[@shawndobson5713]

I really enjoy watching you tie and always love the tips. Thanks for putting so much effort into sharing!

[@ShortyOnTheFly]

Nice tip on squaring up the mallard tips. Wood Duck and Mallard can be a real pain in the ass at times.

Great fly. I like using them as a dropper off of a dry fly.

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Very nice fly!

[@davidnix5211]

Awesome!

[@robertclay5447]

Another excellent tutorial -- thanks Charlie. What [color] dubbing would you use if you were tying a wine colored version?

[@justinw2729]

New to tying. How do you manage to keep your thread flat or uncorded? Are you twisting your bobbin after you wrap or is there a special technique or bobbin that can help with that?

[@CharliesFlyBox]

I tie left handed so as I wrap, I unwind the factory twist in the thread. Right handlers will need to spin their bobbin to control the twist.

[@justinw2729]

Awesome thanks for the reply!

Nice tie Charlie. -Joey Busse

[@jamesvatter5729]

Another simple, but deadly pattern!

[@samdyer1921]

Just curious but why are you wrapping your thread toward yourself instead of away from you?

[@bscjake]

old but Charlie ties Left handed so it only looks backwards
