Tying the Ninja Diawl-Bach by Davie McPhail 

Thanks Davie, great tutorial! That dye job is fantastic, I could see the glint of red you used in the dye process. Peacock black is my favorite color in the synthetic materials also. You not only have an eye for color, but also how to use flash materials to enhance those colors. I learn so much from you, thanks. ATVB to you Davie.

What a great body! You could use that with a wing as well, which is what I often get from you. I can tie the pattern, but they often lend themselves to other things, other patterns and styles. This is a great fly, but I can add to it as well! Thank you as always Davie!

Great piece of tying, looks like a grown up version of the Blackstone buzzer.

Super. As always, beautiful. Thank you.

Black hooks seem to be 'in' at the moment. I have thousands of Kamasan hooks that no one seems to want, now. I don't feel the hook colour is important, personally. Surely the fish can see it if it is either bronze or brown? Yet I have to admit that, to human eyes at least, black patterns look good on black hooks. This pattern is catching on fast at the moment, and it's easy to see why. Lovely tying Davie.

Hello Davie. I can totally see this pattern being killer out here! Thanks again for all these awesome videos. How is this for an idea; make DVD or offer digital download collections with your videos for sale. I'd love to have a signed DVD collection. All the best to you Davie. We still talk about your visit out here and meeting you.

This has Welsh origins Dave and means little devil

👍 great tie

Have you ever tried putting the tinsel on the underside of the fly? Or is that a wee much???

🇨🇿CZ. 👀👍🏻 super 👍🏻👋🏻

Hi davie just to let you know I had great success with the col downmans diawl bach with both rainbows and brown's , this one looks just as good,do you think it would be worth running some uv resin along the back ? i will be trying it out soon ,thanks again and all the best.

Hi Davie thanks for the excellent tie.I have two questions I hope you don't mind answering...what substitutes are there for jungle cock?secondaly do you think the wing buds are important on all the diawl Bachs variations?

domo arigatou gozaimasu Davie san!! ;))
