The New Fly Fisher has the great Simon Gawesworth talking down stream dry fly fishing: • Dry Fly Fishing Down S... and the Jensens are doing some small stream dry fly fishing that’s epic! • Rainbow Trout Insanity...
I don't fly fish, tie flies nor think I could ever afford to, but these beautiful little creations are a joy to watch take shape. Thanks for sharing your expertise with us all :)
Never say never, you can get some good fly fishing outfits for cheap, highly recommend
This video changed my whole parachute game! Thank you!
Tying in your parachute post this way makes tying any parachute pattern super easy! I use it for all sizes from big 10's to tiny 20's. its a great way to get novice like myself tying almost perfect looking parachute patterns.
I never saw the Antron twist before but it really is a great technique. Just this morning I tried it on a Parachute Adams and it worked perfectly. I also tied the Parachute Hare’s Ear technique you described and turned out some great looking flies. Thanks for the well-done video sharing your expertise.
Tied a dozen 12 and 14s using this technique. Twisting the post, and shortening the hackle on one side of the stem works PERFECT for staring the wrap. Been tying for over thirty years and learned a lot from tlv over the years. Thanks Tim!
Just tied a couple up and will try on my next trip. Magnificent video and technique of a master. Thanks from down-under in NZ.
Outstanding parachute techniques.
Thanks Tim!
Thank you for doing these videos. I recently got my first fly rod and thanks to your videos i'm not a complete mess with it.
These videos are very usefull to me. My only other guides to this unique type of fishing are my uncle and a small libary of Lefty Kreh books on this sport
a nice looking para hare's ear, thanks for the tie Tim.
Lovely video Tim!
Actually about 30 tail fibers. Not that I really care or anything. lol I'm definitely gonna use that new post technique. Superb tie. As I have said many times on this channel, many thanks!
I actually just finished tying a series of pheasant tail duns because I thought why not, then I see this?! Great pattern
Tim, as always, love your videos. For the parachute why poly here instead of calf hair? Seems like a lot of parachutes on Adams type flies go either or and curious if there are advantages one way or the other. Cheers!
Tim, do you ever tie in the wing post first, then the tail, I have found this to be more effective technique since you don’t mess up the tail when tying in the post?
Think you could use Antron or zlon as a poly fibre substitute for the post?
You can, though you’ll probably just post it as usual and not tie it in like Tim did here with the twist. Search his name and parachute; he’s got a bunch of other technique videos that’ll help you.
@@heatherpurvin5171 just ended up using Antron the same day I posted comment and it turned out fine :) thanks for your help tho Miss Heather much appreciated !
This is one of John Gierach’s patterns …
I thought the twisted post looked slick. Any reason why you couldn’t leave it twisted vs cutting? Is it for water shedding or aerodynamic (casting) reasons?
Tim, why did you revert to the old method of whip finishing the fly around the post instead of just using super glue or UV curable epoxy to cement the hackle to the post? Thanks.
I'm kind of curious about this as well. I've become addicted to using UV resin to secure the hackle, and you can get away with using such a small amount that I don't think it impacts the flotation.
@@yoursweatersux I've been securing my parachute hackles with a small drop of super glue on a bodkin that I place where the thread contacts the post. I got the idea from a Fly Fish Food video called Super Clean and Easy: Parachute Adams.
That occured to me as well. Might be this is a size 12? I use Tims CA technique on 20 22 and 24 parachute adams.
@@gravityalwayswins1434 In the Speedy Sparkle Purple Haze Tim ties a size 14 and doesn't whip finish. He just uses UV adhesive. I've tied size 12 parachutes and just used super glue, no whip finish. So far none have unwound.
Great bug, as usual. 1 question though...why not brassie size gold wire?
I can't speak for the tier in the video, but I have something internal that tells me it doesn't make sense to add wire to a dry fly. Metal = Sinking. it probably wouldn't hurt to use wire, but if I could use tinsel, it would help me sleep at night.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thanks.
Beginner here.. Any issue with using rabbit hair instead of deer hair for this fly?
Amazes me how people can give videos like this a thumbs down. The quality and clear instructions and skill in which it is produced deserves an accolade of its own.
Haters gonna hate. Nothing you can do about that, sadly.
They are probably worm drowners too.
I've been fishing for over 60 years. I always used Wulff Hair flies as searching patterns. However, this fly became my favorite. I use woodchuck fur guard hairs for the tail because they don't flair. I don't like metallic ribs so I use Zelon. I hackle it one size larger than called for. I have some tied up with squirrel dubbing. Use natural hair.
Very nice! Tight lines🕷️🐜🐛!!!!
I am new to your technique of creating the twisted parachute post. Great idea!!
Exelente atado felicitaciones desde Argentina!!!
