early 1990's I had a class from Eric Leiser and he showed me a few things and in no time I was tying the Chuck Caddis. A few years later he wrote the Forward in Paul Schmookler and Ingrid V. sils book. Rare and Unusual Fly Tying Materials. I was very lucky to get a copy autographed by both authors plus Eric Leiser as well. Eric has passed on now but he contributed much to Fly Fishing. He was a real fine gentleman, like you. Thanks again Max. Fred DeFelice

[@ErikDeMann]

Heh, last winter I stole your green gammarus concept, and ended up tying a bunch of different versions based on the idea. This pink one was one of them, and it ended up catching me a nice handful of seatrouts during the spring season, so I owe you a thank you for the idea, Mak.

[@Makflies]

That's awesome Erik, I am glad you had a great success, thank you for the nice comment :)) Regards,, Mak

Завтра под вечер по пробую эту мушку по работе по форели в чернореченском коньене, очень подходит под размер и модель приманки в этих местах, спасибо за видео!!!!!!!!

[@Makflies]

Спасибо, друг из России, попробуйте, вы не разочаруетесь, я рада, что вам понравилось :)) С уважением, Мак

[@Crimeanland]

@@Makflies я из Крыма

[@Crimeanland]

@@Makflies так,результат сегодняшнего лова такой- форель я взял, но пришлось по экспериментировать с леской и спиннингом,когда отработал все нюансы я наконец то начал ловить,эта мушка очень хорошо сработала в стремнине - в быстрой пенной воде, брала агрессивно но не с первого раза,на каждый пятый и шестой - седьмой заброс,потом примерно столько же холостых забросов,затем снова два иногда три подряд улова и снова тишина, пробовал сменить мушку и лов тут же прекратился, дальнейшие попытки ни к чему не привели,мушка работает отлично!!! Только вот нужно леску и проводку подобрать правильную,супер!!!!! И у меня лак облез и мушка начала разтрепываться,эт потому что материала такого как у вас ,у меня нет,но в остально я ее скопировал идеально, спасибо вам огромное! Результат оболденный!!!!!!

[@Makflies]

@@Crimeanland Thank you friend, I am happy you like it, fishing is funny game, when it works it works brilliant, when it doesn't work it is frustrating but still we love it, keep it up my friend :))))
