This is an interesting, more realistic pattern than the one I use. I'll have to give this a try. Also, I never thought about the push-pin needles. Those could be used in shrimp and crawdad patterns I've been wanting to try. Thanks for the demonstration.
Thanks for posting how to tie this fly. I saw your carp videos and was thinking, I wish I could figure out the pattern. Now I know and appreciate the detail in the video.
Thank you Frank, hope you get some nice fish on it! It’s worked fantastic over the years for me and it will absolutely work for you too. Thanks for watching!
8 weight but only for the size of the fish. You can easily cast it with a 5 weight no problem. If you look at some of my other videos, you see me fishing this pattern for carp with my fiberglass 8 weight.
@@mickeygrantflyfishingtying6246 thank you sir. One last question....what is the thickness of the foam? 1/8, 1/2. Not the size you cut it, but how thick it is from sticky side to non sticky
UPDATE: Here is a link to a new video that was filmed with better lighting! Much easier to see! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fFS8bPlubRE.htmlsi=51vc8-XW5jCU-AFP
