- The Killer Kabari is a fly that if I was only going to take one fly with me this would be it. And it has been in the past. It really is a brilliant pattern. I think it was the one of the first flies I tied back in the late 70's early 80's. I've been asked how I tie it so many times so I thought I'd have ago at a video. Considering this is my first attempt at filming one (properly) I tried to film it from the view you would see it if you were tying it. The pattern is pretty simple - how it should be!
Materials :-
Gamakatsu tenkara hook size 8 (#12) - Black 8/0 uni thread - pheasant hackle - fine copper wire - chadwicks 477 yarn or semperfli substitute.

Your video is so pleasant and relaxing to view and your Killer Kabari is such a beautiful fly!
Thank you.
Nice video man. Thank you...The music is a nice touch.
Thank you for the comment and subscribing Holly, I enjoyed watching your videos on the Middle Earth Tenkara

Excelente vídeo yo practico Tenkara en México y voy a atar ese patrón Muchas Gracias por la información
Es un placer - estoy seguro de que tendrás éxito con eso :)

どういたしまして :)
So this will be a sink sakasa kebari, am I right? Since you use wire to wrap the shank.
Hi JJ - All Sakasa Kebari are designed to be sub surface. They're designed so the feathers react in the water. When you manipulate the kebari correctly it should induce a take. This has a wire wrap simply to make it sink slightly faster. Sakasa means reverse hackle, it can pulse really nicely in the water. Other kebari can use a feather tied similar to western fly fishing, that would help to keep it on the surface and you'd fish it the same as a dry fly... I hope that helps...
@@Tenkarastuff Ｉsee... I think wrong that Sakasa Kebari is floating type...Thank you very much!
Lovely work in this series. Are mbar flies ever fished dry? I expect like conventional mergers?
Thank you for the comment - TERRYBIGGENDEN - As a rule of thumb, Sakasa Kebari (reverse hackle) would be used as a subsurface fly. There are many patterns you could use as an emerger. Plus, why not use your conventional emerger too :) I've used Klinkhammers to great effect with a tenkara rod... Once you have gotten use to manipulating a Sakasa Kebari I feel you'll not be thinking about many other flies though!
Thanks for that helpful reply. I have to admit that I fish flies in the conventional way. and want to tie and try kebab flies here in eastern Australia.I feel they might work well in the rather difficult waters I fish in. I love their simplicity and appearance as well-works of art. Maybe one day tanker as well. :-)
Please put a printable list of materials in the description for copying; thank you
