@@Makflies , Johan ( met Een " N " ) , I couldn't have said it better . I watch MAk's video's religiously . I'll be tying some of these this evening, here in Sunny Zuid Afrika
Hi Nicole Thank you for the comment,, I am using Sticky Velcro on a wooden Stick, ANd Varnish Seals the knot and make it stronger and Waterproof, Regards Mak
@@Makflies Thanks for the speedy reply. I found an outfit that sells it in the US: Stone River Outfitters. Actually, size 20 is a boat anchor in Colorado. We frequently tie down to size 26 and even size 28 - 30 are not unusual. For example, see Gamakatsu C12-BM Barbless Large Eye Midge Hooks. I had the experience that Tricos in size 24 were refused. I dropped to size 26 and started catching fish. My 87 year old friend ties his midges down to size 32.
Great work, i always enjoy your videos as they are very well made, with clear image and instructions. Greetings from South Africa.
Thank you Johan ,, I really appreciate that, I am glad you are enjoying my Videos, thanks for watching

Nice fly, Mak. I am curious: what are you using for a dubbing brush? Also, why do you varnish the thread at the end before whip finishing? Thanks!
Hi Nicole
Thank you for the comment,, I am using Sticky Velcro on a wooden Stick, ANd Varnish Seals the knot and make it stronger and Waterproof,

Mak

Hi Mak, what species do you like to use this fly for? Trout in mayfly season?
Thank you G Bank,, It's mainly for Tout & Grayling River Fishing , 😊 😊
Thanks for posting. What wax do you use? I suspect tying this down to a size 20 would be effective when midges are keyed on by fish.
Thank you friend, I am using Prepared Wax from Veniard, you must have a good Eyes for size 20 lol,,:)))
