Hi Jan Muisers giving this a try. How long do you soak the gut in water?

How long do you soak the gut in water? Very helpful video series--thanks so much.

Thanks for the tip. I use dry fly hackle but if I do start using ostrich this will be helpful👍

This was very helpful! Think you very much sir.

Terrific video. A great tutorial on the "do's & don'ts" of marrying wings. Many thanks.

I was on that understanding that “the unwritten law” to a classic salmon fly, it`s Best to use a standard thread, and not a GSP thread ? But correct me if im wrong.. I do use gsp tread mostly, due to the thin making and the minimal risk of breaking the thread when tying... The reason... natural materials do sit better with a normal thread you wax yourselves..?

Thank you for the web site information. It's just what I have been looking for. I want to learn how to tye the classic salmon flies

Good tutorials, but sorry your underbody is all wrong - it should be a weight forward cigar shape - not thinner at the head than the butt (you don't have to take my word for it - just read Kelson Hale etc) Uni is actually a really bad floss choice as most of it is multi-strand and twisted, secondly it's much better tie the hackle tip in with the floss itself on the return towards the head - hold it with a weighted bobbin holder and then slide the hackle tip under it before completing the body - this prevents the lumpy ti-ein area you have here. Dx

Ecellent, thanks

Jan can you tell me what type of thread you are using in this video?Thank you..Jim

whats up with the gloves

Great videos Jan. I learned more from your tips than reading a few books on classic salmon flies

Thanks for showing Exactly how to tie the wing on. I have made several married wings successfully, but the tying on of the wing always left me frustrated. I will, of course continue to try. Thanks for sharing. All the best to you, Sean

What kind of thread do you use?

(Mounting the wing, in particular.)

First video of its kind that I have seen. Thanks very much.

Fantastic Idea, I have not given salmon flies a try yet. I tie fishing flies but these come out so beautiful I would just want to collect them. Such beauty I need to see the fish will take something very much less beautiful. All the best to you, Sean
