April great to have more woman in the sport. way to go . there's a lot of men who are just pigs. but true fly fisherman apriciate your true fly tying talents. thanks for sharing your vidios with us. happy tying and fish on. god bless
i just purchased my first rotary vice. some say you don't need all that fancy schmancy stuff. old timers i swear!!! i have an old clunker clamp style that i used for a while. you have to loosen too much to turn your fly and risk your hook falling out. i can see all around it now and do other things i couldn't do before. also, when you space your feathers like that and say it looks life like in the water really made me think about tying my own like that. thanks alot! i've watched some of your other videos too! very nice fish you landed. wish i could live at the ocean!!!!
Great tying! God this girl must wonder if all fishermen are pervs, give her a break and focus on the fact she's a fine tier and angler, just because she is blessed with stunning looks doesn't mean her talents are of secondry importance.
Nicely done...at a pace where each step is easily comprehended. Use of the f/nail clippers is both ergonomic and economic at the same time. Ya, I'd fish that on the Bulkley in a heartbeat. Cheers, KD Smithers, BC
April is truly a work of art to watch both fishing and tying. To look at her is perfection.To watch her cast a fly line is perfection. Truly any mans perfect partner. Great job April keep up the good work .
Try it. I took a course with her and thought the same thing at first. I don't cut everything with it, but it does a great job cutting the feathers close to the tube.
Its almost like her beauty is a detriment. This woman is a phenomenal fly fisherman. Yet we all (including me) struggle to see past that. She's that beautiful.
It's an intruder fly, krystal flash, craft fur / arctic fox fur, rhea (which she used) or maribou ( however cold water destroys maribou) can use ostrich as well if you are in a pinch.
Am I the only one who didn't notice what she was doing. LOL, PS, April. Were ever you are, please stay healthy. Very best regards to you and your family. God bless and good luck fishing.
I use $100.00 pair of scissors. April uses 0.59 cent nail clippers. Think about that ... your teaching skills are very precious. Best regards and God bless.
Totally confused! I am a fly fishing newbie. Just bought a fly rod and I have been practicing my fly casts in a field. Now I am trying to learn about tippets, leaders and flies. I stumbled on this video looking at types of flies to use. Forgive my ignorance, but..... I see fathers, I see fluffy stuff, I see sewing thread but I see no HOOK. How do you catch a steelhead if there is no hook? It looks like the fly is attached to some sort of steel rod
Tube fly. The tube is hollow. You put your tippet through it and then attach a hook at the back. There is a place in the back of the tube that is bigger in diameter and your "stinger" hook-eye sits inside there. A style of fly used so you can size hooks differently and also get more life out of your fly because the hook usually comes away during the fight and the fly is not left to get mangled by the fish.
Hi Rick! April is using a Tiemco Ceramik Bobbin: www.adh-fishing.com/fly-tying/fly-tying-tools/bobbin-holders/tiemco-straight-heavy-duty-bobbin Tight Lines, AK
Oh please marry me! Lol...ur awesome and there is nothing greater than watching talent like urs... And u love fishing!!! That's extra points...passion for fishing! Awesome! Great video:)... Hope you dont I'm not a creepo...Lol. Its just tremendously impressive:)
so i came here to learn how to tie a fly....not to watch some chick look at a vise. why not zoom in so i can see what the heck she is doing? clearly the point of the video is not to show how to tie a fly...
No lie. Irritates me to no extent. However; this is much better than Darsomething Offshore. Basically nude girl attempting to fly fish for bonefish in the Bahamas. My 6 year old has better loops than she does, but yet it gets high ratings. Completely ridiculous world we live in.
She can tie flies but seems very slow and awkward, not fluent, Must admit Hard to beat Davie McPhail he's like the school teacher you wish you had, Fair Play April, maybe try talking people through your tying and keep them interested, nice to know the tying methods, techniques, materials and most important how best time to fish the fly and most productive time of year to use it.
Good thing i just scanned thru this vid...why no talking?? No explaining why shes doing what shes doin?? Useless vid, yeah great a hottie tying a fly, but if she isnt speaking other than being sorta short with the people around this demo. Like i said good thing i watched really only 4 mins...did she explain anything in the rest of it?
i know this is older vid so dont know if you will see it but if you do im wondering why tie on a tube over tying right to the hook ive never really seen anyone using tube flies before
Nice work April...& the use of a nail-clipper is a neat trick lol.. I wonder if she fishes her flies as well ? I've only ever seen two vids of lady fly-tyers . I like the expression of total concentration on her face..she looks so happy tying .
April great to have more woman in the sport. way to go . there's a lot of men who are just pigs. but true fly fisherman apriciate your true fly tying talents. thanks for sharing your vidios with us. happy tying and fish on. god bless
Indeed, a sparse yet effective steelhead intruder fly in their favorite colors too ( blue / pink ).

