That is funny that the old becomes new again…as a kid learning how to tie in the 70’s when we didn’t have all the wonderful synthetic materials as we do today, rubber bands were often the best body material we had. I still tie them today and everything from bluegills to steelhead still take them. 😊
Wow I never knew this! It seems they’ve been able to stand the test of time then
I live in northern Indiana and bluegill fish a lot I am definitely going to try this rubber band fly only I have to use a smaller rubber band and smaller hook because our gills aren’t that big, great video thanks for sharing and take care
You were talking about how often they take the indicator. Try using a floating fly with a styrofoam body as the indicator, use a heavier leader to it and use tippet material tied with an improved clinch knot to the bend of the hook and attach a wet fly to that. It lets you fish dry and wet at the same time.
I sometimes use a Chernobyl ant as an indicator fly but I just use the same line straight through, I’ll try this next time. Thanks!
Back when golf balls were wrapped in rubber beneath the outer coating, we used to make these and then tie them off the at the head with black thread. They worked awesome in the Colorado Rockies.
Awesome!
So it's rubber. Did you guys coat them back then? The rubber would last in the water but a fish would pull it down?
@@JayLee-od8ob at first we just wrapped them and then finished with thread for a black head, after you catch a few fish it would just unwind so then we started giving them a coat of clear. They still only lasted for three or four maybe five fish so you had a tie a bunch of them if you’re at a good spot.😁😎😎
@@MarkFie-qn4pe thanks for the tip. I'm going to try some sealed and some not sealed. If they only catch 1 fish then that's ok too.
Nicest looking maggot/water bug I've seen in a long time. Very nice instruction on how to tie also.
Thanks mate I appreciate that!
Newt week matching the hatch at a rainbow trout fishery with the discarded floating cigarette butt, cool looking grub rubber bands are a fantastic fly tying resource.
This is where a good waterproof jacket with a tight rod wrist guard to stop water running up your arm is good , never stop fishing in that hard rain it breaks the surface tension and allows stuff that's caught in the film to drop , May on corrib , Storr Lochs and a good number of other lochs I fish , with that kind of showers (as long as it's not in company of thunder and potential lightning ) that's when you get some heavy takes , as the heavy showers knock all the suspended emerging flies and also for the stronger flies it breaks the tension and allows them to also emerge onto the surface , buzzers, mayflies , the hatch of the moment etc but a lot of stuff gets knocked back down, under the water , all those emerging nymphs either have to make their way back to the surface or those part emerged drown and float back to the underside of the surface tension easy picking for the trout , so a fat grub arriving in amongst all that would be very attractive to a greedy trout. ,
Great idea another fly for the box.
I’m going to tie up a bunch of these after how well it worked!
A very clever idea. You could go out and buy some multi-coloured elastic bands to make different types of maggot flies. Pink would make a good maggot fly.
I plan on making some like this at some point, I agree I think pink would be good!
Stone fly nymph, turkey tail with glue wing case, dubbing thorax, hackle legs, quill tail, rubber band abdomen, on a river that’s a bit rocky. Absolutely deadly. Best fly I have in my box. Don’t need any wire, but in really fast or deep water, it’d be a good idea.
I’ll try and give this a go, sounds great! Cheers
@@CJsReelAdventures don’t know where you’re fishing. Just stumbled on your channel, but here in eastern/central Canada, it’s a killer
Great video good footage of the indicator going under which was great to see new sub .
Cheers mate I was glad to see I captured it when watching the footage back. Thanks for the sub!!
Hey Mate The cool thing about making that fly with a rubber band is that you can find many other colors of a rubber band to do that with and you can get more creative with that adding beads and hackle and such its endless what you can do with that ,,,,,I LOve that Thanks for this Video Cheers
For sure, a lot of potential with this fly! Thanks for the comment!
What a great fly you've made, and fishing place really can bring emotions. I wish to catcg trout someday, but this fish not living in closest rivers I have.
Thanks! Trout are fun to catch but to be honest there are lots of harder fighting fish out there!
Great fly...if you use clear latex gloves cut into thin strips then wrap around the hook the result is even better. With a felt tip pen...put 2 very small eye dots up nest the hook eye.. You then have a deadly maggot fly. I have used this fly in both fresh and saltwaer. Well done.
