    Kings River caddis is the answer to my elk hair difficulty. I recently saw your diving caddis pattern and found it to be an easy tie. Thank you for your videos.

      @@normanmanning4872 He went over it but it is based on your price range. I've looked into it very heavily. The Swiss Vise from Mark Petitjean is the best vise on the market. The Regal revolution is also quite nice due to the ease of changing flies. Shop around though, I found the Regal revolution being sold for as high as 1700 CAD and as low as 529 CAD. If you want the best vise on the market the Swiss Vise is what shines. Renzetti and Norvise make good vises as well. It really all depends on your budget and what you want to tie. The only one that can do it all is the Swiss Vise but you pay for that level of quality. It's the vise I'm going to go for, that and a regal revolution. Seems beneficial to have multiple vises.

    This is a great video, you packed an amazing amount of info into this video ! Regarding your Diving Caddis, it looks a lot like the Bird’s Nest. If there was one fly I would add to your selection it would be the Bird’s Nest size 12-14, and yes you are absolutely correct about the woolly bugger !

    I loved that you had a soft hackle on your list. Not many of these types of lists do. Your choice for an adult caddis is also cool, much more fun to tie than an EHC. Since I consider .myself just as much a fly there as an angler, that's an important consideration for me when I develop these lists. I'd go with a Sparrow, rubber legged copper john, leadwing coachman, yellow humphy, and a copper beetle.

    Nice list Peter. Woolly Bugger for sure, consistent big fish catcher, especially during low light. Partridge (or grouse) & Orange with a Hare's ear thorax, sentimental pattern, my best ever brown that made three screaming runs came to net on this in size 12 on my favorite creek. The Usual, fishes well in riffles and can be pulled under and it pops back up top. Ausable Wulff, rough water fly and my second homage fly to Fran Betters. Rosenbauer's Snow Shoe Emerger. A fat and juicy Zug Bug, can't go wrong with peacock. All produced for me shortly after tying then fishing them. So they're my favorite "six pack". Thanks Peter.

    Very well considered list. It’s pretty similar to the first batch of flies I’m tying for donation. If I were tying for myself for my favorite water on the West Branch of the Penobscot in Maine (landlock salmon), a LaFontaine emerging caddis would replace the diving caddis & Gartside’s pheasant wing caddis or Eddie Reif’s Penobscot Caddis for the low floating adult. I would have to somehow add attractors like a gray Wullf & a Royal Wullf for the edges of rough current seams, then there’s the Grey Ghost and …. Oops, sorry, you did say only 6.

    Thank you Peter , I'm a debutant in fly fishing. I watched your video on spey cast and since then , i'm practicing. I tried to catch trout since I got my rod. One month now and nothing yet. Question : can i use those 6 flies with a floating line ?

    • @hooked4lifeca
      @hooked4lifeca  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, most definitely. Streamers can benefit form sinking lines, but they can be fished on a floater.
