Not sure why I got recommended this I don’t do any flyfishing but boy am I glad I watched it. Excellent content sir please keep it up

Great looking fly, I will try and tie it, thanks for the great video.

[@jamesduncan2977]

Reminds me of the first trout I caught as a teen on a similar colored fly on a lake in the Cascade mountains of Washington state, decades ago. Love the simplicity of this type of fly.

"Its not a fancy fly. Its a fishing fly." That describes all my flies.

[@marks.5288]

This pattern catches fish for sure, looks like our Sulphur here in the U.S.A. Thanks for the great tie.

Another wicked Trout slayer! A few will find there way in my box. Thank you again for all your helpful videos 👍

I've been using Yellow May parachute patterns for donkeys years, because contrary to many fishing books the trout where I fish love eating the Yellow May duns, and I've found that fished in the surface film they are far more effective than standard patterns. Having looked at a lot of the natural insect I like a tiny bit of fluro red seals fur mixed in with the thorax fur, a bit like that mixed for a Tups Indespensible. I look forward to trying your pattern Davie, thank you.

Yellow has aways been a brilliant top of the water colour mate , it's one of the first colours the trout see in their eyeline..👍

[@donaloflynn3922]

Will work on our rivers even on larger hooks. Thanks Davie

늘 당신의 컨텐츠를 보면서 감탄합니다^^ 플라이피싱에 입문한지 이제 3년차입니디만, 물가에 가본적은 2~30번 정도입니다. 막상 설레임을 가지고 물가로 갑니다만, 아직도 어떻게 해야하는지 늘~ 막막하네요. 그래도 포기하지 않고 열심히 배우렵니다^^ from KOREA~

Great little dry fly! Thank you for sharing!!

[@mikehulsey4813]

Beautiful pattern, although I disagree with the statement that it is a simple fishing fly, as everything you tie is a thing of beauty!

[@AllanMHutton]

Excellent flee and demo!!! 👍

[@bentpolski]

Another Beauty Davie!

[@davidfraser4083]

Superb fly Davie, I've fished the yellow Sally on the upper Clyde for years. Stay well. Big Davie

[@crs1321]

What was the orange thorax material? Another braw wee beastie Davie. Thanks for the tips. 👍👏🎣

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Clark, It is a SLF Finesse dubbing, it came in a small cube with many other colours which I bought many years ago and the label with the colour was lost so I can't tell you the exact colour though a sulphur coloured dubbing will suit this fly...If I do come across the label I will get back to you..I'm glad you liked the fly.. All the very best Davie

[@davidlivie2920]

Would you put floatant on this Davie or would the CDC and parachute hackle be buoyant enough without it ? I think this is a great looking fly.

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi David, I would as it will help it float far longer, I will at times coat them at home before I go fishing as it will allow it to dry completely..It is a good pattern and certainly works for me.. All the very best Davie

[@patrykniedzwiedz8448]

Love learning from your videos, as a beginner it's very educational and entertaining! What bobbin are you using?

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Patryk Niedzwiedz, The main bobbin that I use is the Tiemco Heavy duty Ceramic which is the one I have used since 1990 though I would say there's many good bobbin holders out there, it's just that I have got used to this one so I have no need to change it..I'm glad you enjoy the videos and thank you for the kind words.. All the very best Davie..