Awesome! Will have to try this. Thanks for the comment 😊
I love simplistic flys , I’ll try yours as well as the one In The video , I like easy fly tying no need for complicated flys when the simple ones work . 👍
Nice idea, what can you fly fish for in the ocean????
I have those costas too and they are my favorite of all four pairs.
I fished a similar fly decades ago. The only difference was that mine (my boss's) was a bit of ostrich hurl on the head. We called it the rubber band cadis.
Awesome! Interesting that this idea has been around for a wee while!
I've tied them,they work,but they do not last very long. UV breaksdown the rubber and only after a few weeks and it falls apart,even if they're unused. It's not just a whim,it's many different brands,and even colored bands,they all fall apart. I haven't tried coating them in a UV resin,but it should help. There's also silicone bands,but I haven't tried them.
I’ll try the UV resin next time, I did think this could be a potential issue! Thanks for the comment
Nice little video! Cheers.
Thanks!
Awesome fly you made , love it so simple to make and it catches fish that’s fantastic , I’m going to have to make a few myself now lol , I haven’t done much fly fishing and never used a striker indercater , any chance you could do a video on maybe making one and useing them for beginner and new fly fishoes , awesome video now I,m off to make some little grub flys. 👍
Cheers! I’ll try and remember to include this next time I’m doing an trout video!
I want to visit Scotland for flyfishing and malt whisky esp. Islay.
Definitely a good place for both of those!
Added my 2 cents from the states that looks just like a fat bee moth good job
This fly seems to imitate a few different things across the world according to some comments on this video! Thanks for the comment 😊
Nice share ❤
Cheers!!
Hi Craig, I’ve just found your channel and duly subscribed… the grub fly looks great, don’t tell anyone but I’ve copied it and will give it a go tomorrow at Testwood in the south of England, thanks for a great video, I wish I knew your secret for getting such high viewer numbers, I would love to grow my own channel but can’t seem to get the views… any prompt to help an expat would be greatly appreciated.
Tight lines
Thanks mate! Honestly I wish I knew! The TH-cam algorithm is a tricky one, this video had performed significantly better than all of my other videos, my more recent videos are struggling :/ if I had to guess why this one has done well, I’d say that the topic of making a fly out of a rubber band is fairly unusual, the length of the video isn’t too long, the camera on the indicator was a good touch, plus some good old luck! Hope your views pick up, just a matter of time until the algorithm finds something it likes. Tight lines!
Also forgot to mention, I think the thumbnail helped too!
Liked and subscribed 👍🏴
Thanks, appreciate it!
Paint a red head onto it it works even better
I’ll try this next time, thanks!
Holy moly how did it suddenly start pouring like that within 3 seconds?
Scotland, what more can I say 😂
What rod & reel & leader setup with indicator please. Nice video too.🧑🌾👍🎣🐟
My rod is a loop evotec 7#, reel is a guideline quadra and leader is 8lb seaguar. Thanks for the comment!
Looks like a wax worm…….Trout kill it!
Yep!
Nice cheap tip! thanks! But if taking the indicator so often, why not using a big floating fly as indicator instead?
Great point, I quite often use a Chernobyl ant as an indicator, but if I can’t be bothered tying up another leader and just want to give the indicator a quick go I just use these indicators. So just laziness really 😂
@@CJsReelAdventures 😅😅😅
Going today to scotland for my holidays. Do you have any recomondations for water and know where I get the permint for fishing?
Depends what you want to fish for really, most rivers have brown trout and there are loads of stocked lochs and ponds too. If you google places for fishing near where you are, it should return a list of known fishing rivers and lochs and where to buy the permits. Let me know where and what you want to catch and I can suggest a few places 😊
@@CJsReelAdventures im really open,but most likely trouts😀
Doing a roudtrip around scotland so I am a little bit everywhere😅
Good stuff!!
Thanks!
Great flies I tie and use these
Seemed to work good for me! I should really tie up some more
I bet Carp & Chub would both munch on that fly too
Yeah I think they would too
Try heat shrink electrical tubing for big streamers *winks*
Thanks I’ll give this a go!
Superb !!!
Cheers!
