Thanks for watching. When creating videos sometimes I have to think outside the normal. I'm just not normally abnormal enough to think of this sort of stuff all the time. Thanks for commenting.
@@RadReelingFishing *The inshore grassy edges just at the sand flats areas west of old Curry Creek before hitting Roberts Bay at the Tamiami Bridge used to be good winter flounder fishing but that was 25 year ago... A definition of fantasy is that if it looks like a human and has a tail it is a mermaid... and if talks it is a fisherman* ...gw
Thanks for watching Chris. It was a lot of fun trying to come up with a different way of tying these and I like saving a few dollars over the long haul too.
Dude that rig is 1 part brilliant and 9 parts terrifying. You know you can get a starter vice plus bobbin for $15 on eBay right? Or use vice grips plus a $3 bobbin, and save yourself a trip to the hospital :/ This is a sub 30 second fly without power tools. And it’ll look better with more control and the right end in the vice :)
Thanks for commenting and sharing a good deal on Ebay. I suppose the drill could work as a vise with the hook turned the traditional way too and a fly tied manually. I like your idea for vice grips. Some grips clamped to a bench would be an alternative as well.
You don't need to spend $50 on fly tying equipment. I bought the Colorado 102 Supreme on the Zon (Amazon) for $15 about 3 months ago,a bobbin holder for 2.something....we'll say $3.00, 25 wooden bobbins $5.00 (for different color 40wt sewing threads,5500 yds... NO cotton or other rotting material),Whip finisher $4.50 for a total of a whopping $27.50. You'll also save about half your flashing/hair each time too because you won't have to use as much so you can begin wrapping the thread.
Thanks for taking the time to share your great finds online. I can see how this hobbie could be a lot of fun. If I ever get a fly rod I'll probably make the investment. I think I've tied enough teaser flies to last for five years already. Do you fish freshwater?
@@RadReelingFishing I'm actually just starting off tying jigs for Crappie,Bluegill,etc. I don't fly fish,doesn't interest me. I do fish fresh primarily but do fish the surf when I'm there.
Good one JC! All you need now is a sewing machine, and before long, we will see your creations on the top Cat walks of the USA! All the best for 2020 to you & yours.
I'm on my way out of the door to pick up : some colorful wigs, some super glue, some hooks, some other, colorful fixings! Thanks for the great idea of using a battery powered drill! I'm wondering if these flies will work in fresh water lakes in NY?
@@RadReelingFishing I’ve never seen a video that deserved a like as much as this video this is the best video ever I’m so glad I found it and I can do it at home thank you ever diy type videos need to buy stuff I got my dads drill and would be a fun hobby and maybe I’ll show the bluegill at the dock something new that they will bite
@@RadReelingFishing I just made my first fly using ur trick I don’t have any color so I used a plain color to see if I could do it and I did it so we are gonna check Walmart and get me some color hope I can catch a nice panfish with it
Question JC. Can a circle hook be used for this application? If not, please explain. Thanks for all of your tutorials. I’ve learned so much from you videos.
Hey JC, Where do you get those Pompano Jigs? Do you make (Pore) you own or purchase them somewhere? I make my own and like the look of that jig. Tight Line
I could see how this might be a new hobby emerging if I fished in freshwater more often. I think I'll just stick to fishing with these ugly teasers I made. Thanks for watching and commenting.
There's an idea. I'm not ready to sell physical products yet, too many headaches to deal with when it comes to sales tax collection and reporting. I don't think the profit would be worth it yet. Some day when the channel gets a ton more subscribers I'll add some cool products to the channel. Thanks for watching.
