It's a simple pupa, but when a good tyer ties it with the right material, it has a wonderful sense of life. Cream

[@robertperman8967]

Yeah. Mine never look like that🤣🤣! Tight lines🐞🐛🐜🦟!!!!

[@philwistrom9200]

I've been tying for over 20 years and you have quickly become my go to tier to watch for tips and new patterns. Keep up the great work!

[@randellgribben9772]

i tied about 2 dozen of these in a couple sizes.. worked well this season on the little and main truckee river...nice tie

[@Patrack1er]

Whaouw Davie, marvellous tying. Congratulations. I'll make it !

[@scotsmaninthephilippines1659]

Davie, this must be a fly that catches! Really nice tying and superb tuition, as always, thank you and keep those videos coming

[@dannymcg8300]

Very nice work Davie. Well tied and explained. Many thanks.

[@handcannon1388]

Now it looks like I have to find my bead cord. I picked some up at a craft store while killing time waiting for my young daughter to shop. They even had some with fine sparkles in it. Since some of them are translucent, you could get some really nice effects. I was thinking of translucent chartreuse over fluorescent red for a "tomato core" colored body. I never did get around to tying them; now it looks as though I'll have to. Thanks for another great video.

[@jamesdean6259]

just started tying,thank you for sharing your talent i have learned a lot by watching your channel.

[@jackreeves3001]

As always beautiful miniature sculpture!

[@aurelienlinnenkamp9885]

Your flys are so good. To the first at the last.👌

[@nativewildman9335]

Good video! I like to use hemp cord for fly. I do use the clear cord too it makes nice flys with make colors it shows good though it. I have learned a lot from your videos. My family and friends say that I'm getting very good at tieing. Thank you very much for sharing and explaining your know well! 🤠

[@robertperman8967]

Beautiful 🐛 🐞 bug! Tight lines🦗🪰🪲!!!!

[@brockwilson3446]

I tie a similar pattern using utc midge rib. Will definitely be adding your touches to my tys. Have a couple 100 fulling mills hooks on the way.

[@kentw.897]

This one has many Beautiful Colors. I like it very much. Thankyou Davie. Aloha🌴🦐🎣🐟

[@kentw.897]

Hi Davie. Can you please tell me which UV resin and UV light you use most often. And if its Bug Bond can you please tell me exactly which one it is. I see there's a couple different ones available. Thankyou.🌴🏄‍♂️🎣

[@camiwells1]

I'll test it, here in Chile just started the season. Is spring here!!!!

[@ipod1978]

Smashing pattern. Very nice fly pal

[@mazman8343]

Thanks very much. Love to see your may fly nymph with this

[@finchhaden7016]

Well done! I'll be using it on the Delaware next Spring. Thanks.

[@sirmegallot3276]

Finch Haden looks like the fishing on west branch will be pushed back quite a bit this year, it's a shame although my friend and I have several three days trips throughout may June and July planned with our new drift boat, we are excited to say the least good luck there!

Ну вот, и Дейв добрался до бисерных резинок молодец!

Hey Davie, I have been using the magic cord we can get here in the U.S. Nice colors that company makes. I will look for more colors. Thanks. Sean

[@OldBear5255]

Great looking caddis fly mate. Was that on a size 16 scud hook? Can you use other colours. Thanks for another great tying video. Best Regards Ken

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Ken, I tyed it on a Fulling Mill Czech nymph hook size 16 which is a very good scud like hook but use what you like to tye your flies on..I have attached a link to a photo of some more patterns of the fly in different colours, it's on Instagram which I hope you can see...

[@stephenprice9120]

Great video Davie, thanks a lot! Can I ask what scissors you're using there? Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Stephen, I was using the 4 inch Loon Razor scissors in the video, thank you for the kind words and I'm glad that you are enjoying the videos...loonoutdoors.com/product/razor-scissors-4in/ All the very best Davie

[@stephenprice9120]

Cheers Davie, They look like the business! Steve

[@outlawcustombows]

Hi Davie, Love the videos! Have made learning to tie flies so much easier and I definitely think a few of your patterns will work here in Australia. Is There any chance you could do a pattern for a deer hair cicada? Chasing Aussie natives like Bass the cicada is key lure but there aren't many good patterns for them. All the best and look forward to more videos. Colin

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Colin, A friend sent me a photo of a real Cicada fly for me to try and copy which I did using Deer Hair but someone said it was their pattern so I deleted it as I have no time to argue over a fly so I'm sorry to say it's one of those patterns I keep away from..I'm glad you enjoy the videos and thank you very much for your kind words... All the very best Davie

[@outlawcustombows]

Davie McPhail I understand. Bit silly to be offended by someone making a fly similar to there's since we're all copying the same bugs but anyway... If you were to make up your own version, what materials would you be likely to use for the wings and body?

[@Machster10]

Took 3 months to get the elastic stretch cord delivered from Gina.

[@Nikbaldin71]

Очень отличная приманка👍🏻

[@graemebrown1191]

Nice Dsvie✌

[@sirmegallot3276]

I'm assuming the material not listed is some kind of green microtubing?

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi Sir Megallot, I'm sorry I didn't realise I had missed out the body materials and I'm surprised you are the first to notice..I used 0.8mm Stretch Beading Cord, you can buy it in a few colours though I would say I use the clear more than any as you can colour it or simply wind it over your thread, dubbing or even tinsel to get the colour you are looking for...

[@sirmegallot3276]

Thanks for taking the time to respond, Davie. That looks like a good, cheap fly tubing alternative. All the best, Scott.

Hi davie would you use 0.8 on grey boy buzzers olives etc. Or smaller

[@DavieMcPhail]

Hi max man, I have used the 0.8mm on buzzer and mayfly nymphs size 10s, 12s and 14s at a push but if I was going smaller I would use the 0.4mm... All the very best Davie..
