Fly Tying the Screaming Banshee caddis/sedge with Barry Ord Clarke

[@philipjones6083]

Incredible skill Barry sir

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you.

[@nicolelewis1828]

This is such a sweet fly! Very involved tie. I'm going to hate to lose one of these!

[@Thefeatherbender]

A nice pattern indeed Nicole, Its all about proportions, spend time on getting them right. Good luck.

[@KBosch-xp2ut]

Amazing pattern!! Looks like a deer fly or horsefly from this area!

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you.

[@brianstevens3858]

Reminds me a lot of My Grandfathers Stump Stranger, main difference is length {Tired on a long shank}, and front fray trimmed to hook bend length so would swim when soaked.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Good to know!

[@comesahorseman]

Different! Thanks, Barry.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@blairmcalister4628]

Brilliant pattern. I'll be tying these using some red deer hair, off an old stag i shit years ago...thanks for the tutorial. Regards from New Zealand.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Blair, I hope that that is a typo, for your own sake...

[@m.t.pokkets86]

Never shit deers!

[@ias400]

Indeed a 1st class pattern. I'm also going to tie up a few on a size 8 and even 6, I want to try them out for steelhead (use it like a bomber) in late summer and the fall. Barry, thank you again.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Ira, yes I have heard that they work really well for Steelhead in larger sizes.

[@paulsangster9153]

Interesting pattern. Looks great! Thanks Bender.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Paul, it works a treat when pulled through the surface.

[@seanmooney3907]

Beautifully done! I am not sure I have the patience for this one. I will give it a go come spring. The only rule about my tying is, no deer(or elk) hair in the house. Makes too much mess. I don't have a dedicated tying room. All the best and thanks for sharing Sean

[@blairmcalister4628]

My dog sleeps on her deer skin every day...and yeah, it goes everywhere...))))

[@wdnpushpole]

My favorite fly to use but difficult to tie

[@Thefeatherbender]

Not that difficult, goes quickly once you have tied a few dozen.

[@robertperman8967]

Sweet ty . Tight lines🪰🦗🐜!!!!

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you.

[@entzijams]

This is awesome. Looks like a cicada to me.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Nicholas, I guess if you tied it large enough it would work as a cicada.

[@TheFlymanJim]

Great job and instruction!

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Jim.

Barry It’s the first time I've seen someone else use the double hair wrap (my term for it) other then me, I figured it’s been around but somehow I haven't seen anybody else use it. I’m not arrogant enough to thing I invented it but your using it does at least validate that it’s an actually “thing” thanks🙂

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Dave, thanks. Yes I have been using and teaching the 'double hair wrap' as you call it, (I'v never given it a name) for I don't know how many years now, but it is in my book from 2010. As with many useful techniques, I probably have seen it somewhere or stumbled on it by accident! But a very useful technique it is indeed for deer hair.

[@pierrelalonde4894]

Beautiful 👍 im going to give this one a go🙂

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Pierre. Have fun!

[@rubinconineski5730]

It is very nice and simple.

[@rubinconineski5730]

But sometimes fish eat very bad looking items (just colours or smell from chicken lether) . Remember this. My neighbour make very bad looking items, but he catches fish a lot 5 kg fish per 4 hours. He is champion on the river .

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you Rubinco.

[@marksleeper3752]

Barry you are a phenomenal tier, any you share some great tying tips Thanks

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Mark, sorry I just got your comment! Thanks for watching there are more to come.

[@andreasherbeck9230]

Perfect work! Nice

[@jobrey82]

wow looks great

[@smickerflies]

A corker Barry 👍🎣😎

[@ipod1978]

First class pattern

[@ezloans4u]

Just WOW, u make things look so simple, again my hat is off to you, guess I’ll be asking for gift certificates for my birthday to my favorite suppliers to update my supplies

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Larry, good luck and choose your materials wisely!

[@twsdlbh]

I think it looks like a beetle and will be effective in southern Indiana.

[@Thefeatherbender]

I'm sure that it would work as a beetle.

[@miroslavz.2996]

Excellent ❤️ nice work thanks

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Miroslav.

[@marksleeper3752]

wow nice job great vid

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Mark

[@kerrypitt9789]

This is quite an unusual pattern. I like it, will at some point try thing a few to try. Do you think there would be any advantage to putting a coat or two of UV epoxy on the shellback to help trap air underneath and increase the signature of the fly?

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Kerry, yes its a great pattern, Not sure, it will probably make it sink!

[@kerrypitt9789]

@@Thefeatherbender I will let you know Sir! 😃

[@bradyneeb2944]

Awesome fly. What kind of vise do you use?

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Brady, thanks. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmq6pJ54l9Sil7c vice link

[@Recovery12Life]

I like these flies but i always have a problem with them turning into helicopters and twist up my leader

[@Thefeatherbender]

Try making the wings a little shorter.

[@the_ratt9949]

what brand of Dieneir do you use

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Matthew, there is only one brand of Dyneema, but you can also use GSP thread.

[@HuntingCreatures]

So, you said you fish with this stripping in?

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Fly life, yes like a adult caddis fly.

[@shanehawryliak7636]

Dude!

[@jeffnotti9932]

[@Thefeatherbender]

Excellent Jeff, let me know how you get on with them.
