Very nice little bug dude. One I’ll add to my to-do list. Thank you for another one dude. Keep safe.

Nice simple tie!

[@jdigioia1130]

The material link leads to the Wooly Baetis pattern and I’m not seeing this pattern on your site?! I’m most interested in the tailing fiber material. Thanks! 🎣

or bees wax/pure bees wax is what I use on Nano silk thread. Antron dubbing also works well.

[@chorizobandito8943]

Why that thread specifically?

[@bradstrong4155]

How durable is the flex material as a body? Will it tear if you grab the fly with hemostats to remove the fly from the fishes mouth?

[@carsonreneau720]

Don't use barbs and you won't need hemostats.

It is durable; I think Cheech stated this in his video instructions :)

[@markallenbell3868]

If you’re worried about durability, hit it with a dab of UV. Like Bonehard or something thin.
