Fly Tying the Magnus with Barry Ord Clarke

A popular Danish pattern designed for salt water sea trout. The Magnus can be tied in various sizes but I believe works best in # 6-8. With only basic materials required, just about any fly tyer can tie this. You can also substitute the hares mask dubbing for the body with ice dubbing to make the Polar Magnus, same pattern, more bling!

a saltwater sea-trout killer!! ive used this to great effect as a dropper with lures, love the salt patterns, thanks barry 👍👍

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you.

[@HeideMason]

Thanks (as always) for the great video. What scissors did you use? They appear to have a spring on them and I'm curious.

[@Thefeatherbender]

The wire is a spring that you can have on or off. When you have it on the scissors become spring loaded shears and when you have it off, they are regular scissors. www.54deanstreet.it/shop/product/vkm191241zis-kopter-scissors-ultimate-spring-system-7809?category=14

Awesome video Barry ! Do you ever pint or color your bead chain eyes ? If so, do you use indelible markers, model paint, powder paint or something else?

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks, and yes I do, normally red for this pattern.

Nice fly. Keep them videos coming. Looks more like a small bait fish to me.
