Speaking of talking too much; the depth of fishing/fly tying experience cached into your tutorials: hints, tips, downright bad ass nuggets are shortcuts teaching us way more than we should know--very much enjoyed and appreciated!! Randy c
Great early Christmas present having Professor Galloup back at the vise! Thanks for sharing, love these Videos!
Hey Howdy 🎉 Kelly,
Greetings from NW MICHIGAN !!!
I love the “ SMELT “ analogy ….. BINGO !
Thank You for this tutorial and Bustin’ Pattern 🎊😎🎄
✨🎣💫
also looks great as juvenile salmon/steelhead as they out-migrate...
So glad there’s more tying content!!! THANKS!
Thanks Kelly!
My fishing partner and I focus on lakes and reservoirs so I’m going to adapt your pattern to tie a rainbow minnow, a chub minnow, and a white attractor minnow. Thanks so much for the fantastic pattern.
Your fly shop had everything I needed in terms of tying materials for the three colors I plan to tie. Best regards!
Thanks for sharing I’m so glad to see you back at the vise again Kelly!!!!!!
Those vertical eye hooks make trailers *so* much easier. I'd like to see some with a (more or less) Gammy B-10S design - heavier wire, medium length, wider gape. Great fly! Love your videos!
Terry, like you I hate wasting material. In order to eliminate materials from pulling out of zip ties, I simply apply a couple drops of thin UV resin to the zip tie and the material to lock them in place.
Fantastic fly Kelly. This will keep me busy over the holidays. Thanks as always for the videos!
Nice fly Kelly. I especially like the different color wings. Now I have to go get a smelt dinner tomorrow. Keep the good stuff coming.
Loved it mate..keep them coming..Pauly at Wilderness Coast on Fly in Australia 🤓👍🇦🇺
When you look at that fly for fitting into your rotation on color. Where do you put it? White ? I make a few flies with that problem. Either way. It doesn't matter. Love that fly. I picked up a few from your shop. Haven't slammed any hogs yet. But it sure is a dancer 💃 thanks for the video.
That’s a good looking fly and looks like one I could tie.
Good afternoon Kelly, I was wondering what, if any, the functional purpose of putting the tail on after the tinsel halfway up the rear hook shank?
Kelly / Slide Inn staff - what the best ways to fish this streamer? Cross stream strip, upstream strip back (like peanut envy), swing and strip, ???
Can’t wait for the next tutorial❤
As a guy who really tries to use up all my materials, I am just wandering if the baitfish emulator would be as good as the predator wrap??
And.... I take all "the junk" that comes off materials and I have a few "sandwitch size" zip lock bags ( one for dark one for blue/green/etc)and a lot of it goes in there to make dubbing.
It looks more like a smelt than a smelt. Merry Christmas
43:05 UV light isn’t good for your eyes, but it depends on how powerful the light is. Don’t stare into it and you’ll be fine.
I couldn’t tell, is the curve of the feather towards each other or facing away? Wasn’t sure if it swim different. Great pattern. Thanks for sharing.
Toward each other, but either way works
Thanks for sharing this fly I'm going to have to ty up a few. I know you're using a 1/0 hook up front but what hook is it?
It is the MFC 7052 1/0 for the front hook

Man I want to see this in the water real bad.
What a killer looking pattern! Just tried to downsize this using a 8 and 6, but it's still quite a big pattern. What was the overall length of this pattern? Love the videos... awesome work
Also, would you have any reservations about adding a bead for weight up front, maybe right behind the material layers??
love the videos but would really like some that are just the tying to go back to when tying at the vise.
Hi Kelly: thank you for a great tutorial and sharing all the new materials i now need to buy, je je. When you are gluing the eyes w/ uv resin, the tube has a small curved metal spout--is that the same Solarez medium shown in the package? I am using a loon "thin" that is not thin but a gluppy mess! Please, Help!! Thanks a bunch, Randy c
Randy, Its medium Solarez, I use med on the first coats in particular so it does not run up the material and go past the eyes. Whenever I use the thin it runs up my wings a little and makes a hard sot in the wing which I assume will break the wing off. Kelly
@@kellygalloup Thanks, much appreciated!
Hi Kelly, How would you change this for snook or red fish on the Fla Gulf Coast?
Kelly, do you find that your streamer patterns work better in certain areas than others? Meaning, do they work better in your area, but with me being in Virginia they won't be as effective because they don't imitate the local bait fish? Most of the trout I have access to will be more around the 1 foot in length kind of size
Hey Kelly, what is your opinion on an upward-facing rear hook? I am thinking I want to make this fly to troll for lake trout with.
When is it going to be in production
They are in production now... we should be getting them in this season at some point, just not sure when.
Smallmouth here in Illinois eat the heck out of it
What vise is that you are using?
Renzetti Presentation 4000 C-Clamp
Very cool pattern. My question is, for those of us that don’t have a rotary vise with all the gadgets and gizmos that obviously make tying this type of fly easier, is it worth it (without a lot of swearing) to attempt this kind of pattern. A second question would be, what is your opinion on the limits of fly patterns feasible for a standard vise.
Michael, absolutely you should tie it. The whole rotary thing is a nice tool but frankly I frequently (especially on this fly) just wrap by hand. You really have more control over your materials by hand and I like to see people start manual and then go to a rotary. One of the greatest tiers in the world in my option is Davy McPhail and he is total stationary guy. Thanks for watching, Kelly
Is the slick willy a pearl necklace with a different front end? And if so, what was the reason to make a different fly? That is not the same as the original pearl necklace instrument. Which was closer to having a jig style head attachment. There are so many flies in the archive now described in these tutorials. What one tends to lose, is the relationship between the different flies. We've learned a lot about the flies individually, but not as much as to their combination or relationship (for example, in the way that gear anglers would talk along those lines). About the different bites, feeding patterns that happen in parallel and at the same time on stretches of water. For instance, if one suspected that the pearl necklace type of bite was changing a bit. To where fish had positioned differently and higher in the water column (or the fish are feeding up slightly, rather than hugging the bottom more). Does one recommend carrying both of these flies? Or any others? As a recommended practice or strategy to try? For example, early season when temperatures might flucturate a bit day by day. And one might get bites on either one or other. A lot of fly anglers will look at both these flies and not even notice a difference between them. Yet, the difference could be significant.
Man, got the materials to tie this fly. They are horse shit to work with. Especially the ice wing fiber. Didn't come zip tied and is a nightmare to even up and put one on. Cool fly tho
Kinda looks like a modern version of a Grey Ghost. Is that meant for saltwater or freshwater, trout or salmon?
Hay Kelly Calgary. Alberta SAY'S hi . Looking forward to the pattern .Let's do this
