I just got into fly tying but I have very big, ambitious ideas. One of these is an articulated deer hair topwater snake. This video will be tremendously helpful when I eventually attempt it. Thanks for the video!
What a fantastic review. Thank you so much for the kind words. I make these videos to teach. Thank you for letting me know that the effort is worthwhile.
I'm so glad you've done these video's. I've only been tyeing for a couple years. But I've fallen in love with deer hair flys. Ricky told me you where the man for deer hair. So I've been watching your videos. I just tryed what you suggested? All one color. I caint wait to dive in further. Thank you for your instructions
Deer hair pooper are really great. The action of the fish is incredible. I have several different one's. Love it when I see the fish pop out the water to take that pattern
RF...There is no better time to be on the water when the bass are crashing top water flies. The top water take can be heart stopping. I probably have an additional six months before I get to experience that again. Tight lines!!!
Heya mate, awesome video, thanks for sharing! Is it bucktail your using? Seems like it! The reason why I am asking is because of floating properties, cause this doesn't look like deer hair. Thanks in advance and tight lines!
I am using whitetail deer belly hair. Bucktail does not work well for a bug body. I only use it for tailing material on my poppers. I try to purchase my belly hair from Natures Spirit. It is some of the best quality available. Another great source for quality deer hair is from Pat Cohem. His site is rusuperfly.com. Hope this helps. Cheers
So you don't have to have your thread at the base of the stack to put in another stack? Looks like you had it advanced about 1/4 inch before putting in a new stack
The reason for advancing your thread is to give yourself room to attach the next clump of hair. I usually advance my thread about 6 - 8 wraps. Hope this helps.
Heath..In a pinch I have used my hands as a stacker. I prefer using the stacker shown in the video. That being said, the bass can care less if all the tips align properly. Do the best with what you have on hand. Good luck!!!

Clear as mud. Thanks for the great lesson. Deer hair is something I struggle with.
Thank you for the kind remark. Let me know if I can assist you with your deer hair adventures.

Shawn West thanks a lot for the information mate, Keep it up and tight lines.
What thread are you using? You seem to put a fair amount of tension on it I would usually snap the thread
Corey...I am using UTC GSP 100. You can use a higher strand count, but I do not think it is needed.

Is that the R Evolution hair stacker by Renzetti?
Benjamin...I am using the Griffin large hair stacker.
what can in use instead of a deer hair stacker?
Heath..In a pinch I have used my hands as a stacker. I prefer using the stacker shown in the video. That being said, the bass can care less if all the tips align properly. Do the best with what you have on hand. Good luck!!!
What size hook are you using in this video?
ZZ...I am using a 3/0 Owner 5115-131 worm hook.