Hi, I’m planning my first ever trip to Scotland and I’m trying to find out more about the fishing. As well as the fly fishing, are there day ticket venues for course fishing too that aren’t silly money? I was given a fly rod and reel recently fully loaded and ready to go, so I’d like to give that a go too. I’ve looked online but most places I found are too bloody expensive, granted they include being able to take two fish but I’ll be on holiday so I won’t be faffing about cooking trout. Can you recommend a good lake or two or river for cheap day ticket? Or even better .. free😊
Cheers
Hi there, most trout fisheries won’t allow catch and release when using spinning gear hence why it’s more expensive as you need a kill ticket, but fishing the fly will allow you to fish catch and release making it a bit cheaper. There’s some coarse fishing but it’s all pretty poor compared to what I’ve experienced in England. The lakes and rivers in England tend to have a much greater amount of coarse species but in Scotland you could try
forth and Clyde canal for roach, Dace, perch, pike etc - free
Lairds loch for bream, tench, roach, Rudd - £10 a day
Loch Lomond, massive but had a large amount of different species - £5 a day
Orchil coarse fishery, well stocked with carp, roach, Dace, perch, etc - £10 a rod a day
Magiscroft coarse fishery, this is the only one on this list I haven’t fished. 7 different stocked coarse fishing ponds with lots of different species - unsure the price for this one
Most rivers and lochs in Scotland are fished for their trout, salmon and pike as they tend to be the most popular, I’m happy to help with pointing you in the right direction for them too!
Thanks,
CJ
Great technique what IS thé size of your rod and fly Line please ? Thanks
Thanks! This setup is a 10ft 7w. The line is a WF7 - elite rio grand. Hope this helps!
Rubber bands break down pretty quickly, so only tie a few as needed.
This would probably work well with panfish because it looks like a grub worm.
I have no idea about panfish but I think most fish would have a go at it to be honest!
Hi
Nice fly there,👍👍
Are you fishing whit loop opti stillwater fly rod.
Greetings
Cheers! It’s a Loop evotec, great rod!
Hello from California. I am thinking of traveling to NE Scotland for a golf vacation 2024, depending on my aorta procedure and when it is scheduled. Would like to try speycasting and fly fishing, but are the accessible fishing areas private, pay to fish?
Hi there! All migratory fish in Scotland require a permit to fish for, so you’d have to get one if targeting salmon. A good site to check out is FishPal.com
There’s lots of good fishing available on there, however a lot of the good stuff gets booked up well in advance. Different rivers also have different times of the year where the fishing is better, and some places are better fished with spinning gear. If you find a river near where you are staying I’m sure you’ll be able to find some info online about the best way to go about fishing it. Hope this is helpful and hope the procedure goes well! Let me know if you have any questions whatsoever, I’m happy to help 😊
Thank you.
I cant wait until the ice is gone... I'm in Northern Alberta, Canada..
I bet there’s a lot more ice there than there is here just now!
Yes so did i in the early 70s
are you using flourocarbon tippet and a floating sight indicator?
I am, but I bumped up the breaking strain to 11.6lb
nice!
Cheers!
Awesome where can I buy these ?
Most fishing shops around where I am stock flies that look like this, such as angling active in Stirling. Search for maggot fly or grub fly, or try tying it yourself! Easiest fly to tie ever
just watch using rubber bands,they crumble very quickly wet or dry. get some nymph skin and coat with solarez resin
Great idea thanks for that! I’ll try that next time
Instead of trying to cast with your other hand, try casting in the opposite direction and lay the fly down on your backhand stroke.
Cheers! I’ll try this next time
This is the easy way,no drama,no fun. I can cast with right hand and left hand,its not so difficult.
Where are you fishing meaning the name of the water cheers
Hi, this is a private fishing club water, don’t think the loch it’s self has a name - if it does I’m unsure what it’s called!
wait until they discover strips of latex gloves over a colored thread body +/- lead wire for weight
Was this during winter/cold spell
This was the first week of October, it had been pretty mild though if i remember correctly
put a hook on the indicator?
Good idea but for the purpose of getting fish on the maggot fly I didn’t bother. Also didn’t want to change my rig after setting up
I can't tell you how many times I've said "Oh crap" while fishing
Same here 😂
Decent mate 👌, where abouts is this fishery?
