How to tie the Glass minnow - Streamer for salt and fresh water 

Um... Ok thanks? LOL Im actually not too great at it, just FYI. I want to learn how to do it by hand, but always had trouble...

Lol. Check out my “split tail shad” I recently tied. Might be exactly what your looking gor

+Mc. Fly Lures Would you be able to tie the Seatrout Special? It is supposed to be by Tom Lentz. You can find a copy of the recipe at www.flytyer.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=118&Itemid=83. The Seatrout Special is supposed to be a bright attractor pattern. Thank you! If you could let me know when you do it, that would be great.

+Charles W looks to be close to the seaducer fly I tied. Check out that video for a quick reference. It's basically that fly with a few small differences and colors. I will look into getting the colors needed for that fly, give me some time on that. I'll let ya know when I finish it and upload the video. Thanks!

Mc. Fly Lures can you make a crawfish fly with zonker?

McFly Angler you should use your beard to make a fly lol

Sure! Give it a try

McFly Angler I might do that today

Send me some pics man!

Sorry flats, I haven't seen that video in forever, and its been almost a year since I uploaded it. Not sure exactly what I was talking about in it. Did I mention possibly trimming it or not? I mean, its best to pull out some of the fibers to make them not "squared" before tying. If you take some real time and planning you can do the fly without any trimming. But it is synthetic, so you don't have to worry about the tapered ends like you would with buck tail. So you can trim to whatever shape you want after.. I hope I answered the question correctly for you. Again, I haven't seen the video in a while, and youtube doesn't want me watching my own video's too often due to the ads on there.

No worries, I dont believe you mentioned trimming, you did taper the ends a bit by plucking some, which I guess is what you were going for. Sorry for the confusion, tight lines

Hey no problem flats, no need to apologize. You are totally fine. Yeah, I always just pluck the ends to taper the materials before tying in with this fly, but you could totally trim it once all the pieces are in. Check out my "reversed tied craft fur" fly. Its another way of tying this way, that you might want to try for this fly as well. It seems to be quicker in my opinion. I stumbled on tying it this way somehow, and it is my preferred method now.

Lol, this was like the 2nd video I ever made. I’ve improved since and have done many flies similar. Just search though my videos.

Yeah, sure! You can use just flashabou also. There are lots of things you could use here. Even dubbing.

Well I find it necessary to keep the eye on and make the fly more durable, but there is this gel form of superglue you could use to attach the eye... I just find it not as durable.

+Logan Sites no it's closer to Congo hair..

It was a 1/0 hook. Rather large yes, but I'm using it to fish bass, so I like it large.

ok thank you

Im not really interested in tying up 100's of flies for sale/trade. But personal message me anyway, lets discuss...
