Tying the Anti-Static Cruncher by Davie McPhail 

I started a RU-vid channel a couple of weeks ago. I haven’t any gear but I’ve got the flies. Since I’m largely self taught I do take recipes and modify/improve them. Like Reed Palmers “Happy Hooker” MMM in size 2. Mine is the “Bloodline MM” usually size 6 and 8. The fly has caught innumerable big trout on the Missouri River north of my former office at the Montana DOT. All I can do is learn from you so keep it up because I memorize instantly. And the patterns you taught have caught fish for me I didn’t hold out much hope for. Thanks for inspiring me and leading the way in fly tying. Hands down the most perfect examples of any fishing fly have come from your kind gift to your brethren who swing streamers and puff no 18’s into a far off beaver dam in search of good eating. THANKS FOR THE LIKE AND THE INSTRUCTION. You’re the best Mr McPhail. ABY

Excellent,Thank you Mister McPhail.

Lovely fly Davie. Nicely tied and well explained. Thank you for sharing.

Very nice Davie! I use the anti-static bag strip on a lot of my flies - I think that the bluish sheen on the material looks more like trapped gas in a nymph skin or an air bubble on a boatman than regular silver does. The fish like it, and that is more important than my speculations. Thanks for posting. ATB! Hank

It’s a fact that I do tend to veer towards the old patterns, but this one does look nice. I’ll definitely have to give this a go. I too look out for bits of packing paper and shiny stuff that (cut into thin strips) might work so snap! Thanks Davie.

Great looking fly there mate. The bows and bookies would hammer on that puppy. Thanks for sharing mate. Best Regards, Ken

Great looking fly, have never used the anti static material but will give it a shot .

Sweet little fly! Nice one Davie a real Bobby dazzler!

Hello Davie, I have a tons of this sh*t, and now I can do something useful out of it:)! I want to note that there are packages of different shades. And what do you think about an over wings for bugs made of such material? Many thanks for such a great idea!

👏 Veri good

Davie, do you fish with this pattern as a dropper, right? Do you use it in an special combo?
