วีดีโอ

I am so very glad you are okay, and sorry that this event happened. It is my number one fear that this will happen to me. I am now 60 and this story has changed my future fishing trips and gear choices. I may get rid of my chest waders completely & go with hip waders instead, in order to force myself to not go deeper than knee deep. I've had one scare this fall season, that plus your story is enough. I fish alone 95% of the time because having a partner during the week is rarely an option. I also ordered a fishing vest with floatation built in. Your story has spooked me, and it may have saved me. Thank you.

Reminds me of one Feb day at Tulsa low water dam. Had on all the winter wear and realized the water was rising. Ran back down the rock/sand bar to cross back to Riverside Dr about 1/4 mile. Washed into a sand flat there. The water was just about to come over the top of waders. Had them pulled up til I thought they would rip. Lucky for me the currents had leveled the area to flat. Saw a few people on the walking path and hoped it wasn't my last day. John Wayne was right.

Glad to see your still with us! Thanks for sharing as is good information.

You kind of glossed past one of the cardinal rules: if you're going into the water, don't go alone. I'll bank fish by myself, but anytime I'm in a boat or in the river (Norfork or White), I've got a buddy with me. Thank God you're going to be okay. I can only imagine how Montana must have felt. Recover, then worry about starting to post again. Your TH-cam friends will understand.

Thanks for sharing, glad you’re ok, very valuable information

So very glad you were able to survive such a life threatening experience. You are in my family’s thoughts and prayers. Great lesson to pass onto all of us. I’ve been thinking of wearing my water activated PFD when I fish from the bank. You just never know when the Good Lord is going to test you. Glad you are okay. Get better soon, we miss your videos!

😅Glad you made it!!!😁😅 Good thing Mantana kepted his head. 👍🤠✌️🙏🇺🇸

So very glad you made it thru this. Praying for a speedy recovery!

Shannon, so glad you survived. Valuable lesson to share. I had previously sent you a photo of my fishing life vest. An inflatable life vest is another option. Having your cousin Montana with you was your saving grace, but that was a thin fly line close to not being enough. That "tight line" was the best catch of his life.

Wow. What an amazing experience for me to watch this video. Thank you for sharing this and you are a very Blessed person. I am tying in South Africa and have learned so much from you and I absolutely agree that tying just calms the spirit and relaxes you. May you, your daughter and all that watch this video be Blessed out of your socks.❤

Thanks, went to 4 fly shops today looking for Mylar tubing to make cuda tubes for a friend heading to Cuba. All of them were out of it, I’ll snag this later today.

I have cracked the box while drilling holes. I’ve learned you won’t crack the holes if you open the box lid and drill from the inside while sitting the box on something firm. Thank you for the video.

cool, very strong fish! at what depth did you catch it?

I'm allergic to bees and I painted a aviary? bee farm in Kansas didn't get stung best honey i ever had

So you're saying I can buy a complete kit, for the same price as a single foam punch pattern.... Thanx Fella! You just saved me a lot.

Kansas needs more trappers they are advertising on billboards for it

trapping season was extended all year in Kansas

i 51 years young whippersnapper to most fly fishermen

i love this content

There is a link at Www.ivegotbugs.com to help support this club.

Thanks for these useful tips Shannon,. FYI the audio was a bit weak, try raising it on your next post. Tight lines!

If you use a two fly rig, tied off a tag, those bands are great to put on the rod for an adjustable hook keeper. I also use them for my yarn/wool indicators [dorsey indicator] and Mr Herd told me to use them instead of tape to hold the guides when rod building.

👍 Don’t forget to pick up the free tooth brushes, too! For fly fluffing!

Good video. Great content! 🎉

Amazing I wish you and your daughter the best on this fly fishing club great ideas.Thanks for the info love your content keep up the amazing work.

Fly shops charge an arm and a leg for a few cents worth of materials many of them don’t even tie themselves I would rather help the 13 year old working from home just trying to save a few cents on price gouged materials

Thank you . Great video

What’s the shelf life?

Where do you buy your old egg material ? Thank you another great video

Just wondering how the stuff looks in the water/wet? The reason I have preferred Eggstacy over the other materials is because of how it looks while in the water, and also the sink rate. Love the opening BTW

It's a UK company !

May. Be you said it in the video and I just missed it, but what do you feed them?

Rubbing alcohol works for regular fingernail polish that is getting thick also. I often use a drop of black on silver bead chain eyes. Because I am into it so often and use so little it often gets dried out and very thick.

Do you have any videos of tying egg patterns with this material would love to see and learn how you do it.

Love your videos glad I found you on TH-cam keep up the great informative videos I live here in Cedaredge Colorado so I have been tying my own flies now for about a year absolutely fell in love with it so much to learn thanks for what you do I really appreciate it.

is that a wing feather?

Just ordered 4 colors from Hobby Lobby. Also I got my latest order from Temu, loving the stuff I find.

Your the best!!! Awesome!!!

Thanks. I've been looking at that stuff. I could not figure out how to use it.

🎉🎉JUST SUPER GREAT RESEARCH,,,🎉

🎉🎉🎉 JUST LOVE YOUR. CHANNEL 🎉… THANK YOU FOR YOUR DEDICATION,, AS THESE VIDEOS OF EDUCATION,,, AND HACKS,,,, ARE NOT EASY TO DO,, AND QUITE TIME CONSUMING,,, BUT TXS FOR YOUR CREATIVITY YOU BRING TO THOUSANDS 😮😮😮 ,, STAY SAFE TXS AGAIN 😅😅

Hey there. You have some good ideas for economy tying that’s for sure, but I really like that material. I’m definitely gonna get some and give it a try! Thanks for showing us what the finished fly looks like, time to make some to take some.

Thanks! That's an awesome alternative to crappy plastics!

Another great video, will definitely be trying this out, thank you!

I always learn something watching your videos. Thank you keep up making these videos

Thank you for showing a fly made from the material being described. Is the faux suede a bit stiff? It seemed to stick out straight from both ends of the hook.
