- Watch Kelly tie a new Mayfly Nymph that he recently came up with, and which is primarily made from Hare's Ear and Hungarian Partridge Feathers. This is the third and final video in our Nymph Category for our Kill-The-Corona Fly Tying Contest. Just like the Streamer Category there are no rules with this one, so everything is fair game. However, we are encouraging people to submit original patterns and to tie a little outside their comfort zone so be sure to use your imagination. Just as in the previous category, each person is allowed one nymph pattern to submit and we must receive your fly by May 5th. The winner will receive a $250 gift certificate to the shop and have a chance at the grand prize (Either a Sage Payload or Maverick Fly Rod or a Renzetti Presentation Vise of your choice) Please send your fly to:

I got so many good lessons for my tying from this video and now i enjoy not sticking to a recipe that in turn brings out my creativity. Wish i could share on youtube my version of the same fly Kelly tied here.
Such an awesome use of 2 materials. Love the split back effect with partridge and the lighter colored underbelly with the hares mask. But overall is just so fishy. Masterpiece!
Fantastic tie! These videos are just insane. Every video is a living legend dropping knowledge from start to finish. People used to have to spend a lot of time and money to get the information you give us for free. Thanks so much for what you do!
Dave Schmezer- Just watched this 'no-name' nymph video. Enjoyed it, particularly like that explain some technical basics the 'hows & whys' of things as you do them. Certainly a better learning experience that helps embed the techniques for use in tying other flies. Not certain if you are notified when someone comments. I hope you do because I was glad to notice you using a 'staging block'...to hold prepared feathers.....the thing made of flamed wood with the slotted white foam. I like you to look on the underside of that and note the name in silver ink! Looking forward to viewing more of your videos! Take care!
I’m loving this series of videos! How about some emergers?
Nice fly. The feather your using for the back and wing case can be prepared with artist fixative. Adds to durability and no need for UV.
Nice material for isonychia I'll give it a go. Really want to try that file feather gill.
I am really enjoying these creative tying videos. So many ideas to apply in my future fly patterns. Thanks for sharing your methods and creativity with us. 👍🏼
Love the skunk effect that feather makes. Great idea and thanks for sharing. Also, when thinking about the next round, don’t forget about the soft hackles. Lots of ideas and creativity with those.
Hi from Rolla MO 🎣🤠 Dave Hughes
I'm very empressed with you on this fly. I'm going to try to get it right 👍👍. I bought a grouse pelt and hair's
Mask so here we go 🤠.
Thanks for your time and knowledge hope all is well with you and your's Dave Hughes 🎣🤠
Thank You for taking the time creating all these informative videos. Was wondering if one of those drawers behind you has some pearsalls, maybe some spider patters?
Amazing video's you make, l just love watching them. I will try and make your fly.and hope it looks like yours 🇬🇧 UK.
I love this fly, but can't help but think that the fish will see this bug from below....and will never see that sweet wing case....
Nice!
With that light colored line it would be a good look for an isonychia nymph.
Could you substitute CDC for Philo? Thanks and keep posting your great teaching videos!
Great looking fly almost looks like a isonychia with that stripe
Thank you for sharing. How does this fly fish? How do you get it to sink into the feeding zone?
That's the bomb! It looks Awesome!
Kelly, maybe you could auction off the flies that were submitted and give the money to first responders or Trout Unlimited. Just an idea.

wife: he's probably thinking about other women
husband: why are partridge skins so expensive?
Great tying, it’s a Beatis nymph family pattern 🤔
Oliver Edwards master few ties on this same platform, one of the patterns he ties is I believe from from the late 1800 using the same original recipe, witch it’s only tie with a 3 fibers of a faisan tail and cooper wire, search for nymph faisan tail by Tom Sawyer's.
Awesome job guys, keep doing what you doing and be safe👌
Thank you from NJ
Looks like an Andy Burke nymph 20 years back
where's the bead?
That’s what so fun with artistic fly tying. There’s no dang rules! The sky’s the limit.
Btw...sent my streamer with nymph today. Hope I’m not too late on the streamer. But if I am, go fish it.😎 Thanks again for some tying incentives. This keeps my interest up with no trips planned to tie for. Although I do have friends fly orders to fill too.✌🏻
Hi Kelly. Great idea about the competition during this time. keep up the great work. I think a streamer competition would be fun. bucktails, rangeley, originals.
Really a cool looking nymph there Kelly. I was just wondering if you could use grouse. Because I’ve got one with almost the same markings. Great videos you are doing. Thanks for sharing with us all. Glad you and you family are doing well. Best Regards from West Virginia, Ken
Just an idea. You could make that an all partridge fly by using the fluff as dubbing. Really like the look of that one though.
You know what those philoplumes are really good for????
With fingers like that who needs a dubbing pick tool
Innovative and another well done. thank you for the share Mr. Galloup! big thumbs up.
that is a cool fly.. i use those stirps feathers too.. for a fly of my own design J
Gorgeous
Class tye
Grate looking fly sir thank you for your time and im like the rest plz keep up with this stuff its nice to see what can be done with some free time and stuff you hate to waist
one of the most instructive fly-tying videos ever...and what insight into the creative process!
With that white stripe it would be a good isonychia nymph
Wicked nymph! Love all your videos
Super sexy fly. Well done kelly
Crustacean Patterns !!!!
That is sick 👌
Nice fly qhat was thr thread u used ?
