FSE Thread Baetis (Fast,Simple,Effective)

[@mlg2416]

Popping in to say that these are so fun to tie. I've been making them in all different colors, adding floss, trying different wires. And they work really well in Colorado creeks right now. Thank you!!

[@AboutTrout]

Thank you! Happy it’s working for you, thanks for checking out the channel.

[@jthrash75]

Nice tie, and cool looking travel vise. I usually just tie thread Frenchies with light brown thread. Gonna have to try this with the flashback now.

[@glenndotter5065]

Very cool. After 10 retinal sugeries in 2 years tying has become a chore, but this Even I can tye.

[@davidlee8999]

very nice tie when I use peacock for the thorax I tie it in forward of the eye then wind back I think it gives a neater head and the thread reinforces the herl when you wind it forwards to tie off the thorax cover

[@michaelshaw8370]

Just subscribed. I agree that bone dry is the best UV resin on the market. The supplied brush works even better if you trim it into a finer point.

[@AboutTrout]

Thank you! Great tip on the brush

[@brianfeeney9493]

Thanks James 🎉 Happy May and thanks for the Pattern !! Gonna Twist some up and ply our NW Michigan waters with them !!!! 🌟🎣💫

[@AboutTrout]

Been a great bug for us. Hope it works for you.

[@TJRainbowWarrior]

Looking really fit, James! 💪🏼 Great pattern.

[@GeorgeSemel]

Looks like a black marker on top and bottom. Simple enough pattern. I like simple and quick. Thou I just love tying and fishing PTs. I tie PT in 18 and 20 the way Frank Sawyer tied them, and boy, in late July thru Oct, do they work. I will be tying this one for sure.

[@AboutTrout]

I do prefer the profile of the English style PT over the American style. Thanks for checking out the video.

[@colemanfairburn1721]

Nice fly; what kind of shirt is that? I dig it!

[@dankochanek8056]

This is a rad little bug. Thanks for sharing!

[@jimholland1592]

Thanks James, glad to see your content 😉👍

[@miked.r.6671]

Simple But Deadly! Thats a cool Travel Vise!

[@jimhunter448]

Great pattern, great tie too..

[@robertperman8967]

Are these what they’re using on the San quan? In a size 20? Thank you!!!! Tight lines🕷️🐛🐜!!!!!

[@AboutTrout]

Absolutely! The San Juan has a large baetis population.

[@robertperman8967]

Thank you

[@alexargyros7186]

Great idea, James. Could you explain your hook choice? TMC 100 is a venerable hook that does work, but aren't there sharper and better hooking hooks coming out of the comp world?

[@AboutTrout]

Many of the comp hooks are dark which can darken the thread after resin is applied. Truth be told I think TMC has the best small bug hooks when I’m tying >20. Fullingmill is about to drop a line of midge hooks that I’ve been testing and I dig them.

[@alexargyros7186]

@@AboutTrout Thanks.

[@alexargyros7186]

It occurred to me that I'd love to know what hook you would use to tie nymphs such as these in larger sizes (say, 12-18)? Again, many thanks.

[@michaelterry1147]

Nice pattern. Like the whip finisher.

[@AboutTrout]

Thanks!

[@michaellowe3706]

Who on earth is this good looking clean shaven dude that has clearly kidnapped the bearded “James” I have seen on the river😂😂 jk looking good, great fly and hope to see ya out there soon!

[@AboutTrout]

😂

[@stiffiron]

What brand of resin is used there?

[@AboutTrout]

Solarez bone dry

[@maxbigelow8805]

A pheasant tail. Is there a reason you don’t use pheasant tail?

[@AboutTrout]

Because this isn’t a pheasant tail. It’s not tied with pheasant tail.

[@firstlast6159]

One question: were you trying not to touch or bumb the vise?

[@AboutTrout]

I shoot with a macro lens in manual focus. If I bump the vise it knocks the fly out of focus.

[@AboutTrout]

I shoot with a macro lens in manual focus. If I bump the vise it knocks the fly out of focus and ruins the video. It’s a surprisingly sturdy video for being so light. Thanks for watching!

[@jerryg957]

Anybody check the price on that vise, insane.

[@christophercook723]

The hairs from the Tails of horse areva free renewable recourse but work from the side not the back

[@futuremetz1]

I want a travel vise. But I need a case for materials that’s better than a giant bag of crap that’s missing key ingredients

[@acamparargentina]

My grial travel vise would be a Waldron Travel Vise, nothing can match it

[@AboutTrout]

I didn’t know LAW made a travel vise. Thanks for sharing. Just looked it up and it’s beautiful and packs down small. Can’t find any in production anymore. A piece of art.

[@acamparargentina]

@@AboutTrout A piece of art indeed, i dream with one of them for sure! Sadly as he passed away there isn't any chance anymore, except for a second hand one.

[@marcbousquier8056]

Merçi pour votre video Bonjour de France👍

[@AboutTrout]

Merci!

[@ntherrington]

You talked about how this a great vise but it sounds like you had to change your style significantly to use it.

[@AboutTrout]

Just for filming. The base is light so if bump it, the fly will get knocked out of focus of my Marco lens in its manual setting. It’s a great vise for travel but my Renzetti master is what I tie on daily. It’s a great solution for travel but I wouldn’t recommend it as your daily driver.

[@loosieclocker]

James looking clean shaven and skinny

[@mattlittle3330]

New baby is keeping him trim. 😁

[@waynegraff3942]

Reminds me of the Slim Shady.

What's going on ? I am watching you !

Te salut .imi place ca esti tinar dar gindesti ceea ce faci ,adica totul are logica .O zi buna

[@AboutTrout]

For sure

[@gt_outdoorexcursions]

me likey!

[@AboutTrout]

This one had cracked pretty hard for me on the San Juan. Easy box filler, but more importantly it’s very durable.

[@helgeo.sommer584]

[@attilathehamster6774]

Nice enough video but I could hardly hear you, even at full volume.

[@joef1299]

Sounds perfect on my end…?

[@mudfish620]

You’re lucky

[@patrickbarajas7340]

I like this guy's videos. But on mute.

[@AboutTrout]

Thanks for watching!

[@brucereinheimer9825]

Definitely not easier or quicker to tie than a pheasant tail.

[@AboutTrout]

To each their own 🤷

[@austinhaacke67]

As someone who guided for 12+ years, quick, simple and effective is to the way to go. Tying one or two is all fine and good but when you are tying 2-3 dozen at a sitting, the time constraints change a lot.

[@AboutTrout]

@@austinhaacke67 absolutely agree. I skip a lot of steps with patterns and it really doesn’t seem to matter at all. Anglers tend to forget that selling flies is a business. “Bin appeal” and what trout like are sometimes the same but most times they’re not.

[@16-BITFPV]

Fly tying is an art. If you really want to catch trout just use a piece of corn or a nightcrawler.

[@rrsnotyours]

Like oh my god fly tying like yah bro….sigh…

[@AboutTrout]

Tight

I love the hogans S and M. Similar in some ways and absolutely deadly. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJm2g6d3fcyVrposi=pPF2_sbqMje33TTZ
