Tying with Hare's Ear Dubbing

[@Bonneville_Brute]

Most solid fly tying channel there is 👏

[@gregb8824]

Tight line is excellent. I also like the feather bender and Davie McFail. Anybody else have a favorite or two worth sharing?

[@gregb8824]

Flyfishfood is good for a laugh as well as a tie.

[@Bonneville_Brute]

@@gregb8824 I learned most of what I know from Fly Fish Food! I got my vice and a lot of my materials from their brick and mortar shop too.

Starting to watch fly fiend, he has some cool variations

[@coloradoflyguy5044]

I like Piscator flies a lot

Always great advice which is much appreciated down-under in NZ. Complements of the Season.

Another good tip. Thanks for another one Tim. A Merry Christmas to you and yours and a happy New Year.

[@charlesmcfarlane2082]

Awesome! Sure is a useful technique to get that buggy thorax without all the brushing out. Thanks!

[@coloradoflyguy5044]

Awesome video tim! I really enjoyed meeting you at the fly fishing show in denver. I was the kid who liked to tie euro nymphs! Again, thank you for giving me the pleasure of meeting you! Thanks, -Michael. P.S, could you do a video on either a ray Charles scud,or a backstabber carp fly?

[@tightlinevideo]

Great to meet you as well Michael. I've done a video on the Ray Charles- kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIqTfJ2CZ6iceK8 I have already put the Backstabber on the to do list. Tightlines! Tim

I first thought that tinsel was wire and was very shocked when you used scissors on them.

[@ryantherock7664]

Hi Tim why do you prefer using pheasant tail fibres for the tail as opposed to fibres off the mask for the tails?thank you

[@tightlinevideo]

Two reasons. First, I am an inherently lazy tier. If I can tie in one material rather than two, I'll do it. In this case, I'm using the same clump of pheasant tail for the wing case as I do for the tail. Second, I've never liked the look of guard hairs as a tail on a Hare's Ear Nymph. I know it is the traditional way of tying them but I think the pheasant tail fibers look far more natural.

[@gregb8824]

I use a ladies makeup powder brush. I have one that's black and one that's tan. The reason I prefer it is because it's VERY durable, especially compared with pheasant tail.

[@ryantherock7664]

@@tightlinevideo thanks for the detailed response

[@PiscatorFlies]

If only I could tie RGHE's that quick IRL! Tim, what thread do you like to use for your split loops?

[@Coastalfishes]

Can you tie a British Columbia Stillwater fly? Maybe a chironimid pattern or a micro leech?

[@gregb8824]

Check out Phil Rowley or Brian Chan.

What light do you use when tying?
