Shop Vac Fly Tying Tutorial

This has quickly become one of my favorite small fly patterns when searching for fish. It could imitate a small caddis, a mayfly, or maybe even a midge. It's essentially a Pheasant Tail Nymph with a wing post, but it is unique enough to deserve attention! The wing shuck provides just enough contrast to make this a fish catching machine! I fish it in smaller sizes and in natural colors to fool even the weariest of fish!

I like the use of the Tic-Tac box for dubbing. Good idea !

I have heard nothing but good things about the Shop Vac. Thanks for the video. Very well done.

aren't pheasant tails great nymphs? Tie one w/o a tail on a pupa hook with a short white wing and BAM, it gets its own name.
