These flies are perfect . I been tying like this for awhile and I’ve got down to using 3 pheasant tail fiber per fly and Xsmall wire and the sink rates are crazy . Easily the most underrated channel on fly tying !
Thanks for another helpful video Vladimir...really enjoy the way you clearly describe the step-by-step tying of your flies, and the underlying reasons for each precise step...my own flies are becoming much more consistent, slimmer and productive ( as they give me more confidence when fishing, even on new, unfamiliar rivers for wild brown trout)...big thanks for your 'No pressure -Up' technique
Thank you so much. Glad my videos are having good impact on your work. But, as you noticed... Confidence is a big factor... Without it we wouldn't be able to fish well 😀🍺
Thanks so much.. Do you guys order over aliexpress? If you do i am sure its possible. Just long wait for sure. Plus, one of the viewers said Hends has good dubbing. So no problem for dubbing 🍺🍺😀
Thanks Vladimir, "The best fly-tying teacher on U tube". Will have to order some Royal Sissi ice dub.Keep up the great videos which are much appreciated down-under in NZ.
Thank you so much for your kind words my friend. Its good dubbing, someone in the comments mentioned Hends being good too. So check that out as well. Cheers 🍺🍺😀
Thank you so much for such a nice comment and for being regular here. It really means a lot to hear such things. Any critique would be appreciated as well. 🙏🙏🍺
Love your teaching technique. You explain everything very well and show us how to use the techniques. And that fly box is a work of art. Mine look like a paint-by-numbers done by a 5 year-old. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks so much. You will get there. Just do step by step. Tie one pattern until you get it to be amazing... Then move on to another... After few patterns you will improve technique and will be able to improvise and have more fun i guess 😀😀
The Frenchie is one of my best producing flies in Montana. I’m not crazy about the Hareline UV Ice Dub for the hot spot as it’s too coarse, so I ended up with a finer dubbing from Hends. I’ve also had good luck tying this fly using Hareline’s Pheasant Tail Ice Dub for the body instead of the natural fibers. It seems particularly effective on Sunny days. On a different topic, I stopped at Slide Inn today. Kelly was unfamiliar with your channel, but then scanned your videos and was complimentary. One of the younger guys at his shop knew your work well. He mentioned your channel when discussing meticulously tied Perdigon flies. This is my second trip to Montana this month. The camp is about 700 miles from my house, so it’s a long drive.
Thanks for the mention. Kelly's channel is one of my favourite. Seems like very practical guy. I haven't tried hends dubbing. Thanks for recommendation because what i use is not so easily available in US i guess. Cheers 😀🍺
Give away box is looking great Got my fingers crossed.Great video Valdimre.Great techniques.Will be helpfull to a lot of people.Great job.And a good looking fly this week.
Great teaching video. One of my favorite flies. So happy to see you starting to use rotary function of vise. So many tips using rotary that don’t get covered on most tying videos. For example, when palmaring a hackle, you have to keep the hackle from twisting from the rotation.
Lovely little fly. Thanks for the pinching tips-I use the pull-up method a lot ow since your first demonstrated it. By the way, your camera is fabulous! :-)
@@TERRYBIGGENDEN i used 24mm and 50mm lenses 50mm is dedicated macro hence lot of details. 24mm is able to focus real close... However i am using crop sensor, aps-c, Sony a6400.... So only camera is pricey... Both lenses were less than 100usd...but i love manual vintage lenses so its win win for me... Only when shooting my kid i use new sigma lenses..
@@Oholisfliesandfishing Thanks. Well. they are doing a beautiful job. We all appreciate your efforts-I know it must be time consuming fiddly. I am going back over your older presentations to see them a couple of years after I have gained more experience. Best wishes, :-)
@@TERRYBIGGENDEN when i see some of my older videos i often scream in my head. 🤣🤣🤣 So many things i have learnt over the years. But i will keep those videos as a testimony to my journey. All the best Vladimir
Great fly, I enjoy your attention to being precise with applying your materials to make the flies look great. Are you giving away flies or are you selling them?
I am pretty confident it would catch well if its properly presented. However.... I almost never fish lakes.... I did twice during competitions thats all.... I am a river guy 😀
This is chinese hook. Not a branded one. Its the same as Dohiku jig i used before.... And quality is just as good. If i need to choose favourite brand i would always go for TMC, Gamakatsu... They are consistent...
@@Oholisfliesandfishing I know you did, I thought you might link to where you purchased it, thanks. I found it on Ali Express any issue buying from them? Thanks
@@scottnock5241 no issues. I dont link products because i buy all here in china. I live here. So its not possible for people outside of china to use same website
I truly enjoy the manner in which you clearly describe the step by step development of your flies, and the reasons for each precise step!
Thank you so much for it. Glad to hear such feedback. 🍺🍺

I usually go with more PT barbs. Except for smaller flies. Then i will go with less. Cheers

I tied a lot of Frenchies, but I learned a few new things in your video. Thanks Vladimir😃
Glad to hear that. Thats all my videos are about. Hopefully helping others a bit. Tight lines 😀🎣🎣

Fantastic video great detail on the pinch and loop method beginners and intermediate tiers will love you for that 👍
Thank you so much. Hope it will help them. 🙏🙏
Great video! Ive been tying lots of frenchies after I watched your "only 2 flies" video.
Glad to hear that. I hope u fished them too.... 😀😀🍺
Beautifully tied Frenchie. Always works well for me. Thanks for sharing!
Crikey Vladimir your flies are amazing and your explanations so very helpful. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Glad i could help. Thanks for going through my videos. Cheers 🍺😀
They all look great and should fish well, especially for anyone fishing in a tight line style to the nymphs, and directly in contact with the bottom.
Thanks so much. Cheers 😃😃
Great video for the beginners and seasoned tyers as well. You always explain everything very well which helps a lot of tyers. Thanks Vlada
Thank you my friend. I will focus more on beginners in future few videos. 🙏🍺
Great video ! Beautiful assortment of flies! So well done bud!
Thanks so much mate. Cheers. 🍺🍺😀

Lovely little fly. Thanks for the pinching tips-I use the pull-up method a lot ow since your first demonstrated it. By the way, your camera is fabulous! :-)
Thank you so much. So having wider plus close up view makes a difference?
@@Oholisfliesandfishing Is that it? Whatever it is, it's' amazingly] sharp Twenty years ago such an image wold not have been possible I think. :-)

Excellent - thank you.
Thanks a lot. 🍺🍺😀
Great fly, I enjoy your attention to being precise with applying your materials to make the flies look great. Are you giving away flies or are you selling them?
Thank you very much. The box from the video will be for the giveaway. I will explain about it on one of the future videos.
Cheers
🍺🍺
Thanks again. Maybe a question for you on that good looking Frenchie... Any experience using that fly on stillwater/lakes? thanks
I am pretty confident it would catch well if its properly presented. However.... I almost never fish lakes.... I did twice during competitions thats all.... I am a river guy 😀
What hooks do you tie on
This is chinese hook. Not a branded one. Its the same as Dohiku jig i used before.... And quality is just as good.
If i need to choose favourite brand i would always go for TMC, Gamakatsu... They are consistent...
Looks amazing! What type of box is that?
Slim nymph box. Very common everywhere 🍺
Great video!! Can you share that brand of dubbing please, I have the same issue with ice dub it’s too thick.. thanks
Thanks so much. Its royal sissy. I showed the bag when i introduced the materials 🍺🍺
