You’ve got talent, not just knowledge in fishing but being able to present information is amazing.

[@tomt5176]

Hey Tim. Again, we’re bowing to a master! Great looking pattern and advice to fish it properly. Quality every time. Thanks Tim.

[@scottnock5241]

Tim awesome pattern very realistic!!! Also I have to thank you,I have learned SO much from watching your videos!!!

[@HienNguyen-lk8rm]

Made this fly two days ago and tried it on the upper Sac river! Water was frigid cold! The trout loved it! Thank you Tim!!!

[@50Squirrel]

As always, another great fly & a very well done instructional video!

[@jhjhjh242]

Beautiful looking fly, great video, many thanks. Tight lines from England 🦈🦈

[@jamesvatter5729]

Great looking pupa, Tim.

[@mikekelly6632]

Thanks Tim. Great pattern as usual. Looks like an excellent Caddis pupa and could be done in a few colors. It sort of reminds me of a jazzed up Teeny Nymph.

[@edwardmlotkiewicz2343]

Great video, great pattern. Thanks.

[@ShortyOnTheFly]

OK. That Hackling technique is something I had not seen. I will be stealing that.

[@sirmegallot3276]

Great pattern! I also really like the proportions of that hook. I have Fulling Mill's Czech style barbless hooks but I'm convinced there is not enough of an angle to the bend of the hook and fish slip off too easily. Thanks!

[@silvertip8k278]

I don't know if ive missed recent videos...but this camera is incredible...as usual. .great video,great pattern

[@bentpolski]

Well done Tim!

[@zarchy55]

I had trouble with the hackle step, but I found that I got much better results if I reversed the order of the last two steps. That is, I tied and wound the hackle first, then pulled the wing case over and tied that down.

[@Fernando_Woolybooger]

me too

[@gennadykolotkov1279]

Looks amazing and thanks for the clarification !

[@dankochanek8056]

This is the best looking one I've seen in a long time. Does it have a dry fly brother? Thanks for sharing!!!

[@bobhammond8067]

That is another dandy!!

[@harleymandk]

also works with a carp hook ! I'm using a Prologic XC7 size 10.

[@charlieboutin3341]

Thanks a lot! 👍👍👌

[@rumenstanev7747]

Thanks!

[@hirkojs]

Amazing video as always Tim !!! Could you please share a link where you get your plunger style hackle pliers from as all the ones I’ve ordered online are junk. Mega Thx again

[@SarahSwift-mb4pl]

Does this fly work in late summer months in Kamloops region?

[@jimholland1592]

Hey Tim, what is the term you use for the debris that flows past the fish in the water🤔

[@FlyTyer1948]

Help. This is a great looking caddis that I want to tie right away. However, although although your Sow Scud dubbing is shown as amber on the package, it looks like rusty orange on my screen. I don’t know if it’s my eyes or the color register on my screen. Do you see the dubbing as true amber or does it have an almost orange appearance to you. I will get the matching Sow Scud but I already have a skein of Antron yarn with orange & amber sections so I can start tying right immediately.

[@tightlinevideo]

By all means, go with the Antron yarn you have.

[@FlyTyer1948]

Thanks but which color - the video color looks orangey not amber. Go with orange?

[@FlyFishMike_]

​@@FlyTyer1948 Try not to worry too much about matching the exact colour, get it close, then fish away! I'm colour blind for mostly yellow/ochre colours. Will I ever match a perfect Yellow/Olive?... probably not. Go with what you see, go with your gut too and tie away!
