Very interesting and a really good take on just making a natural fly and not exacting. Totally agree. I will enjoy watching more of your videos well done.
This has to be one of the greatest fly-channels out there. Good tip, parts of the neck that have small fibers can better be used as wing material for daddy long legs etc. It seems to me also that fish prefer abnormalities rather than true copies of incects. The trend novadays is to make a diecast model of a bug. Btw excuse my poor english. Greetings from norway :-)
THANK YOU! You just saved me a load of money & gave me piece of mind. I have 100’s pack of grizzly and thought I needed to run out & get smaller feathers because the hackle looked big. I just started tying btw. I will continue to learn with what I have and maybe change after I have tied and fished alot more flies
Hey buddy, I see the wolf wasn't at your door this winter. I'm the chaos king tying . my wife just looks and hisses. Hey they will hunt though. Look forward to seeing you guys in July. Save me a few of those gooduns. I'm going streamer this year finally. I'll need you guys to help me get set up . Adios
Patty, they have pretty limited use in the dry fly world due to barb count and the length of the hackle but when I do it is for spinners and a few parachute patterns, generally bigger flies. Kelly
+operationNOBO I suppose it could as long as you have purpose for the addition and it is done to create something. With streamers it is easy to get to random and stop the fly from swimming the way it should. For me with streamers the goal is less is more as long as it creates big silhouette. KG
