Kelly, I don’t think you talk too much because it shows your passion for teaching us the how and why and importance of proper fly tying.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
With the exception of mentioning yourself, I think you named all my favorite fly tyers in this video! Starting to really love the way you ramble. Shows your passion for this!
Gorgeous looking fly! The body, the collar is just wow it’s awesome! I actually laughed right out loud at the “kitten” hide joke. Great fly and video sir!
Wow Kelly that an AWESOME looking pattern.very cool.nice tie.thanks for sharing!!👍
I love Davy as well! He’s amazing.
Love the kitten.
Great looking fly!
Love the references to Davie McPhail. Love his flies.
Kelly, that looks close to Polly Rosborough’s Casual Dress nymph to me. I've been using the casual dress for years and is a good producing fly in lakes. I'm going to try this one, I'm sure it will work, looks good !

The Daiichi Alec Jackson steelhead/salmon hooks are some of the most elegant hooks out there .... I just love everything about them. I like this pattern, i think it would be nice in a jointed version as well. Take care.
Excellent fly, video, and exceptional camera work.
I have used that technique on my damsels.
I loved this video. When tying in the squirrel, could you use squirrel tail as a substitute or are those hairs too long?
I have a question. Why are steelhead hooks made like that with the eye of the hook open? Just curious! Thanks in advance and love the videos and you Kelly!!!
If you really appreciate David McPhail, I suggest you check out the “ Feather Bender”!
He is very precise tying his flys as well! Nice pattern! Tight lines! 😀
Kelly what's to say,awesome pattern,looks similar to the Casual Dress Fly,a little more beautiful tie,tight lines & bent rods
David, that's where the collar came from, Joe Brooks Trout page 255 Granny Granstrom's nymphs, just with black pine squirrel instead of muskrat. That was the first place I ever saw the puffy collar like that and been putting it in things ever since. Kelly
@@TheSlideinn in a smaller size # 8 or 10 on a TMC 200R or 5263 would be a great trout spey pattern.
Would it work in Burnt Orange or Fluo Brigth orange
Great fly, definitely looks like the Gartside sparrow. How do you get the wax to stick to your finger, what wax are you using? Maybe you could review that in a video.
The Hex bugger looks a lot like The Gartside Sparrow or the Casual dress flies.
That thread color is pretty cool and sexy
What is a hook size? Thanks
4-6. The recipe is listed in the description below.

Davie is awesome, but you ain't no slouch. I enjoy watching you both. I think you are little more informative about the history of the pattern.
Stupid question.. how do you get your wax so soft/on your finger? I always tie with GSP and I bought wax to use on it because you never shut up about it.. but.. this wax is hard as fuck
Skunked, put it in hot water for a minute and then pull off little thin pieces about the size of a dime or little smaller then they stick pretty good with just a little heat from your hand
@@TheSlideinn perfect! Much appreciated
Dig the new camera angle, thanks.
One thing about this fly pattern.
Yeah, this is a genuine fly pattern. Designed to catch something. There is not doubt. There are multiple things about this fly. That are proven to work. How we used to achieve. This kind of a fly. In the past. Is that we'd build up the 'taper' to the shape of the fly. Using materials like floss thread. It is achieved with great efficiency and success in this method, using the marabou feather. Which of course, gets progressively larger. As one moves from the rear part of the fly. To the front part. Of the fly.
I watched my first ever tutorial. About making a 'game changer' fishing fly. Not that long ago. And I was struck. By the amount of effort. That was taken in the case of 'game changer' flies. To obtain these profile shapes too. How I used to do this though. Back in the old days. When I made a smaller version. Of flies like this one. Was different.
We'd use something. Called 'floss' thread. I forget. But there is something that nymph anglers use. Called '300' Denier thread sometimes (or it could be '200'). Because of the fact. That it can save them. When making nymph flies. Of a certain size. A lot of time. Messing around with things. Like '100' Denier thread. When they want. To create a profile shape. The floss thread though. Weighs in at around the '600' Denier size. I think. It's actually a combination of around 'four' or 'five' smaller threads. That are wound together. Each is around '120' Denier in size (so that if you want only a couple of strands. To make '240' Denier say. You just take off. Two strands. From the floss spool. And use it. Flosses were good. To create profiles.
We don't talk about floss. As a fly tying material. That much any longer. And yes. There is a limit. To how much one can do with floss. Before the size of the hook. Gets even too large. For '600' Denier thread. To try and cope with. We don't make that many 'classical' looking flies. Any longer. Kelly's technique. Of building up profile. Using the marabou feather. Is a very neat solution. And you see. Attempts to do the same thing. In other contexts. Such as the 'Game Changer' fly that I described. Was another example of that.
It's just one. Of these consistent things. That one comes across. In making flies. That really do 'catch' fish. And I don't know exactly. Why it's such an effective trigger. But this is not. Just something that guys 'who make flies'. Like to do. Because it shows how skillful that one can be. In making flies. It's actually something. That is worth taking the time. To learn how to do. Because it helps. To fish with.
Despite all the remarks, Kelly, you talk too much. You do. Don’t know why I’ve watched your vids about 800 times…along with Davie McPhail and Barry Ord Clark and their books. I’ve e tried to explain this: there is tying and there is fishing. They are each arts and sciences related but separate. The beauty of the art from decades and centuries ago is being preserved by a small group. Oh, also Tim on Michigan’s Trout Flies. See how I was like you there?
