Tying The G Mouse with Kelly Galloup

[@michaellennemann7850]

Really enjoyed the mouse swimming demonstration 🤣

[@shawndobson5713]

Great video again! Thanks for taking the time!

[@teammega68]

Great type, thank you very much. I've now tied a few of these for my son who lives in Alberta for catching Northen Pike. They love hitting on anything they can swallow!

[@davidtaylor2455]

Helpful video. Your philosophy and reasons for why you tie are incredibly resourceful!

[@tylerpearce2891]

I will have to tie this up for some pike and bass fishing for next spring

[@melstallard5862]

It’s a little funny that I was looking back over your videos to get an answer as to whether to spin deer hair on a clean hook versus a dressed hook and you touched on it here. I’m still not completely clear as to which way to go but I’m sure I’ll figure it out. Thanks again for your time and generosity.

[@TheSlideinn]

Mel, You can spin on either, just a little easier on a clean hook when you first start but once you get the hang of it you can go over about anything. thanks for watching. KG

[@chompchomp61]

Have you ever tried spinning sheet foam? It's popular in South Africa. Cut sheet foam into thin strips then spin it like deer hair. Guys here make a top water dungeon for large mouth yellow fish. They also use it for other surface flies like a prawn fly for grunter.

Great theory of your functional mouse fly and very instructional to watch your technique. Thanks for the vid!

[@markjacobson8461]

Great video thanks Kelly. Just ordered your book to get sent to me down in Australia. Insightful as always mate.

Awesome tie. I think when I tie this up I’m gonna try using cross cut rabbit strip and just palmer that on as is. I think maybe if the fur is still attached to the hide it would absorb a lot more water and maybe sink that back end more.

[@TheSlideinn]

Brian, Cross cuts work great, definitely adds weight but works great, thanks for watching. KG

My mouse box is a complete mish mash of different "experimental" flies. Variations of moorish mouse, master splinter, etc., etc., etc. Stingers, articulated, hook up, hook down.... Frankenstein flies of all shapes and size. My go to lately was a gurgler style, with palmered rabbit, a section of that zonker left back for a tail, pull the foam over the palmer, boom done.

[@chrisashby4497]

Awesome looking mouse. I will have to give this one a try

[@joshhigdon4951]

I can't wait to watch this one!

[@christianrihm8863]

Best mouse fly ❤

[@ProbablySkunked]

Hoooooly fuck, I am so glad these videos are back

[@crickhowellparagliding]

Very cool, what sort of gear are you chucking these with Kelly? Line and rod?

[@TheSlideinn]

Alistair. 6 and 7 weights 9 footers. Thanks, KG

[@stephangray2436]

Cool take on a mouse pattern

[@leemowers9395]

Great fly, time to get the idea generator going.

[@stephanzigler9439]

Famous words lmao! "They're fat-asses!" 🤣

[@ethansumrall]

what an incredible idea to not be a commercially sold fly.

[@__magnus__3162]

Time to weight all my parachute adams because KG told me to

[@markjacobson8461]

Classic

[@academicmailbox7798]

The thing I would ask about this.

[@academicmailbox7798]

Is for many years. The anglers doing night fishing. Had tried to 'mouse' out. On the river bank. And yeah. Getting out of a river. At night time. Is a vastly different experience. Than the one of doing it. In broad day light.

[@academicmailbox7798]

The thing that strikes me though. Is that perhaps the anglers. Were weighing the wrong thing? Maybe the anglers were not trying to 'mouse' out at all.

[@academicmailbox7798]

I think they were trying to 'frog' out.

[@academicmailbox7798]

That strikes me as the reason why. The rubber legs were there. The saddle cape hackles. The marabou feathers and, or the rabbit strips.

[@academicmailbox7798]

Kelly was talking about how the mouse. Swimming in the water. When it creates an acoustic pattern in the water. When in fact. What he is discribing. Is how a frog swims in the water. Or a lizard creature.

Чересчур много пустого трёпа!
