I've been tying for 30 years. Still learning from the master! Thanks Charlie.

Thanks for you knowledge of tying flies an sharing it.

Good lord, I had no idea of the thought put into different tailing materials. I usually just look at colors for tails. 😄 Great info! I'll be more thoughtful going forward. Thanks!

Excellent video as usual. Looking forward to the 'How to ...' videos. Agree on the pheasant tails, got a load of 'tailess' PTN's after a few fish! Not considered Moose before, have to keep an eye out at BBFI in February 2025 over here in the UK

Mottled CDL substitute is a guinea hen. Comes with some feathers that almost appear not mottled to very distinctly mottled feathers. Easy to dye when hen CDL in the color I need is not available. Love the spade hackle explanation. Thanks

I thought spade hackles came from the “shoulder” area of a rooster, kind of between the cape and the saddle.

Old school moose mane tail!

[@dankochanek8056]

Moose first appeared here in fossils 2 million years ago.
