After fishing midges and terrestrials that I can’t see all summer, I’m looking forward to fishing a big ISO. And this Parachute version looks like it’ll float with a small dropper attached. Thanks Tim.
Hello really like the videos, can I ask you a question what is the name of the head cement bottle you have previously used and where could I purchase one . Many thanks
Are you allowed to share your peccary source? Or shops that carry them? I’ve never seen such slender peccary. The hairs on the patch I have would make excellent spear points not tailing material, & I haven’t seen anything better in the many fly shops visited over the last 40 years. :-(
My source is friend who does an incredible job producing a variety of fly tying materials but he does it on a relatively small scale and has no interest in larger distribution. That said, peccary both natural and synthetic is available. It is true that few brick and mortar shops carry it but it can be ordered online.
Tim, I don’t think you should have posted this video. The peccary material in the quality and colors you showed is wonderful for tailing and bodies. The pattern is beautiful. Your tying technique is exemplary. But advocating a pattern using a material that your followers cannot obtain is cruel. It diminishes your reputation as a teacher and inspiration. I think you owe your followers an apology. Maybe you can recoup somewhat by having your material source post dying instructions for the colors he/she provided you. Bill
I wholeheartedly disagree Bill. There are a number of sources out there for both natural and synthetic peccary, it just takes some looking. Maybe you as a regular follower could contribute the information about how to source and dye the material as I've already taken a good deal of time and effort to produce a detailed video of how it can be incorporated as a tying material.
Tim, I retract my comment. I was so taken by your images of the beautifully dyed peccary material that I didn’t think through the problem. Regular peccary flank hair patches are available from a few on line shops. So use a few fibers for the tail or, since good peccary is precious, use moose body for the tail. Soak a peccary hair fiber in water before tying in and wrapping as the body so it doesn’t crack. Finish fly and let body fiber dry. Then mark body with a Sharpie of the desired color. Finally, coat body with SHHAN or resin. So chase to find the dyed patches given you is not needed. Synthetic peccary can also be used and marked for a body although it doesn't work for a tail. Think a March Brown version of your fly also will be beautiful. Peace, Bill @@tightlinevideo
Just so you know. This is the best fly tying chanel on youtube. Hat of.
Thanks for the Insightful Pattern Tim …
Look forward to putting this on the menu for our NW Michigan Fin - Friends

I need to get some peccary, but it is out at all the shops I frequent.

That's called gloss coat
Need help on two things:
A good bobbin
A good vice
The rest of the stuff is pretty easy to find and/or get creative with stores to buy.
Good job man 😍 is there any opportunity to use another material, like moose hair, oder deer ? Greetings from Germany. Love your channel 😊
