It's always amazing to watch how you accomplish your goals when tying a fly and you certainly made this classic pattern look beautiful. Thanks Barry

Very Nicely Done Barry! She's Beautiful, I wish I could make one like that. The turkey quills really make this pattern come alive and matches all of the other materials. Thanks for sharing each step by step. Aloha🌴🐝🎣🐟

Beautiful flies sir. Friend o mine n i gravel bar Oregon. Late February early march brown hatch. Buddy ties magazine quality flies, alot like these. I as well tie flies. Found trout looking for dries n had a spectacular day. At days end Buddy asked what i was throwing. I showed him my parachute tied march brown that the ginger hackle from the post had absolutely been untied yet still secured. Fly was destroyed yet outfished my bud. Beautiful flies sir, but totally unnecessary. Lighten up, i promise your line will still tighten up.... 😊 tight lines Sir.

Great fly Barry. Caught two grilse on this fly in Shetland this year. Just shows how versatile a fly it is!

@michaellewis7758 3 года назад

So for trout flies do you prefer pinch-loop rather than valley-method for wings? (i.e. loose wrap of bobbin over wing and then lift butts up and down and let the bobbin draw the wing onto the hook?)

@Thefeatherbender 3 года назад

Hi Michael, Pinch loop and draw the bobbin upwards.

@bobthebuilder2922 3 года назад

Hey thank you for the video! Weird question. At 8:48 did you only put one wing? Or 2?

@Thefeatherbender 3 года назад

Thanks Bob, No always both wings at once. If you try and put one at a time they won't sit neatly together, its impossible.

Howzit going Barry. Can you please tell me where's a good place to get some Mustad S60- 3399A sz.10 Hooks. They're hard to find and the dealer charges to much for shipping. I love watching all of your videos, Thankyou for sharing them with us. Aloha🌴🎣🤙🏼

@Thefeatherbender 3 года назад

Hi Kent, thanks. Unfortunately the Mustad range have become more & more difficult to get hold of over the past few years, but you can use these: Partridge G3A/L & G3A. These are standard Mustad hooks sold under another name. The G3A/L is the Mustad S70-3399 and the G3A is the Mustad S60 3399A. Hope this helps.

@kentw.897 3 года назад

@@Thefeatherbender Thankyou Barry for getting back to me. I appreciate that very much! I did check out the Partridge G3A and it looks like the same hook, but I'm not going to spend 28$ for a box of 100. to see if I like them first, and I want to see if they rust right away like the Daiichi's. Can't handle that. From what I seen before Mustad seems to do pretty well in salt water conditions. And if the hook catches a lot of fish and they don't get away then I'll order 50$ worth from Mustad (3.99 box 25) and qualify for free shipping. That's equivalent to 325 hooks. Thankyou Barry, I will always go back to your fly tying videos, I really enjoy watching them. You Take Care, Aloha🌴🎣🦃

@@Thefeatherbender what has happened to mustad, Barry ? Here in Italy they are extremely hard to find. Btw got your book as a birthday present, just awesome, indeed you make me a better tier every day, not to mention my improvement of the English language

@brianlane9534 3 года назад

This was tied on a size 8. Is that typical for this fly? Does it have to be turkey? Thanks for video. Now I'm gonna have to get some turkey feathers. This is very high on my list of flies to learn. Still learning everything...

@Thefeatherbender 3 года назад

Hi Brian, thanks. You can tie it in just about any size you wish really! For smaller sizes you can also use hen pheasant primary wing quills.

@brianlane9534 3 года назад

@@Thefeatherbender Welp, I tied, er, attempted to tie a dozen. Size 12. Used turkey I didn't know I had. I just unpacked and stowed the materials I have. I was having a heck of a time finding hackle small enough from the PA ruffed grouse and woodcock I received. And hen feathers? No chance. The turkey was ragged and soft. I got one or two that look pretty good, a few not bad but with wings too long. And a few more with the wings too long. But they'll all fish. The turkey feather seemed very fragile and dry. But I have no reference. I was able to marry up the barbs for the most part. The tips were soft and a bit ragged. But I'm proud to say that I got matched wing pairs centered on top of the hook for each one, ragged as they may be, on my first ever attempt. Thanks for the videos.

@patrickbrennan20 7 лет назад

Barry is there a difference between the English partridge you are using and Hungarian partridge ? Great video. Thanks.Pat B.

@Thefeatherbender 7 лет назад

Hi Patrick, Hungarian and English are much the same the English can be more grey and the Hungarian more towards brown but for the most just alike.

Hi Kenneth, I may have done, It's not easy for me keeping my eye on the tying, filming, sound and what I say sometimes goes off on one. Sorry.

@reserrvoirman 6 дней назад

Certain charm and class those old wet flies have. Not many people tie those wings anymore. Their fish getter tho. Don’t leave hone without them. Beautifully tied Barry.

@joeduca8582 7 лет назад

👍 Beautiful tie Barry, lots of great tips included also, the thread towards the bend, tightening the hackle, the wing placement and finishing the head, awesome. I watched your Shetland islands post, WOW! Beautiful trout and scenery. Then your "when the foil speaks". I've read that in Fly Tyer, amazing pattern with those foils and the pheasant loops. BTW, after your Nalle Puh post I searched for my Betters pattern book and found another gem, your International Guide To Fly Tying Materials you did with Robert Spaight. I had no memory of even buying it or reading it! Great book. I had it in a brief case along with Betters book and other reference material from the 80's and 90's that I took on fishing trips and kept at hand when I tied back then. 20 years later it still is, if not more, a valuable reference, thanks for that too! You truly are a "feather bender" of excellence!

@dazzyd1964 7 лет назад

I'd like to see you tie it with the wing first followed by the hackle as would have been done c1800 - any chance?

@cachi-7878 Год назад

Beautiful fly. So refreshing to see a fly tied with natural materials. I think we are overusing synthetics these days. One reason I was attracted to fly tying was that patterns were tied almost exclusively with natural feathers, hair and fur. I will always choose natural over synthetic when possible.

@Thefeatherbender Год назад

Thanks, although synthetics have a significant place in fly tying, I do prefer using natural...
