Good morning Davey, very nice creation you have here. I rewatched your Hendrickson nymph video as I will be going to Upstate NY with a friend. These bugs should be moving around and maybe even hatching while we’re there. I’m going to tie some of them best I can with my available material and let you know how it works. Hopefully you can enjoy a couple days on the stream too. Be well. Tom T from NJ
Looks good, it’s the best Hendrickson imitation I’ve seen anyway, I’ve noticed a lot of fly dressers try to invent there own nymphs etc. but patterns like this,pheasant tail etc are designed for a purpose and that’s to imitate a proper insect
@@stevepuyear2738 Oui or that's what I have always been told. I have always been here in Texas so I sound like cornbread but when I was a kid I met some of my grandfathers {Yankee transplant] relatives form Quebec and Massachusetts. They sure sounded funny and hearing them pronounce our last name didn't sound the same lol
Another great tie. When I break off extra fine wire, I’ve always struggled getting a good grip on the wire. I saw you did also. I now grab the wire, close to the hook, with my hackle pliers. It twists off very easy, and now holds the wire for the next fly. Great pattern.
Thank you for showing this leggy nymph pattern. It is quite popular in the Pacific North West of North America. We tie it in olive and walnut brown. Sometimes with a flashback thorax cover.
thank you thank you thank you!!! not to speak for anyone else but I almost become hyper-obsessive when it comes to patterns and representations, it's refreshing to see someone of your caliber admit to a span-new patterns based on a request of a natural... thanks 1000x again for all the content and inspiration
Great pattern! There is a book that I would recommend if you find the time. It's "Selective Trout" with illustrations by Dave Whitlock. It was a seminal work that goes deep into entomology and the "triggers" that go into fly styles and construction. A great book for North American styles and maybe UK as well.
Hi David, Marabou makes a great body so I wouldn't hesitate to tye a few with it so give it a go as you'll not go wrong tying a few up for your box..I'm glad you liked the fly.. All the very best Davie
Why does it keep happening to me that the thread I use Extreme Standard 8/0 6/0 when tying the music constantly breaks, some say it's up to the bomb, others say it's up to the end, can you help me with that?
Hi André Litzelmann, I use Veniards varnish and I also use their thinners which will extended the use of the varnish , I have attached a link to them for you to see..You will have to find one of their stockists to buy some...

Hi davie I'm following you on Facebook but I don't have the option of commenting on your posts dose anyone know why ?...I've done the add friend request do I have to wait until the friend request is accepted before I can comment ?.....
Hello Davie. Do you accept tying challenges from your comments here? if so I watched a Marc Petitjean video where he tied a mayfly in a way I have never seen. I'm not sure if you've tied this in a video yet, but it is really kicking my butt! th-cam.com/video/7QhjbGlaO70/w-d-xo.html that is where he starts tying it. Its almost 100% CDC. Thank you sir!
Who are you going to leave your hands to a great looking nymph watch you all the time
Absolutely beautiful work as always Davie sir brilliant stuff
Another beauty Davie. Love the idea of cdc for gills. Great tip thank you.

Ahh, morning coffee with Davie and fly fishing on my mind here in very wintery Montana. 😉👍
I was just watching Dave from Engles Coach Building in Joliet Montana, it looks very wintery there.

i wonder if my salt bay mullet will eat this bug... going to try it..our sea mullets are very picky havent caught one yet unless i snag it
Муха - класс! Благодарю, Дэви!👍🤝🇰🇿
Отличная работа,👍
Have you thought about using yellow dyed marabou for the body and peacock for the thorax? Great fly.
Hi David,
Marabou makes a great body so I wouldn't hesitate to tye a few with it so give it a go as you'll not go wrong tying a few up for your box..I'm glad you liked the fly..

Which varnish do you use for the heads? Thank you very much and greetings from Canada ;-)
