Fly Tying My No.1 Salmon Fly

[@malcolmbrown5261]

Very good instructional video,

Glad it was helpful!

Nicely done Michael. Great video. I have to tie a couple up to try out on the Derwent this coming season. Many thanks. 🙂👍

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]

Thanks Neil, it's definitely worth having a couple in the box. I've had some great days with it. On a couple of occasions I've came down a pool with something else on without a touch, then took a run down with this and hit a fish. In fact one of my vest days ever was landed 7 salmon and everyone was on this pattern

[@neilmcclure4401]

That's been a day to remember. I'll look forward to giving them a go. Thanks again Michael.

Brilliant mate, needs to get some of them capes to tie a few 👌

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]

Hen necks would do just as good but I'm trying to grab hold of a few more saddles

Nice tupe bring more Tube like very much 🤛👍😎

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]

Will do

[@davidkerr2285]

Nice one Michael I have been threatening to do a few Tubes for ages but still haven't got round to them. Maybe I'll do myself a few Willie Ginn's ?

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]

Aye you can't go far wrong with Black, Orange and Yellow. I use a lot of tubes in my own fishing

Hi Michael, Really enjoy your video’s. Can you please tell me the overall length of the fly. Plus how do you fish the fly……have not tied many Snelda type flies because I feel There is not a lot of movement in the materials. When fishing with this fly do you ‘Move it’. Or just let it swing round.. Thanking you….Keep the video’s coming…….Tight Lines..👍👍👍

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]

Bi Harry, glad you liked the video. Overall fly length is a out 50mm and generally I let the fly swing round itself in the current though in slower moving water I will hand line it a bit.

@@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870 hi Michael……Many thanks for you swift reply/advice. I will certainly be tying a few of this fly. Most certainly agree with your comment re Jungle Cock Capes.. I always buy best quality and end up…like you say….left with the bigger Size feathers so I am really pleased that you have found a way to use them.. Thanking you…….👍👍👍

[@michaelcurrieflyfishing6870]
