Breathtakingly beautiful Davie
Another masterpiece Davie, plenty of movement with this beauty, and the colour combination makes it come to life, when you put the hairdryer on it. You make it look easy!👌
Did enjoy it, Davie... thanks. The still picture at the end of the video is wonderful.

That color combination will catch almost any freshwater fish. If it was a lure, it would be called firetiger color. VERY nicely done Sir!
Love this colors thx for sharing
Brilliant 😄😄😄 thanks for showing us how you prepared the tube as well. Great video Davie :)
great looking fly dave thanks for taken the time to show us bet it looks killer in the water i reckon fly like this take more fish plenty of movement in the water bit of life about them
Hello Davie,
Very delicious fly, I think it will work great for salmon on the rivers of the South Coast of Kola Peninsula.
Hi Davy , cracking fly that everything about it looks right screams fish !
Great tie as always!
Beautiful fly! I am going to tie one of these tonight! I'll have to watch again just to write the recipe down. I don't know how I missed this when you did it. I rarely miss one of yours. All the best, and Happy New Year. Sean
Happy New Sean and all the very best for 2018...Davie..
Great fly, I am sure our Dutchies will nickname it 'Freddy's Fly'! ;)
Hi and thanks Davie for the info and great very detailed video happy holidays Scott
Hi Scott,
Thank you for the kind words and Merry Christmas to you and have a wonderful time..
All the very best Davie
Verry good video-visually...
you know s@#t is real when you blowdry the fly. A masterful work as always davie, you are one of the reasons I progressed as a fly tyer. be well.
👍🏻
Mr . McPhail, yet another piece of art you've made! How much exactly to do sell your flies for? I'm interested in purchasing your top 4 or 5 favorite Steelhead flies! Thank you!
What would be the best substitute for the Blue Eared Pheasant feather? Some saddle hackle would be ok or too short? Awesome pattern Sir!
Hi Krzysiek Stefanczyk,
Ring Neck Rump feathers can be very good as a sub so I have attached a link to Sean Stantons website as he has some that you may like to try..He also sells Intruder hackles which can also be worth using on this type of fly...I'm glad you liked the fly...
All the very best Davie

Hi Davie, I'll take a six pack of those Heineken please! What a beautiful fly! I love the way the bottom stays open, looks like a bait fish, tear drop shape to boot. I wondered why you cut the front of the outer tube at an angle, and is the tube fished with a hook holder at the back, I forget what what they are called? Also, I purchased a beautiful silver fox tail, is there anything I can do to make it easier to use? It's boned out, split, and very clean. I don't know if I should wash it and try to flatten it out like a bucktail and/or cut into medallions. It's hard to hold it open to cut on the skin side, like you would a rabbit pelt. Thanks Davie, you gave excellent instruction on tying the fly, as you always do, always giving a choice in materials and providing the techniques to tye it the best way possible.
Hi Joe,
Cutting the outer tubing in a taper just works well for me as i always like to taper the dressing towards the head just like I do in most salmon flies...It also helps to secure the inner tubing so it's less likely to come loose from the dressing.. Running the fox hair through a comb will always help make the fox much easier to work with, I use a dog comb and as well a small bone comb to clean the fox before I tye with it..I hope this is of some help to you..
All the very best Davie..
Davie McPhail Yes, thanks Davie, atb...
Hello Davie. I enjoy your videos a lot and i tie and fish many of your patterns. This heineken fly is a wonderful pattern which I would like to tie as an intruder with red dumbell eyes... may I ask your advice on two things? First, should I still tie in the JC, or do the dumbell eyes replace it well enough? Second, where do you recommend to position the eyes - in front or behind the hackle? Appreciate your help, Hannes
Hi Hannes,
I have tyed a few Intruder flies over the years and I have added large jungle cock eyes behind the hackle as I feel it suits this style..I would tye some with and without the jungle cock just to see how they fish especially if I was using the dumbell eyes. I'm glad you enjoy the videos and thank you for the very kind words...All the very best Davie..
Thank you for the fast and kind reply! I will try as you suggested!
Hello Davie could you tell me where to buy the tube jig you use many thanks Scott
Hi Scott,
I have attached a link to the tube fly adapter I used in the video...
All the very best Davie..

Can the Heineken be tied on a normal hook Davie please? Would you do a video to show this please?
Hi Dewi,
You could tye a smaller version of this fly in the same colour combination but it would be a totally different fly..
All the very best Davie
What's the name of the tubing cutter? Source? Thanks in advance.
