This is one I will just purchase at the shop.
Charlie, thank you for responding to my request of a paradrake. I tied a few way back in the 1980's for the green drake hatch on the Frying Pan river. I like this version on the curved hook. Norm Frechette
Insane - great tie!! As a relatively new fly tier (5 years), I'm humbled. Again.
Gorgeous looking fly, Charlie
Thanks for the video and Happy New Year
Man! That’s a bitch to tie! Probably among the tougher ones you tie. Great pattern and nice job, Charlie.
Good tie! Wow. Thanks for sharing
That is a beauty Charlie!
In all the different patterns I’ve tied over the years not once did I ever feel like, “I’d rather buy it, than tie it” like watching this pattern here today. Just to imagine you were tying this fly at age thirteen… it’s no surprise you evolved into the meticulous master fly tier we all admire today!
I anticipate needing a lot of practice on this one for sure. Great job CC, as always, and thanks for sharing.
This is some tie
Great work.
Way too techinical for this old man.
I tied one as a blue damsel imitation in the late 90’s and never once since
Wild. I'm about to buy some tools and a vise. Really enjoying your ties, this one is especially interesting. Subscribed... thanks a lot.
I remember tying a few of these back in the day... can't say I ever got very good at it cause they're a little fiddly.
p.s. I f you'd've left that 4th tail no self-respecting trout would've taken it.🤠
Loved the West Bank Anglers shop back in the day. Jay Buchner?
two thumbs up 👍👍
How good is that, lovely practical finish to the parachute hackle. Thanks for sharing Charlie. All the best from Yorkshire England
Nano thread is so awesome .I do this method for all my Hex flies Charlie. As Charlie is wrapping back to the end of the tail ,you see he is using moderate pressure on the wraps . This gives more floatation to the fly and doesn't cut the deer hair in the process. I like to invert( eye down-tail up and the post at right angle with my thread hanging down) my fly in the vice before wrapping the hackle .I fine I have more control during my wipe finish at the end.
Ok, I’m gonna take the paradrake challenge tonight…..thanks for sharing this ultra cool pattern!
Great flashback! Used to do quite well with these on Hex hatches. Accidentally cutting away the moose mane tails was a joy!
Good tie on that tricky fly. I am thinking macrame yarn would work well for the wing too. i liked your choice of hook.
