    i am only 13 and i know your videos have helped me tie hundreds of flies after school for the past 3 years

    Love the recent competition-style fly tying videos! Please do more of these!

    I am really enjoying this recent series of flies drawn from the competition circuit. Very simple, slender, beautiful ties.

    I like your method of starting wrapping the wire.

    I wrap these with copper wraps and use aa a scud pattern. Very helpful stuff Tim

    I think the Walt’s worm is the epitome of necessity is the mother of all inventions. It was solely created for weight but it is now one of the most consistent flies ever tied.

    Love it, clear explanation, thanks guys for posting this.

    I've found it's easiest to use a bobbin to load up the lead free wire (a cheap one preferably) and take wraps with the bobbin. It makes it much easier to pack in the last wire wraps without any waste because the weight of the bobbin sort of stabilizes the wire.

    Great video (as are all of your videos). Is there an alternative to using the Sulky Sliver Metallic Thread?

  • @erniewalker5050
    @erniewalker5050 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    great video as always. i'm looking for that Jamieson's Shetland Spindrift yard. Also, where do i come across the sulky line of materials?

    • @lincolnparmer9708

    Ha! Loren was a classmate of mine in nursing school! Only found out he fly fished years later!

    Great video as usual. What can we use to replace the opalescent sulky sliver metallic thread?

    • @tightlinevideo
      @tightlinevideo  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +MrSlybin Really thin Flashabou is about as close as you can get.

    I’ve never had much luck with this. Probably need to fish it more

  • @adambooth3858
    @adambooth3858 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I'm not saying there isn't an intrinsic imitative value of this pattern...but I've always wondered if the ace up the sleeve for this fly is that the tier hasn't made a big time investment and therefore as a fisher is more willing to put the fly in harms way at the bottom where the fish are.

    • @tightlinevideo
      @tightlinevideo  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Excellent point Adam and I think you are right on the money. Just like real estate, it's most often location, location, location- getting the fly to where the fish are. For me anyway, the jig style is what really sets the pattern apart because it's less prone to hang-ups.

  • @garretjones3976
    @garretjones3976 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Would Hare-Tron dubbing be similar to what youre using here?

  • @oldsmugglerflyfishing
    @oldsmugglerflyfishing ปีที่แล้ว

    I really like more the second version.

  • @Giveapigapancake577
    @Giveapigapancake577 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just wanted to ask since I’m a new, fairly financially limited fly-tier, is the jighead absolutely necessary for this pattern? Can i use a normal nymph hook for this so as to save money by using what I have? Or will that change the orientation of the jighead or make the presentation undesirable to trout?

    • @tightlinevideo
      @tightlinevideo  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Regular hooks and beads are just fine. Or even skip the bead altogether and use wraps of lead free wire beneath the dubbing. Jig hooks, because they ride hook point up tend to get snagged on the bottom less often, but they are indeed more expensive, particularly when paired with a slotted tungsten bead.

  • @marksleeper3752
    @marksleeper3752 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    where did you get the clear antron for dubbing, any info would be great ,kudos on vid Thanks Mark

    • @tightlinevideo
      @tightlinevideo  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is a Wapsi product that I use. Fly-Rite also makes it.

  • @s009nell
    @s009nell ปีที่แล้ว

    Adding goose biots as a tail dress this up quite a bit too.

  • @anthony0803
    @anthony0803 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you think this fly would be just as effective if killer bug yarn was used in place of dubbing?

    • @tightlinevideo
      @tightlinevideo  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +anthony0803 Sure, I use it all the time see: th-cam.com/video/wFhMzbWAao4/w-d-xo.html On larger sizes I do like the dubbing because of the added spikey hairs sticking out that look like legs and suggest motion.

  • @nashkraft4387
    @nashkraft4387 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would it even be worth to tie this on just a regular hook and bead

      ***** Or is a Beadhead Gold-Ribbed Hare's Ear actually a Walt's Worm with the addition of a tail, a wing case and a gold rib?

      @tightlinevideo  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Antron Egg catches the most fish. Pine Squirrel streamer catches the largest.
