"the bushier the better", "a good looking head adds to the look of a major woody", "twitch it" man you're innuendo game is strong 😂

Fly fisherman's humor at its best, you guys in the comment section are too much. On a serious note, I love that I learn so much from every one of your videos. Detail is so important to you and your ability to walk us through each fly is unparalleled. You are simply the best I've seen. Thanks for helping so many of us enjoy fly tying and fishing so much more.

@stevengriffin1676 2 года назад

ThankYou! I never get tired of the wonderful and enthusiastic way you show your audience how your fly tying works out. Great to watch and easy to follow leaving me eager to try it out myself! ThankYou! also for sharing your knowledge and experience to help others ultimately catch fish!!! So cool!!!

@dgilchrist6361 6 лет назад

I'm not a tyer, but my 16 year old daughter is really getting into it. Your videos are the best!!!!!

@pjmacneil8406 10 месяцев назад

Great looking pattern and very clear tying instructions - thank you very much!

@icejunki 4 года назад

I tied a bunch of these over the winter and really couldn't wait to find them a little action. I was using a double nymph rig with a "Major Woody" and a scud pattern that is gray with an orange tip that always produces where I live. I was shocked at how many takes I got on this fly. And I really enjoy tying it too. Like so many of your videos, it's the minor details in your style that make it so enjoyable to learn. Thanks for taking the time to make this and all of your videos.

@hankvana2149 6 лет назад

Nice Tim! Very practical use of materials, I like simple and quick ties.

@bowhuntznj 6 лет назад

Tim this looks like a great all-purpose pattern looking forward to giving it a try! Thanks!

@joerussellflytying 6 лет назад

@bbcustomoutdoors 6 лет назад

Great looking fly! I can see that catching panfish as well as trout.

@Stonefly85 6 лет назад

Love your videos! Looks like a nice MB Spider version. I too love wood duck in my wets and nymphs.

@FarmyJoe76 6 лет назад

I see what you did there. Well played, sir!😜

@duanemarshall330 6 лет назад

LMAO! This was one of the best - and funniest - of your vids! Loved it! Gotta tie one up now!

@jeremystauffer8467 6 лет назад

Major Woody? Interesting fly name

@davesmith7906 6 лет назад

Awesome name-age as usual Tim, good to see you at the N.J. show, only it’s tough to wait out the line. Maybe next year or one day at River Stix or the gorge. Thx

@jamescraven480 6 лет назад

This fly finally broke the Jinx at Parvin Lake. Great fly thank you.

@Scarbis93 Год назад

This one was amazing

@handcannon1388 6 лет назад

Usually, fishing with a Major Woody is distracting at best. Swinging and twitching it generally doesn't help matters, either.

@GrayBrandon26 6 лет назад

HA!

@seanmooney3907 6 лет назад

Funny, LOL!! Thanks, Sean

@slickydicky 4 года назад

I was arrested for swinging it

@joeduca8582 6 лет назад

Great tutorial Tim! I learned a technique with every step as well as different ways to fish it. Had a few chuckles too! Tell me, if you fish it longer than four hours should you see a General Practitioner? 👍😯 Thanks Tim!

@franksurdal8148 6 лет назад

My God you got really good videos on your channel. The footage and quality is impressive! I got some crazy fishing videos myself and I should learn more from you. Thank you!

@foxchaser21 Год назад

Nice👍

@codyunczur7527 6 лет назад

Great pattern! If you save the fuzzy fibers from the duck feather to use as the body and thorax dubbing (kind of like a CDC dubbing), you can tie this fly with just one feather!

@lunkerkid2955 5 лет назад

I started using the fuzzy bits as dubbing for the larger collar section, and it does a great job capturing the bushy look. I just made sure to cut off the little white bits that can stick when the fluff gets stripped. It also helps because the color of the fly remains very consistent, not to mention it is a bit more thrifty too. Thanks for the suggestion

@Scarbis93 Год назад

What a great tip, I didn’t have the right color dubbing and now I don’t need it

@davidross7215 6 лет назад

A good looking head makes a better looking woody. Indeed!

@frankbarnick9606 6 лет назад

Nice one. Barbless is best.

