Cypert's Minnow - Great white bass fly - McFly Angler Fly Tying Tutorial
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 ก.ย. 2024
- This originally was developed by Charlie Cypert for fishing South Texas white bass runs. It can also be used well with sunfish, bass and crappie. You can add some lead to get it down faster, or even some heavier dumbbell eyes if you choose. However traditionally it is tied with bead chain eyes. Its a very simple pattern that can be tied in a number of different color combos and you can fill a box quickly. I would call this a guide style fly, that allows someone to make many flies in a short amount of time with low cost materials. You can tie these in a number of different sizes as well.

Gonna have to tie some of these for the detroit river white bass run! Good tying!
Thank you, yeah let me know how they do for you up there, I know they work well down here also
Hey man! I’ve only been fly tying for a couple months now and your videos have taught me soo many good texas flies! Thank you and keep them coming I thoroughly enjoy them.
Thank you! Glad they have helped. If you want more one on one help check out my patron page.
Ahh. I first saw this on Richard Zieger's warmwater contributions on flyanglersonline. Great tie.
Thanks, yeah it’s been a tie for a while, absolutely great pattern that is easy also! Hard to beat
Finally some use for my oversized flash braid!
Long story, but I'm definitely down for making a ton of these!
Thanks!!!
Awesome man!
I like the white or green body for bass in the Guad
For sure
I’ll take a dozen. 😂😂😂. Man those look wonderful, I can only imagine how hard the white bass hit them. Ty for the tutorial.
Glad you liked it. Yeah it’s a good little pattern. I hope I did it justice for the original creator of it
Great tying video..great fly! I’ve caught many species of fish on them in various sizes. Have a great weekend McFly!
👍👍🎣
Thanks man, you have a great weekend also
Great video
Thanks
Been tying this fly for decades with a few variations. I use plastic bead chain for the eyes,slower descent. The hook is nickeled for the shine . First part of the body is Fluor red floss then the body is finished with pearlescent white,over wrap is pearlescent tinsel which is covered with cement.
Nice, yeah it’s been around for a while. I Hadn’t heard about it until recently though. Pretty neat pattern.
It’s a knockoff of a saltwater pattern. The body is tinsel ,the area between the 2 braid arms is filled with epoxy,rather hefty fly
Hmm that’s an interesting pattern I’ve never seen it before. I would love to try it for crappie
Give it a go, I bet it will work. Let me know how it does for ya
Love this pattern for Black Crappie. I like to weight it a little bit more with some lead wire a quarter back from the eyes. Chartreuse and silver seems to be the color they like.
Oh yeah I can imagine it would work great for them! And for sure, add some weight, I think it would be great that way
That is a an outstanding fly. can't Waite to tie it. I like the way it looks.
It’s pretty cool huh? Yeah when I came across the pattern I just had to figure out how to tie it and make a video on it for everyone to see.
For sure gonna do some of those easy to tie
For sure, glad to hear it
Nice small minnow! Will make some fore sure,for my panfish))) Thanks for good idea!
Ya man, thanks
Will definitely be giving this one a try.
Awesome ya it’s easy to tie and effective so a win win. I forgot the name of the guy who came up with it but he got a winner for sure
@@McFlyAngler - I’m thinking that it could work for Bull Trout and with olive Mylar perhaps Rainbows in a lake I know that has lots of perch fry in spring.
Maybe. Give it a try.
Pretty good looking minnow, it’ll probably work on trouts too
I’m sure it would.
Beautiful colors
Pretty right? They catch fish also! Haha!
@@McFlyAngler could a weighted version be tied if someone wanted to fish it with a spinning reel? I live in western NC and my local lake is lake James. Loaded with white bass. Used to be a well known walleye lake until white perch and white bass were introduced and ate most all of the walleye fingerlings.
I’d be happy to try and make a heavy version for you to cast if you want? If you have Instagram then message me there and I can get you pricing. Otherwise email me, My email is on my TH-cam home page under the about section
@@McFlyAngler that would be awesome! I'll look you up on Instagram
Nice! This will be a new addition to my box for sure😁
Awesome! Good luck! I hope you catch some nice ones with it
I would take a fine point Red Marker & add a Gill line on the sides too.
Great idea
That is a neat fly.
Yeah pretty interesting pattern.
@@McFlyAngler yeah it is. I am new to fly fishing and tying. Luckily Risen Fly's new brick'n mortar shop is 2-miles down the road from me. Ryan and his staff are pretty nice folks.
Oh they are great for sure! Your in good hands there. I’m happy to help with any questions also. In fact I’ve got a patreon page if your interested, and I can do 1 on 1 help with some of the tiers for you via phone calls or video chats. But yeah risen is very helpful and can also answer any of your needs in shop.
thanks this was exactly I was looking for!
Awesome!
@@McFlyAngler what is your favorite trout fly?
Anything that catches them. Every river is different
great method, new to me. thanks!
Ya it’s a cool pattern For sure
thats a great fly,Thanks
Yeah it’s a classic for sure. Still going strong and a good pattern after almost 100 years! Thanks
Awesome
Thanks
Love From Saginaw MI
Thanks
I knew the creator of the fly and used this all over the Brazos river and its lakes. I also throw a propeller on these and I get a lot of hits when nothing else is working.
Nice! Never met the guy, but he created a great pattern it seems like. A propeller might be a great option! Do you try to make it float when using it? Like stir the top with the prop?
@@McFlyAngler he was a cool old guy. I used to just swing em or put them on a sinking line. However I am interested in making one float.
Yeah sounds like a good idea, maybe wrap with foam instead of chenille? Add mono eyes instead of bead chain also so it will stay up?
@@McFlyAngler boobie eyes as well. Now that I'm in Colorado I use boobie flies a lot
I love this video tie! Btw, how big in diameter is the mylar tubing you are using? The link you provided to it doesn't say how big it is. The reason I am asking is that I have some, but think it may be too big. Thank you!
Good question, the package I’ve got didn’t say. I’m sorry. I think the small to medium. The really large stuff might be too big on smaller versions but I think you can tie these much larger for bass as well. So try it on a larger hook if it doesn’t work on the smaller
Show👏👏👏
✌
Thanks for the Video …… nice to see and think in something, other that our current Babylon.
Prayers for Peace 🙏🏻
✨🎣💫
God bless Brian! Thanks
Blessings and Thank You
Have you tied this in a smaller size/shorter length hook?thank you for the tips
There are 3 sizes in the picture that is on the video. Too short and it will be too stubby though….
What size mylar cord did you use
I think it simply said medium. Not sure if there is a mm size to it, I’ll look tomorrow
what is your favorite trout fly?
Depends on the river I’m fishing. Also time of year, etc. I don’t have a favorite necessarily. Just love fishing what works best
Великолепно 👍🤝🙋♂️
Класс!👍🤝🇰🇿
Oh great not I know what to do will all the milar tubing I have had for years & never used
Lol, right? I’ve got some stuffed deep in a scrap box. I found this pattern and promptly pulled it out. Lol
