Welcome back to Tying Tuesday! In this week’s episode, we have special guest tyer Travis Hanson back in the studio to tie up something special! Today he is crafting his version of the Rusty Duck, and his version is a little more on the buggy side of the original. This sexy chironomid is on FIRE! It has a beautiful color transition that tapers softly as you move up towards the head of the fly. This color change gives the chironomid a very natural looking silhouette and a realistic profile. Hanson takes this Rusty Duck to a whole new level, by adding a sparse dirty dubbing collar that adds a lot bugginess to the head, and creates a little drag in the water column. This drag slows the bug down, it gives it some more action and life in the water. Tie some of these up, and let us know how they work for you! We would love to see your images over on Instagram, and get your feedback and comments on what flies you would like to see next!
Let's grow this channel and community together!!!
