Tying the Flashy 'D' in Roach - Pike Fly

D = Deceiver. Well I start as a Deceiver, then switch to a hollow to support the yak and nayat. The tying style is a hybrid of both, as why tie one or the other when it doesn't always achieve what you want. It's a style of tying I apply to not just pike flies. The tutorial is packed with tips based upon my own experience over the years of tying and fishing. So I hope you find it useful.

Another excellent video and I like the vice - Renzetti Master - I use the Renzetti 4000 but I gotta-have the next up! Joking aside - thanks for the tuition, it's most helpful.

Hey Paul
I tried the liquid fusion per your recommendation. I don't have the issues with super glue that you do, so I'm continuing to use that for gluing my wraps due to its quick drying time, but I have found that the liquid fusion is far and away the best head cement on the market, bar none. Thanks for a great tip, and keep the great videos coming. I really enjoy them.

Hola Paul
Muy lindas Moscas
Pero tengo una consulta como hunden estas moscas no quedarían casi flotando con tanto pelo ?
Por que me gustaría probarla con el Dorado. pero necesitaría mas hundimiento.
Saludos cordiales desde Agentina.

If you need weight for a fast current in order to sink them quick. Try adding a medium size tungsten cone behind the head. I do this on flies I need to sink fast. Typically on jig flies, but work well on conventional hooks. Good luck
