- In this tying video, Kelly will walk you through the steps to tie one of his favorite new streamers: The Flatliner. This fly was designed to imitate an injured baitfish trying to right itself, and produces an irresistible action that will get the attention of some of the baddest predators in the ditch.

I just landed my largest brown ever on fly rod with this fly. The (Mini) Flatliner in yellow /olive. Thank you Kelly , you freakin badass ! 🤘🏼🤪🤘🏼
Is it possible to tie this style fly with the keel type hook, similar to the Belly Bumper? (Dont know if thats the correct word), in an up hook design. I like fishing this thing around snaggy crap in Pennsylvania, pretty shallow and bad zones. Snaggy swamp Donkey water. Ole moss back under the log, as Kelly once said.
WOW ! It took me 2hrs. to tie this with only 2 hook points in my fingers =) but it is all worth it .I ran it under some hot water and it looks awesome. Thanks Kelly and for the tip on how to fish it . IT'S WINTER IN ALBERTA now but cannot wait til spring.
21:14 "... gonna have to get rid of that kid." Haha!!!! Love the on-going Galloup-Brammer innovation feud, it's like Mr. Miyagi vs. Sensei. Thanks Kelly love the videos, keep em coming!
At least Kelly doesn't use 200 hash tags for everything he posts! I love these videos as well are very easy to follow!
I’m loving the new series of videos Kelly. I own most of your tying videos, including a couple of VHS antiques. They are great, but do not compare to these new ones. So much information that has improved my tying all around, not just streamers. My dries, wets, and nymphs are all improved because of your pointers. Thanks for taking the time to share your hard-earned knowledge.
Thanks Romeo and glad you are enjoying the vids
Got a juvenile smallie on the first cast today. It is a cool fly
As always, thank you for posting.
Kelly, it must be cold up there this time of year, that's a good thing we get more videos. Nice fly keep em coming.
Been pretty cold up here Johnny, so we are definitely shooting a lot more. The goal is to create a stock pile so we can roll out a bunch well into the summer
Happy New Year, always welcome in Missouri.
Hey Kelly, been fishing these lately in NZ on my local. The fly rocks to fish. I been tying them with the Ahrex TP650 on the front. With the bent front hook these been diving and dying even more F?#@d up. Love this fly!
This fly has bumped the Nancy from my go to on the river up north.
First time I noticed a reply from you.....so,,What's "The Nancy?" OP, Kansas
@@ricrubeo1265 its Kelly's Nancy P. I've lost count how many fish that has caught on the Mo.
@@varnersstreamers We are rolling out the Nancy this Friday!
@@TheSlideinn yes sir! Lookin forward to this one.
Love your vids man, can't wait to watch this!! P.S. You don't talk too much, I like the dialog.
I lick my fingers before I press the eyes together, it gives enough of a bond breaker so the eyes don't adhere to me.
Love your videos Kelly. A Close Up of finished fly with a keyed over recipe would be extremely advantagious for the viewer. No notes and multiple viewings necessary.
Alan-
We will look into it. It should be easy for a nymph or dry, but there might not be enough space for all the materials needed on an articulated streamer
Happy New Year Kelly!!!
why do you tie the olive marabou on the side?Also my polar chenille is roughly 2" long ,should I trim it before I do my wraps?PS. By the way YOU inspire me to tie much better ,you are a fantastic teacher and mentor. Thank you Kelly.I enjoy watching you tie flies. ALSO, you don't babble much=). NOW I understand why the olive on the side.I don't have yellow material but I do have tan.
looks pretty easy :-) Gunnar , like U has some great ideas for tying . Can't believe you have never used the hair clips , No dollar store in Camron :-(
just dumb, cant believe never thought of it.
This has quickly become my favorite channel on TH-cam! What weight rod and line do you prefer to throw this with?
Mark, its really light but the hard pulls need a pretty fast stick, I use a 7 Bank Robber mostly. Thanks for watching. KG
Stop licking the feathers, Kelly!
Don't know if you are doing the question and answer thing still, but if you are, Id love to hear your opinion on clothing for fishing. I hear a lot of differing opinions for dark colors, light colors, etc. I do a lot of fishing on Blue Lines but also do a lot on tail waters and freestone rivers, and it seems like every time I go out or talk to somebody in the shop (I work at a fly shop in Knoxville) they are saying something different about this.
I haven’t been fly fishing for trout long, but I think it doesn’t matter because if you move, the trout will see you. I fish a lot in the little river drainage in Townsend. The trout in those creeks are very spooky, so I mainly try to keep low.
Yea, youre right, the kids pretty good.
I really enjoy watching and learning new things when you demonstrate new patterns and old
I have a question, have you every tied your patterns on tubes and compared them to the same pattern on hooks. Thanks again.
Have you or has anyone tried tying this pattern on a 45 degree angle? If so has anyone had any success or seen some interesting swim characteristics? I really like horizontally tied patterns like this for those 'dying minnow' looks... tying it on a 45 might give it more wobble, no?
I am curious about this too. I was surprised that this fly didn’t have a bend in the front hook. It sounds like you fish it much like the Swimmy Jimmy.
How would I do this without the dubbing like could I substitute it with something?
Oh oh licking the marabou! Where’s your sponge cup? 🤪
Old habits...tough to break
Is it bad for you, or does it mess up the fly? I just want to know so I don’t get some sort of diesease.
@@zeroedinwithzeke4059 It won't mess up the fly, and it is easier to work with when damp; however....Definitely NOT good for you, so the sponge would be a wise choice
Ok. Thanks for the information.
Would til Tiemco 8089 be good for this one??
Should be fine with the 8089, it is a bit more of a stinger style hook so I would just adjust how far back you tie in your articulation so it doesn't kink your tail section down.
What thread bobbin would you suggest for someone new to fly tying. Nice fly by the way!
Coy-
We like the standard Ruby Tip from Renzetti for nymphs and dries. If you are looking for a good bobbin for streamers, then I would consider the magnum Rite Bobbin
Thanks for the reply. Just ordered one for dry flies.
Can you use tip leader too tie The back of the Hook too first hook instead of wire 🤔🤔
You mean like mono-filament? That wouldn't be strong enough or abrasion resistant. One fish tooth touches it and it's toast.
Awesome fly! Super fun to fish as you mentioned. I had a lot of success with it on it a lake in Patagonia where I caught 2-27" browns and a handful of others in the 20-24" range on it in the same day when I figured out the browns were keying in on juvenile rainbows. Cast out 60-80 feet, let the sinking line sink for a few seconds, start ripping on it, and watch big browns come up off the bottom and absolutely crush it in the crystal clear water. Unfortunately I only had one and the articulation wire gave out after about a dozen or so browns over 20". Most of the fish in this video were caught on this fly: th-cam.com/video/WtVLI9Oyu2c/w-d-xo.html #whitefishlivesmatter
It's taken to long to do this
Or Godzilla vs. Mothra 😆
So the swimmy Jimmy is a rip off of this fly 😆
Too Funny.....Where did you get that "Whitefish lives Matter" sticker??!!
From Whitefish Ed, hes a legend on the Henrys Fork. KG