That was the Semperfli 6/0 Nano Silk in the Copper color. We don't have it up on our website yet but we do have it in the shop if you need some!
@@TheSlideinn im in New Zealand thank u 🙏
Something about judging a successful streamer fly invention.
Kelly, was just looking at Jonathan Farmer making one of the steelhead flies today. And how he presented the underwater streamer fly in his swim tank did make me think about competitions as far as streamer fly tying goes. It would be interesting to see what the different kinds of actions of fly underneath the water that anglers are coming up with. In terms of how they create their flies. Are many of the entries to the streamer fly competition similar in their underwater action? Or are different anglers going after different kinds of an end result. As far as how the fly swims in the water is concerned. Looking at how Jonathan Farmer presented one of his steelhead flies as it moved around in his swim tank under water. Made me realize that one is dealing with far more than a bunch of materials put together, and tied on to a stainless steel shank. And done in such a way that it looked 'neat and presentable' inside of the compartments of different flies and lures on a shelf in the tackle shop. Clearly, there was a lot more going on than that. It would be nice to look at some of the entries for the streamer fly competition from that point of view. I mean, terrestrial flies as you rightly pointed out are important. Because at various points in the trout season, the fish will turn to terrestrials in the absence of anything else to feed on. The autumn time is different to the spring time, as far as density of biomass in the current goes.
In other words, the terrestrial fly and the nymph fly patterns. They sort of create the 'book ends' in terms of the angler and the trout. On the one hand, in spring time and plentiful times of the year, one needs to get one's fly into that stream underwater, where the trout may be focused on the sheer amount of bugs and aquatic life there is to chose from. In fact, there may be so much food in the current at certain times, that trout even become choice oriented (like consumers wheeling trollies around in supermarkets). They will chose one brand over another. Whether it is toilet paper, hand soap or detergent. And the more and more choice that seems to arrive on the shelves. The longer and larger that those shelves seem to get in supermarkets, the more and more selective that we can become as consumers. In contrast, the terrestrial time is the opposite. The other book end to the life of being a brown trout. At that stage, any colour as long as it is black seems to operate. With the terrestrial pattern on the surface, the trout needs to be confident about the general shape and construction of the dry fly. It needs to look like a 'model T' motor vehicle. It needs to pass the 'kicking the tires' test of the consumer. However, the choices are a lot more constricted.
Between those two bookends of the nymph pattern and the terrestrial pattern however, the streamer is a different beast again. The nymph fly will sink in a certain way. The terrestrial fly will float in a certain way. And both of these flies will 'go with the drift' of the river current. Or the drift of the waves and ripple in the still water situation. The streamer fly is different. There is movement going on always. It is less about the static position of the fly in the drift. It is more about the interaction of hydraulics, and fly tying materials of different properties. And how all of that comes together. Looking at how Jonathan Farmer presented his steelhead fly made with a brass cone head bead. It made me think about that. His video on the Olympic Penninsula Skagit tactics channel shows the number of different instruments that all seem to be working together in the orchestra. It is one thing to visually inspect a streamer fly 'out of water' in the atmosphere. It is quite another thing to see how it operates in flowing hydraulic currents in the water medium. And it is much more vital than in either terrestrial fly patterns or nymph patterns. There is just no getting away from it.
He dresses this underwater steelhead fly. There may be ten to twelve different components. Ten to twelve different materials and items. However, what you will notice is that each of the ten to twelve different materials or items. They all strike a slightly different 'note' or sound in terms of the fly's movement in the current. The analysis of music made by an orchestra would demonstrate it. None of the musical instruments or musical instruments subset groups are perfectly aligned. Rather they all play and accent off of each other. None of them however marches to a single beat. There are different wavelengths going on. As one comes in, another leaves. In terms of making the orchestral sound. Wavelengths are separated from each other. The job of the music conductor (or indeed, the 'garage band'), is to be able to listen to the different components of the music. Divide what one is hearing into building blocks. Be able to separate them in one's brain. And understand how to fit them back together in harmony again. All in real time. The job of the music conductor in the orchestra is difficult to do. This is the analogy that I would use for fly tying and streamer fly design. The conductor is on 'output' mode some of the time. That is sending signals to the musical subsections. Most of the time though, a conductor is on 'input' mode. Trying to process audio information arriving to them. Separate it, understand how it all locks back together again. And send signals back, to create an overall harmonic sound. That is what is going on with Jonathan Farmer in how he makes the steelhead underwater flies.
That is the right kind of analogy to use when looking at streamer flies. That is why it's hard to look at streamers 'out of water' as exercises in fly tying. We have no idea until the orchestra begins to play, whether or not the 'conductor' individual has managed to be successful or not. There is a lot of decision making involved. What is the rabbit fur strip doing overall? How does a dubbing loop material work in relation to that? How do rubber legs components, with tiny particles of metallic flash embedded into it, which reflect light. How does that work into a rhythm or timing, that is slightly behind the rabbit fur and dubbing loop? How does the lurex flash material come in slightly behind the rubber leg material? How can the strands of peacock herl find its own space in between both of those? Farmer has some kind of soft hackle too that he dresses in front. And it operates according to it's own timing. However that timing is not out of synchronization with all of the rest. When you put it all together, and it is moving in the swim tank. That is when you notice how these various decisions and the fly tying sequence comes together. One would not predict that however, from looking merely at the static fly.
the "phylo-fly". nice!
