    Dragon flies in the Pacific Northwest Washington state and in BC Canada get very big I have seen fly fisherman use dragon fly patterns tied on a #2- 3 x streamer hook and catch big trout all day long on them during spring and early summer. Davie ties a beautiful dragon fly .

    Love to see you tie "semi realistic" trout patterns. Instructional, entertaining and tranquilizing. A perfect start of 2022. Thank you Davie - and happy new year from Norway.

    Dragon flys are prime trout food in many ponds and still waters where I am! Never saw one with red eyes here
    but easy to modify with melted mono eyes instead! Interesting you put lead lengthwise down each side almost the
    same as I have been doing to add weight and shape on my version. Will adapt your version to suit and give it a try!
    Thanks! All the best in 2022! 😊

    Hi Davie, happy new year. This is one of those flies I will leave to the experts like yourself! Beautifully done, but it’s just a step too far for me to do. I will enjoy just listening to you and watching an expert make it look so easy. Cheers mate. Harera

  • @nellinecronje6911
    @nellinecronje6911 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you build up the body with something bouyant like pieces of old floating fly line you'll get a pattern that almost hovers in the water column. Very useful for prospecting around weed beds without getting hung up so much.
