How to tie George Daniel's Jiggy Fry: A great Euro Streamer 

If you tie it I'll try it! Everyone of your flies that we have tried are awesome! Thanks for taking the time and sharing with us

Thank you Cory for explaining this great pattern to a perfection as you always do! Your the best out there period!!!

Hi Cory - another great fly! Thanks for sharing! Tight lines!!!

I have always used a stopper knot when I build tag rigs. But I have always used multiple stopper knots for the different depths. Using a SINGLE stopper knot is GENIUS as the ones above the lowest one is not necessary and the line is "cleaner". . Cory, a big thanks for sharing your tips. By the way, iInstead of tying 2 tippets together and cutting off the tags, I just use a figure 8 knot using the main line. What do you think? I also use a Double Davy knot to attach the tag because t takes seconds to tie on. It is also smaller, gathers less moss, and creates less drag than a perfection loop. I also use a Double Davy for attaching the fly because the 16/20 knot requires too much length to tie. A double davy requires as little as 3" , and never fails except when I am fishing for 27"+ monsters and 3X tippet.

You just keep improving my tying Cory with every vid you post. Tight lines sir.

Great looking pattern Cory. Thanks for the materials lesson. Going to twist some up!

Thanks, Cory! I am learning so much from you. I've eased back into fly tying by starting with streamers, mostly learned by watching Kelly Galloup's videos. He of course leans large, so this example of a small fry is timely. Time to head up to the Smith River and fry it out!

Very nice. I have all the materials for this and will tie some up.

Another great tying video. Thank you for sharing Cory!

Solid work!

Thank you Cory.

Another killer video Corey! Do you tie this in any other colors?

Appreciate your time.

Cory, nice tie. Still not sure I want to get into tying. I’m still buying!😂 Tony

Very nicely done. I love the fact that you take so much care tying all your flies. Normally I fish nymphs, but as of last year, I also started to fish streamers. I will tie this fly for the upcoming season. Do you tie Sparkle Minnows? If yes, I'd love to see you tie that fly. I tied a version I found on RU-vid and made a mess. Still vacuuming the house from bits of gold ICE Dub... ;-) Thanks for this post.

Terrific thank you! Question what magnification glasses do you use?

Cory is that the only color you tie them in? And George uses a copper on his body you like the gold better or never tried with the copper?

bravo

Ha! I just wanted to tie a few of these up! Uncanny timing

ODT...just found your site and subscribed. My expertise for the last 50 years has been crappie, smallmouth and largemouth. I live in north Alabama but recently took a trip to Tellico Plains in Tennessee and I must say trout have addicted me. I know how to work a fly rod but my question to you is what is a good mid grade set up for someone who is not real experienced. I toe all my own baits and the fly's I used on the Tellico river were basically waltz worms and a modified frenchie. Both of the fly Inused were size 14 and 16 and yes before anybody asks....they were barbless. Can you recommend a food rod in the 10 foot length that would be good for nymphing and throwing fly like a elk hair caddis? I am new to this so excuse my ignorance. In 4 days we caught really nice rainbows and browns up to 3 pounds. We did catch a lot of smaller fish but the fact I am not a fly fisherman I thought I did well especially using a fly rod. I have fly fished for tarpon and bonefish so I know the mechanics of a fly rod and even know how to roll cast. Can you provide some help on rod and real selection. I really don't want to spend 1000's of dollars.

Cory, I live in the PNW where we don’t have brown trout. How would you suggest modifying this recipe to look more like a rainbow or sculpin fry?

Agree with comment below wrt copper bc I have a copper bugger. Also how about a Mickey Finn? I have one from my Dad. It’s 70 plus years old! I had a white/black marabou wet fly I had from him that I used until the hook broke.

Cory what bobbin are you tying with here?

Hello great tutorial your tying technics has as usual top notch for sure, I watch a kelly Galloway video the other day and I see he is heading out to your country for fly tying expos . How great if you guys could make it to the same expo. Tight line