@MatthewSullivan12 6 лет назад

I'm a bass fisherman so I would like you to do more bass patters. Thanks!

@seizedcarcass8440 8 месяцев назад

I’d say Tim is fond of wood duck. 😂

@User-es2yz 6 лет назад

Sounds like the northeast special with those insects!

@ChrisWalklet 6 лет назад

great

@thomaskevinbeatty 6 лет назад

Hey Tim, I will try this one for sure! One of my go to MF patterns is very similar just not as dressed up. It's a great color when the MF's are the same. The Lemon Wood Duck is a perfect part of my MF arsenal! KEV

@gsmith9169 6 лет назад

Very much like a Bird's nest by Cal Bird, which is also a very effective fly and uses almost all the same materials.

@PonyFoot123 6 лет назад

LMAO love the joke at the end

@Habaneroranger 5 лет назад

I’ve heard of another pattern called “big Jim and the twins”. Can you show us how to tie that?

@snowchicken4760 4 года назад

Yes

@juholaakso924 6 лет назад

Tie a red tag. Its really simple and effective.

@Thalarctos. 6 лет назад

Waou !! ;-)

@bruceduke4485 6 лет назад

Great pattern! Can't find that dubbing anywhere on internet. Any suggestions?

@Thrashzer 6 лет назад

Tim, did you show your Major Woody at the NJ show??? 😆

@t_man785 6 лет назад

Thrashzer yes he did

@benjaminsmeltz4424 6 лет назад

Could someone reply with a link to where I could buy the wood duck thread, I can’t seem to find it

@brooktroutangler5917 6 лет назад

Folks have been known to tie the blue ball egg fly off the back of the major woody

@icejunki 6 лет назад

Brooktrout Angler priceless!!

@michaelstallsmith9743 6 лет назад

Where does one find the Wood duck dubbing? I could not even find it on Wapsi's web site.

@buckshot21000 4 года назад

Do you have a video of tying a classic BWO fly?

@ralphs007 6 лет назад

Nice video. Would the Major Woody suffer from shrinkage in cold water? ;0)

@dannydufresne4159 6 лет назад

Tim, the Regal Vise you have, do they truly have solid holding power? Or is there hook slippage? Awesome pattern Dude!

@christopherorman5769 6 лет назад

I'll chime in to say that the Regal vise with the stainless steel jaws (as seen here), I think is the best vise on the market for tying trout flies. The original, regular jaws, for me, are good down to about an 18, and that becomes a bit questionable. I view the original jaws, however, as a phenomenal streamer vise. Anyway, Regals provide tons of holding power (I've never had a hook slip, etc), are easy and quick to use, and you don't crank knobs to adjust. I know Ed Engle swears by his.

@dannydufresne4159 6 лет назад

Thanks for the info, I'm one step closer to buying one! I have a Griffin Spyder, and like you said I'm frustrated with the fiddly knobs, a good vise, but has it's downfalls.

@flyfishingeasternsierras8664 6 лет назад

I have a regal and it's a nice vise. The hook hold is absolutely perfect, but the jaws are a bit big for anything smaller than an 18. It also isn't a true rotary vise. I'd recommend a peak rotary, which I also have.

@flyfishingeasternsierras8664 6 лет назад

Even the standard peak jaws can go down to the smallest hook size imaginable

@christopherorman5769 6 лет назад

Are you using the stainless jaws on your Regal? The stainless jaws make a huge difference. Ed Engle ties down to a 32 on his (I don't go that low, for a variety of reasons). I don't find the Peak close to the quality of a Regal, but then again, opinions are like...

@dinoconsabor 3 года назад

There’s nothing quite like fishing with a Major Woody 🤣 On the serious side, what is that small round tool that you use to snip the thread after the whip finish?

@johnkosick1464 Год назад

He put a sharp bevel edge on the other end of the whip finish tool. I think he shows that under the "tools' playlist.

"A good looking head..."

@ruslankoptsov205 6 лет назад

This is rather dry fly i guess

@angeladavidson9675 3 года назад

Great pattern, great video, as always. But honestly, Tim, I had hoped you to be more evolved than demonstrated by your not-at-all-subtle innuendo. Sigh...
