  • This pattern is a variation on the standard rusty spinner that has a good bit of added floatation and visibility. The addition of the palmered thorax hackle makes the fly much more visible and helps keep it afloat. I have used this pattern everywhere from the Henry’s Fork to the Frying Pan and it turns heads everywhere. I also use this fly as an “attractor” on rivers like the South Platte and Big Thompson during midday non-hatch periods during the summer months. Spinners don’t always fall all at the same time and the fish seem to be on the lookout for the random spinner. If you haven’t had much luck with traditional spinners, try this pattern. It is much easier to see in the fading evening light so common to spinner falls.

    Who wants to catch fish on ugly flies? Exactly...if you tie, tie with style. Nice instruction Charlie. Thanks.

    This has been my reference video for biot body flys for awhile. Your instruction combined with your camera work makes the techniques illustrated here very easy to follow. I also use this 'pattern' for a paraloop version or hackle stacker if you prefer. Thanks Charlie

    Charlie the ease you demonstrate in tying these incredibly precise flies is nothing short of amazing. Thanks for taking the time to make the videos. Great tips on splitting the tails.

    The badger hackle is a nice touch. I've been working on a mayfly pattern lately and one of the things I dislike about it is having the white grizzly stem around the thorax. Maybe I'll grab the magic marker on the next one.

    Charlie, I've been tying for 30 years, since I was 24. I am not without tying skill, but you have überskills... Keep the clear demonstrations coming, I enjoy your videos and learn much from your frequent "hot tips". As I read you are right-handed, did you start out using the bobbin with your right-hand and then switched to left for bobbin-use in order to speed tie commercially, keeping the scissors in your right-hand?

    • @CharliesFlyBox
      @CharliesFlyBox  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I wish I was that smart! My first vise had a wing nut to tighten the jaws and it was on the near side when facing left so that’s how I thought you were supposed to do it. In hindsight, it’s a better way!

    That biot is certainly easier to use than having to soak quill in hair rinse like I learned years ago from Del Mazza, the great fly tyer from Utica, NY.

    Must be nice to catch SOOOOOOooooo many fish you can be picky about whether the fly is ugly or not... Love it. By the way, I will happily catch fish on ugly flies. haha

    Palmering is a specific term for a specific job, like winding a hackle, terms best used for their own job. Nice fly though.

      Ya know, you can pinch the barb after you tie the fly, right? I pinch them after I tie the fly on my tippet. It’s just how I’ve always done it. But thanks for that…feel better?
