Very nice. Will have to try!! Tight lines🕷️🐜🐛!!!!
It's getting to be the season to tie on terrestrials. 🎣🐟🐟😎
Sally Fields head Cement. 😂Freudian slip 🤦♂️✝️📿🧎
LOL 🐟🐟🎣
3 minutes before a hook was inserted. Bad form.
For sure, Glad it helped. Tight Lines
Been struggling with hoopers (new to tying). Love the peacock herl trick you showed, thanks for that. Never thought to tie in all the legs at once and just move them over! Great tips, thanks so much. I use polypropelene yarn instead of deer hair but profile seems to matter more anyway, and yours looks great. Cant wait to tie some this way. Thanks for the video and love your website! Keep up the good work and appreciate what you do for the sport!
Thanks for the note, once you get in the rhythm tying these you can spin them out fast!
With foam, I find it very helpful to put some superglue down on the top of the hook shaft before I wrap in the foam. BTW orange foam bodies work well too.
Thanks for the comment, I'll need to try that.
little bit different, but great looking flies
Thanks 👍 🐟🐟
YakYak ... tie the fly !
Completely agree 💯👍
I don't just use one layer of foam for my dry flies or hopper patterns ...in my experience this hopper will sink with just one layer of foam... Especially with adding all your other dubbing and material , water will soak into it best to double 2 layers of foam together .... I use thicker foam as well and Elk hair only and they float all day ....
Great point
Thank You for a Grasshopper fly I can tie.
I appreciate it 🎣
Great video I'm in Michigan right now fishing where are you located again.
Hi Mike, I'm in Southeast MI
Great Hopper David. Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it
A little bit of leftover tied in san juan worm mini chenille is good for slowing down foam turning on hook. It can also give one a hot spot if not totally covered.
I like that idea👍👍🐟🐟
Sally fields 🤣🤣
🐟👍😎
I thought it was quick
I tried to go slow for instruction. Tight Lines!
Trim the legs.
Long legs🐟🐟🐟👍
Nice pattern. Fast & easy
Thank you! Cheers!
Really good fly tying tips thanks
I appreciate it!
Nice tie, peacock ice dubbing works great too
I agree. I try to stay away from peacock herl due to breakage.
Thanks 🐟👍
NICE JOB
Thanks 🐟👍
David, you are the man. I enjoy the heck out of your channel and have picked up several good tips. I wish I lived closer to you because you would be a great fishing partner, even if I had to pay you.
Thanks 👍
