[@ianwoods1384]

Hello Mak. Thankyou for your wonderful videos and your helpful tips along the way. Your interest and passion for fly tying and fishing is infectious. I initially learned the very basics stood over someone's shoulder and then afterwards learned as I went. Thankyou for sharing your vast knowledge, where many more ideas arise.

Beautiful nymph Mak. Smashing pattern and a good tip regarding spinning the peacock herl on to the thread. Will try that myself next time. Also intend to add a little flashback to a few of my nymphs, have not tried that myself as of yet.

Beautiful looking fly Mak. I love the colors. I'm shopping for a Hen Cape from Lakeland that is about the same color of your Pheasant tail you used in this video. Can you please tell me what color would come close to that. Grizzly with Red or Claret or maybe some other color. Thankyou. Aloha🌴🎣🐟

[@Makflies]

Thank you Kent, I am glad you like it, As for the colours, I have a Golden Olive & Ginger & Claret, I really like these colours, also Olive is great, :))

[@kentw.897]

Today I ordered from Lakeland 1-Hen Cape in Claret, 1-Golden Olive and 1- Medium Ginger in 4B. I’m excited to work with each one. Thankyou Mak for your expert advise. Mahalo, & Aloha🌴🎣🤙🏼

Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful flies Mak keep them coming and I've watched all your videos 100 times over lol lots of love from Canada. Just finished a hand full of pumpkin heads for some still water would be great to see if you have any neat ideas or colors for those still waiting for winter to go away Cheers!

[@Makflies]

Thank you Jay,, I really appreciate that you enjoy watching my videos, As for Pumpkinheads , Is this what you call any fly with an Orange Head ???. If so I can tie lots of Varations, I love Canada , where abouts are you? Regards Mak

[@Jay-xv1jd]

Mak I live in Alberta near Calgary waiting for jackfrost to leave. Ya the pumpkin head is just a very simple woolly bugger or a damsel nymph very effective in still water just asking if you have a variation of the pattern or something that you have played with no biggy. Keep up the great work! And allways look forward for your video's.

[@Makflies]

Thank you Jay,, I might have little play see what I come with Regards Mak

[@danielhartley8274]

Well tied. Curious as to why add the plastic when you apply the liquid that is also UV?

[@Makflies]

Thank you Daniel, just to give a little Flash :))
