Excellent simple ty but the best thing is you provided a very detailed method of how to fish them as most tyers online simply don't so any one who is just starting out will ty a Diawl Bach but have no idea how to use them to their full advantage so well done your the first I have watched and I have watched hundreds

Thanks for watching and subscribing . Im glad you are finding the vids useful . Yes I noticed the same trend with tiers , talking more about variations in materials etc than the actual purpose of the fly and what it is trying to achieve . Thanks for the feedback and any future suggestions for tying vids just drop a comment . Will be getting back to recording pretty soon all being well .

Nice video. As a new tier, I was happy to see that you can use Goose Biots as an alternative to create eyes as opposed to using up all the eyes I have from my jungle cock cape

I have always found them just as effective , and a fraction of the cost ! Thanks for watching

Never heard of it mate. Do you have a pic?

@@timjoyceflyfishing-essex6769 unfortunately no , I've tried online as well , I seem to recall it being made totally of peacock herl with a fairly slim body and a tail of about 3 strands of herl , total length probably 3" making it a bit leach like I suppose , we used to fish it singly , sometimes with a split shot up front, boy did it ever work well takes were really savage , not seen it for yrs but thinking of things during this rough time were are having , it came to mind , lol ,

@@KEITHPARRIS2949 Sounds very similar to the Ivans green and brown .. a terrific nymph pattern very popular in the 80,s and 90,s