One of the best fly tying vids......very easy on the eye!
Great tying!

This is the first fly fishing video I watched where I didn't spend the majority of time wathcing the fly being tied. Just wow, completely mesmerized.
i could watch april vokey tie flies all day!
thelurewasher you would need to watch all day because she friggin takes all day.

That's the coolest fly I've ever seen very cool and intricate. I love the colors :)
Congrats April. First time I have seen a girl making a fly. Nice lure!

Jsem nevěděl,že tak pěkný ženy dělají takové věci! Šikovná!!!
Next time can I see the finished product, pleeeeeeeaaaaassse?
you can see she puts a lot of focus into her work
Love the looks of this fly. Would love to see a material list of the ribbons and feathers used to make this fly.
Jeff
It's an intruder fly, krystal flash, craft fur / arctic fox fur, rhea (which she used) or maribou ( however cold water destroys maribou) can use ostrich as well if you are in a pinch.
What flies did she tie, missed that part
April, can you or someone else please tell me what it is about blues, purples and pinks that attract salmon and steelhead so much??
Am I the only one who didn't notice what she was doing. LOL, PS, April. Were ever you are, please stay healthy. Very best regards to you and your family. God bless and good luck fishing.
She takes the time to do it right.and that's no bad thing.
I just bounced around the video but I never saw her put this tube fly to a hook. I guess I missed it.
do you have any new tube fly videos april
best reguards steve
Nice job on a great fly
I was to busy watching her lol
Милая вязальщица, изящная, просто красавица! И приманка тоже - класс! 👍😘

Are you planning to do any demo's in England? I know for sure you would have a better audience than Germany.

Mrs.Vokey,beautiful tying...i have to but you one of mine!

Is this supposed to represent a fingerling trout? rainbow?

Hi! A trailer hook is later just looped in. Best regards, AK for adh-fishing

Boss technique April. Looks eeeeeasy to cast too.
Lol, it's a tube fly. The leader goes through the tube, and the hook goes on the end of the leader behind the fly.

The only thing that would make this video better
Is if i didnt watch it ...
:)
so i came here to learn how to tie a fly....not to watch some chick look at a vise. why not zoom in so i can see what the heck she is doing? clearly the point of the video is not to show how to tie a fly...

beautiful girl!;)
You sure are a pretty lady.
intense intro for a fly tying demo
Those eyebrows need help .....$ you got it girl .
What exactly was she making again. I couldn't take me eyes off her lips.
Like me
I wished more women fly fish the only people that fly fish in my town are old man and 10 young man
She can tie flies but seems very slow and awkward, not fluent, Must admit Hard to beat Davie McPhail he's like the school teacher you wish you had, Fair Play April, maybe try talking people through your tying and keep them interested, nice to know the tying methods, techniques, materials and most important how best time to fish the fly and most productive time of year to use it.
April.....Will you marry me ? :D
Will you marry me? Lol
I can't keep my eyes off her....adios.

shes a goddess if there ever was one !
Good thing i just scanned thru this vid...why no talking?? No explaining why shes doing what shes doin?? Useless vid, yeah great a hottie tying a fly, but if she isnt speaking other than being sorta short with the people around this demo. Like i said good thing i watched really only 4 mins...did she explain anything in the rest of it?
I think she is one of the most beautiful women in the world.
Not a place for flirt
I know this video has some years on it but very nice and this is the first female fly tier that I have seen .
This lady is a top top fly tyer👍
I remember when Dan bailies fly shop used to have 6-8 ppl tying in the front window of the store. I guess chiiinna put an end to that.
i know this is older vid so dont know if you will see it but if you do im wondering why tie on a tube over tying right to the hook ive never really seen anyone using tube flies before
Elpresador are going fishing with her.
The fly is nice but nail cutters for material?? Really? Nail cutters?
Really. Try it the next time you tie an intruder style tube fly.
Congratulations ... really lovely the highly capable flies. Greetings from an old Italian rivers Wolf
Nice work April...& the use of a nail-clipper is a neat trick lol.. I wonder if she fishes her flies as well ? I've only ever seen two vids of lady fly-tyers . I like the expression of total concentration on her face..she looks so happy tying .
What a beautiful fly tyer
i use plastic beads for the head and i super glue them insted of melting , but nice job girl , your very good.
Come to Colorado and fish with me. I will show you the way of the midge and the mayfly, Some of the best tailwater flyfishing in the world.
Nice fly tying April...you are so talented...so pretty...sure would like to find a like lady just like you...you go girl.
She pays so much attention to detail. I don't fish tubes just because of where I fish but this fly looks amazing. Awesome
Nice fly,& the tiers not bad either,never seen any 1 use nail clippers for trimming,if it works don't change.
Not sure if I'm allowed to watch this. My wife might think I'm watching fly fishing porn. Awesome fly though.
You look lost tying this try a real fly pattern like a Irish one lady GABA fly is right lol
