Weighted Bend Back Bait Fish: Fly Tying Step by Step
A handy wee salt water pattern to chuck around. A pretty simple pattern that has a lot of triggers that should get fish chomping on it. I have added the dumbbell eyes to help get the pattern down in the deeper water around Wellington harbor but you could also tie it without them and add some eyes to a lighter variation of the pattern

Saltwater Shrimp: Fly Tying Step by Step
มุมมอง 1423 หลายเดือนก่อน
A pattern I like to have a few of for my local estuaries. This is tied in a lighter variation for shallower water but can be adapted to be heavier as well which I touch on in the video. Cast them out blind or in front of sighted fish and slowly twitch it back towards you. Or it can be fished with long retrieves as well. The predator fibres and ice straggle combine to make a body with plenty of ...
Ribbed Brassie: Fly Tying Step by Step
มุมมอง 3013 หลายเดือนก่อน
A great pattern for the beginner! This is a variation on an old classic called the brassie. In this instance rather than starting the wire wraps down the bottom of the fly you start them at the top so that you can then wrap them back up to create the rib. To be fair to the original you also get that rib look from the wire wrapped up the body but this method gives it amore pronounced profile. I ...

The RAT salmon fly pattern is a classic example of a hair wing salmon fly pattern. These are great fun to tie and by all accounts wonderful fish catchers as well.

The color in the name is dictated by the color of the body created with the floss through the pattern. In this case I ha...

Emergers are always great to have a stock of in your fly box. This is a play on an early variation of them called a flymph.

    Have you used this now as a snail imitation? How has it worked for you? I'm in the western US where we have many snails in our desert reservoirs. Fish are usually gorged with them. I'm still working on finding a pattern that will work. Do you fish these with much movement, or do you just let them hang near the weed beds?

    • @southofnorthflyfishing
      @southofnorthflyfishing 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to yet. Been looking for a chance but haven't ticked the box for where I'm fishing yet. Most of the patterns I fish here are small 18 nymphs and small dries. That being said the guy I tied them for had some success with them down in the south island around Tekapo which is why I tied them in the first place. He claimed a few big fish with them I believe.

    That’s nice, but why strip half the hackle? You paid good money for that, and chucked away half of it. Maybe you NZ folks are very affluent, but more important, it really doesn’t look good wound like that.

    • @southofnorthflyfishing
      @southofnorthflyfishing ปีที่แล้ว

      I disagree as far as if it looks good, I like it. But with that being said its completely subjective as far as that goes from both of us and doesn't really matter. As for the why, which I think is more important. You could absolutely tie this with a full hackle if you wanted to however gvien we have the deer hair wing which is going to assist with the floating of this fly I strip half the hackle to change the foot print on the water surface and give a more sparse silhouette. I've only used this one for a short time so can't say I've used it enough to say one way is better than the other for sure but that's my theory.

I think DBY is a great, versatile material. It also has some cool colours and is simple to use in a range of ways I wanted to demonstrate which is why I used it for this video. Hopefully you can get your hands on some to try but if not then that's alright I'm sure if you substitute something else in it will work as well 👍 all the best with it either way.

When tying in final rib heat the end of it ( just touch it with the flame of a lighter) and quickly pull the end .It will leave a "curlyQ" ON THE END .tye that onto the hook and pull down when winding down the bend.

    Great looking emerger indeed. One point however is that counter wrapping the ribbing means wrapping it in the opposite direction around the hook shank. Does it make a difference, probably not much since the rib wraps are spaced far enough apart to adequately capture the dubbing.

    Braeden, excellent presentation and execution of a nicely proportioned nymph, it looks just right. Two questions, are the fibres on the hen saddle patch short enough for tying on the Kamasan B 110 in size 14 and 16; do you fish this nymph as a dropper in heavier water such as on the Tongariro, or is it reserved for sight fishing?

    • @southofnorthflyfishing
      @southofnorthflyfishing 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Reg, thank you very much you can definitely fit the feathers on a 14 and 16 b110 there are some smaller ones but also techniques you can use to fit larger feathers on and tie the rest as I have in this video. If you look up Tightline Productions he has a video called using large feathers on small hooks which is a great demonstration of a technique to do it. As for where I fish it you can use it for all of the above tie to the size you need and have at it. You could also put a bead in front of it and some lead wraps and make it your bomb nymph as well. All the best with it I hope it goes well
