Tying Tip Snowshoe Rabbit Foot 

Thanks 😃😃😃

Thanks a lot. Glad you liked it 😀

Thanks. Its great material. Very durable, easy to maintain and it keeps buoyancy longer than most wing materials. Cheers Vladimir 😃🍺

Thank you for taking time to watch it. Glad you liked the video

Thank you so much 😀🍻

Thank you. I really appreciate your comment. I am glad to know that it helps what i do with those videos

Thanks for watching. Snowshoe is an amazing material. Underrated for unknown reasons.... If used in different colours i think it beats deer and elk hair.

Thank you for watching.. I am trying to give something useful in all of my videos. Sometimes its not said directly, but i guess its clear enough. Anyway, thanks for taking time to watch some videos... Glad to habe you on the channel 😀

Thank you so much. I am happy to share if it can help 🍻🍻🍻

thank you very much. i am terribly sorry for late response. stay safe.. cheers :)

Thanks, Make few and try them. I am sure you will like it even more 😃

Thank you Torben, use it for some faster water and you will love it. This exact fly is for very rough waters, for normal rapids just use half of the rabbit foot hairs i used.

@@Oholisfliesandfishing I'll take some with me to Norway on next summers trip and let you know how they worked :-)..Last summer I visited Skalestrommen fly fishing i Lierne (middle of Norway) and he has very large snow show rabbit feet for sale (local big rabbit) , if you are looking for longer fibers (skalestrommen.no)

@@Thymallus1965 have tight lines there... I never heard for that rabbit. I will have a look. Thank you for the info.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 And how was the dinner? Thank you, glad you liked it

@@Oholisfliesandfishing Dinner was excellent - feet are pinned out for drying. Below freezing temperatures and 10 cm of ice on my beaver pond! I've tied a couple odd flies but the real fly tying season starts after Christmas!

@@hankvana2149 happy tying season 😃😃

@@Oholisfliesandfishing I must have been good this year - Santa brought 6 EMPTY fly boxes - now I have to get to work filling them! One box will be for dry flies - I am really liking this pattern and think it will be ideal for the waters I fish. The smallmouth bass have absolutely NO respect and will brutalize a fly and the panfish (bless their tasty bodies) slobber all over flies so I need a pattern that will stand the abuse and still float well. Think that this pattern, heavily tied, will make a nice bulky fly that these (uncouth) fish prefer. Might even add more tail (splayed) and a coarse dubbed body, apply floatant to the whole thing and use it as a soft-bodied popper. Cheers! Hank

@@hankvana2149 thanks, glad you like it. Hope you will send me photos of fish that you got on it. 6 boxes.... thats going to be a nice, but sweet job filling them...

Thank you 😀. I love snowshoe because of floating properties too

Thanks a lot mate. Cheers. Vladimir 🍺

Thank you my friend.... China is safe now... Almost gone. I wish it would be the same for the rest of the world

@@Oholisfliesandfishing Me too :o(

Thanks a lot 😀

I had to... Its for rough water 😀😀

I was tying snowshoe down to sizes as small as 24. Its way more visible with snowshoe and its more buoyant resistant to teeth... So.... Good choice for tiny flies

@@Oholisfliesandfishing That's great, thanks for the reply, do you make any modification to how you dress these smaller flies ? Do you still add the polypropylene ? It sure does help to use the Nano Silk ! Thanks again, stay healthy.

@@rjf1877 it mostly depends on how small i tie. If the fly is smaller than 18 or 20 i usually keep it very simple. For small flies... 20-16 it depends on my mood.... If i am into details and extra steps than i add some details.... But its for my satisfaction doesnt have to do with catch rate... 🤣

@@Oholisfliesandfishing Thanks Vladimir, just one more question if you don't mind, on the #20 and smaller dries, do you use any body material or just use a thread body ? Thanks much !

@@rjf1877 usually just the thread. Dubbing the thread for too small flies can be challenging and its unnecessary so i tend to skip it

Cdl, coq de leon. Spanish rooster feather. It has stiffer barbules so it supports fly better. And it looks great

Its too curved... More appropriate for the trailing shuck. Personally i prefer straight CDL barbs. But as you said... Snowshoe will serve some purpose too.