Cheers mate, this is one of the lochs at a fishing club I’m in. Lochs are in the trossachs
@@CJsReelAdventures aw magic I fish at a wee place next to loch achray now and again, will need to have a look for this place though
@@CJsReelAdventurescould you let me know what club this is? I’ve swam here. Didn’t realise it was an active club water. I’d love to join.
@HookedOnAngling This is bridge of Allan 76. I’ll ask the secretary to see if we are taking members at the moment. It’s a small club but we’ve got a couple good lochs
unfortunately your video is very quiet when you are tying the maggot.
really nice lookin maggot fly and nice idea :)
Sorry about that. Thanks!
@@CJsReelAdventures not your fault dude, just the way the recording goes sometimes eh
Yeah I’m still learning a lot with every video I do!
@@CJsReelAdventures thats good :)
don't always know unless someone says something :/
really good video I have to say. I will be watching more. I'd like to get into fly fishing and fishing
Yeah definitely, thanks for that. Fishing is great but it can be a steep learning curve, particularly fly fishing. Like most hobbies when you get into it you’ll likely get really into it 😂
日本から見てます。
ありがとう！ 日本のようなクールな場所から視聴者がいるのは素晴らしいことです!
I'd epoxy that and it would probably last really long
Definitely, I’ll be doing this next time 👍
What size hoo were you using
This hook was actually mixed in with various sizes, I believe it was either a 6 or an 8
so a fly that looks like a maggot and a indicator / float..........bit like coarse fishing I guess but it sure does get results by the look of it
Yeah definitely not my preferred method of fly fishing, I normally use dry flies 90% of the time but good to have in the box
Typical retort from a course fisherman with no skill in fly fishing typical plum response.
@@jimflynn466 🤣🤣🤣 well considering I've been fly fishing for over 40 years now and I like to keep it as traditional as possible you couldn't be further from the truth with that comment 👍
It's still fly fishing . On dead clan days it's the best method
A maggot.
Pretty much!
Nothing new, I already made them in latex twenty years ago ♠
It looks f all like a fly.
More of a maggot than a fly
@@CJsReelAdventures - hey, as long as it does the job!
Makes me laugh when guys float fish but say they're fly fishing...
Shut up ya tit
No es tan buena mosca,si le da el sol se acabó,se pudre.
La próxima vez lo barnizaré para evitar que se pudra.
SVP, ce qui manque a votre vidéo magnifique, c'est de ne pas avoir détailler le matériel plus précisément, car j'ai dus improviser, et je ne sais pas si mes montages vont marcher
Honnêtement, vous pouvez utiliser à peu près n'importe quel équipement pour attacher des mouches, mais du fil non toxique, un élastique, un hameçon de n'importe quelle taille adaptée au poisson que vous recherchez avec un espace suffisamment large pour l'élastique et n'importe quel fil vous rapprochera de la mouche que j'ai fabriquée.
If you use an "indicator" to suspend a fly at a certain depth, it is a FLOAT, not an indicator.
Flyfishers tend to say this to make themselves feel special and sophisticated.
A bit of a laugh!
Superbe idée, l'élastique pour faire une mouche noyée, je vais le faire, mais moi, je vais y ajouter une goute de vernis a ongle rouge sang pour la tète, car c'est très attractif le rouge en rivière ou en lac
Cela semble être une bonne idée, j'espère que cela fonctionnera pour vous ! je suis sûr que ce sera le cas
@@CJsReelAdventures MDR MDR J'en ai fais quelques une pour l'ouverture de demain matin et les jours suivant, je vous tiens au courant du résultat pour la pèche en rivière de montagne
More float fishing on a fly rod. Sinful
😂
man, scots are cheap.
Just a fun diy project. What’s wrong with that?
Bigrod999 …. you got issues , there is absolutely no need to for that comment , it shows your a pathetic show pony .
Stop watching when misuse God's Name
hi, how could i make a floating one, bigger is fine
Hi! I suspect you could tie it like a booby or a fab with foam eyes or tail, or even type the foam within the body and cover with the rubber band. You can find this by googling booby foam/eyes. Hope this helps!
