Hey Cheech I’ve been tying these for a while now learnt from this great video.Some things I’ve noticed…once the dark brown and tan strips are tied in trying to cover the underbody with thread using 140 utc what I do is wrap 90 percent then just use a black sharpie to cover the missed spots.To make the fly even more visible I’ve changed the top foam color(the foam strip which holds down the wing) to fluo orange.😊
@@FlyFishFood sounds good imma make one soon there’s a school that has a pond I go to that has huge shell crackers and I know they would tear this lure up lol
Go find them when they spawn. They will be shallow and you can target them with the fly rod then. You will not get as many hookups as followers but its doable.
Grest tie and it looks fantastic.
Awesome looking tie as always.
Stunning fly..greetings to Italy!
Circus music is a hold over from his first job.
I dig the fly. Going to try it on warm water fish too
Question, can you just dub the underbody over the foam instead of the excess thread wraps
this is getting added to the rotation, what are your favorite sizes to tie it in?
4-10
Amazing! I can't wait to put a few of these in my box.
Congratulations!! Excellent pattern!!! Regards from Argentina! Matías
Gracias hermano
nice fly. Im going to tie these for sure!
I have watched this video several times.
I want to learn this tie but afraid to try.
When do you fish this hopper.?

Dang that thing looks awesome,
What is a common Leader/Tippet diameter to cast a big Fly like this?
I think a 2x or 3 x would be just the ticket on a 9-foot leader to start with.
2x for sure.
These are ones I will just buy...
Can u use the skirt of a spinner bait for the legs?
You could.

I just caught 15 tonight on a fat Albert, started with 8 legs, now he has 3....THEY WORK BEAUTIFUL.
Please tell book size when tying.
Hook size
What mm foam
Great tie Cheech
This and the Turk's Tarantula have always been just too much for me. Maybe I'll give this one another shot.
This one is a piece of cake compared to the TT
Hey hey hey
hey i know you.
Hey Cheech! Calling Curtis fat is the pot callling the kettle fat. Dont worry guys. Im fat, too. Just like the fish I catch!
Lake Trout Fishing and Lake trout on fly how too please, please, please!!!!!!
That would require 1,984,963 hours of footage to edit for one take.
Please i really want to know how you do it i have a lake bear home and i really want to do it on ice off
@@gradyprairie9523 ask your local shop. If they are in your area I'm sure someone there has fished for them

I thought this was named after Stacey Abrams
46 minutes ago still quiet
Or you could tie the Tubular hopper and be done 20 minutes ago😜
What? No circus music.
