Brian Wise is the guy behind the camera here(and in front sometimes)...he has guided on the North Fork of the White River in Missouri for 2 decades and specializes in streamer fishing for large, predatory brown trout. #AvantLink
Wow Brian I was just looking through your short(videos not underwear lol) and I saw this one and I'm going to use this double hackle technique in tying up a nice Wooly Bugger varrient! If it comes out like I think it will Ill send you a picture! Tight lines sir!
Hey Brian! I've been looking for a way to contact you reguarding my account but this is the only way I found. Can you please contact me sir to make sure you get paid for my membership please? I believe you have access to my e-mail? Thank you sir!
Your videos are informative and instructional and I appreciate that. However, the "music" that is so prevalent in streamer tying videos makes me want to poke my eyeballs out and shove them in my ears.
Like all your posts. Why wet the materials before the dye? I dye fishhair the same way but have to leave the nylon dry so it deeply absorbs the color. Thanks Paul
New word: phenomenal Also, believe it or not, but some of us are new to fly tying and love your content. So don’t consider ice dub information old news….
Great tips! Two more: Take a lesson from a pro, no matter the price. Look hard into what flies guides tie, the guys fishing 100+ days a season; this can be a real eye opener.
Such good tips! Staying organized can help save you money too….cant tell you how many times I “re-bought” stuff I already had one or two of. The struggle is real 😂
Great tips!! Started tying 2 years ago and have tied and tied and tied…… now I have more flies than I’ll ever need. Best thing I’ve found in tying is how relaxing and enjoying it is. Just retired this summer so hopefully I will have even more time to tie. And fish them. Donne size 20 drys to 10 inch articulated musky flys.
Your videos new and old help me out I've been tying a little over 2 years it's been a journey and I'm glad I have you and people like you willing to help teach I'm never disappointed with my flys when I listen and fallow the tips provided through your videos
Less is better, never more. I've been tying since the late 70's, and only in the last 5 or 6 years, I started hearing this misused tip for new tyers. The term goes back further, but a German-American architect coined the phrase in the early 1900's to sell a design to a board reviewing his design. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe was a minimalist architect. It doesn't bother me. It's just silly. Less is better... doesn't that make more sense?
Thanks for sharing your tying tips. For deer hair bass flies, I use hard plastic discs with ahole in the center to help push the packed hair back using a hair packer then use my half-hitch tool to secure , whip finish and remove the plastic disc (remember those old bingo marker discs?). As for organizing, I use large flip down storage bins and put lime materials in each bin.
