I love this pattern you didn’t make it to realistic but made the general idea of a Baetis nymph

[@hankvana2149]

Nice tie - beautiful photography as usual! Cheers!

[@boblew4]

I used this pattern in the Driftless as a dropper last week and worked GREAT!! Thank you for an effective and simple pattern.

[@davehall2160]

Great looking fly, Thanks for sharing

[@gibbyutah]

Great tie and great video. Thanks

[@Anjumara-yk2zj]

Glad to see you make a video on the Bart is! Great vid as usual, and some neat ideas

[@elduderoony8171]

Nice pattern. Thanks for another one dude.

After using this one for 3 seasons on the Grand River, Ontario, I can say that, yes, this one works, and very well, I might add. I've caught fish on this when nothing else works. It's now my go to nymph. Since it's still 3 months until the season opens, I wonder if I'll be able to tie enough of these before the season opens here!

Great pattern, works well on the Roaring Fork, CO during BWO hatches.

Works likes a champ in NC wild streams. Used it today after no action on dries. New Zealand indicator and this pattern brought bookies and browns to the net.

Hope to see You on The South Branch!

I’m here to add that these flies definitely work. I found some dubbing that has small 1/8th to 1/4 inch rubber legs in the dubbing and it is killer on this pattern

[@yoursweatersux]

Can confirm that these work like a charm from my experience (also in NJ)

[@jamesward1801]

Nice use of the word 'svelte'!

[@augustgresens3528]

A great video as always. I had a thought about this and other fly tying videos. The fly is only half the equation. To catch fish we must also present it properly. Could you possibly elaborate on some techniques for how to present this fly to the fish under different conditions? (or point us to some videos that would give us some tips as to how)? Thank You

I love this pattern on my local streams in Western New York, I tie them on a size 16 jig hook as well, and I recently I have been using synthetic quill bodies with the same great results

[@josephh957]

Same here, I’ve started doing goose biot bodies in various colors, can be a tad finicky but man does it look good as a finished product!

[@tetonflytying8899]

Do you have an invertebrate tank? How do you get those cool shots of bugs? If you do have a tank you should make a vid about how to do that.

[@FarmyJoe76]

How’d the new pattern perform?

[@JokiBroki]

Hello. Love your videos by the way have been following u for long time. Did you hear that Dai Riki is no more? Went to tightlines fly shop in parsipanny and they said they didnt hear back from them in months. Thats my favorite hook.

[@patches152]

Do you sell your flies? i'd love to catch a fish with a fly "as featured on that one KZbin channel once", the fish won't believe it!

[@haygwynn]

So how does it work? Anything you'd change?

[@bentpolski]

That will work!

[@vincenttrzeciak878]

Lot of water there on the sbranch. Lot of water. Gonna be a great spring.

[@militarist7777]

Крутая мухенция получилась.

[@newrivernymphs3213]

You should do a stream sampling video would love to see it

[@tightlinevideo]

Stay tuned, one is in the works.

[@paulorodriguez5564]

Shoerders parachute hoppers please????????

[@deanransom2350]

Looks like you gave up on the BONDIC resin.
