AK Best was a cool guy. Nice tribute to a great fly fisherman.
Still is!
Excellent use of a traditional wet fly hackling technique !!! Gonna tie up a few of these!!
Here on the White R. in Arkansas. we are in the midst of another spectacular caddis hatch. Saw a buddy tie this fly last week but he had not fished it. I tied up a few. Fished it last two days and it is absolutely deadly. Fish wouldn't touch the "go to" EHC but ate this pattern like candy. Tightlinevideos -- THE BEST.
I’ve used this for browns and rainbows, and when he says boy does it ever work! He is completely correct! Especially, right at dawn or sunset. Enjoy & stay strong my fishy friends!
Great fly. Thanks for posting. Best wishes from a locked-down, no fishing allowed UK.
Simple and effective I'm sure...caddis time is coming on the south Platte...cant wait!
Really like the way you tie this one.
Appears simple !
Enjoy all your posts.

Another great video. Your camera work is always impressive. Nice that you give credit to Hans. He has some great techniques. Thanks for the content.
So simple, yet so good.
Wow! Super Caddis pattern. I’ll deffo give it a go. Thanks for another one dude.
I just made my first fly!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
It looks very similar to the E-12 fly, a super popular fly over here in Scandinavia.
Nice pattern and very well presented. Interesting hackle tie. I Will try to match the materials and tie a few up for next season as we are in lockdown and in autumn down under in NZ. Thanks.
My favorite caddis fly is one that emulates a failed emerger. It is called a cripple calibatus. The body of the fly Rests below the surface. While the head rests above the water. It is best presented upstream of your fish and drifted over the fish.
Excellent fly👌 great tied👍
Beautiful tie.
Hope to see y’all in Atlanta at the Fly Fishing Show👍
Grizzly ginger is what I would call it. Great pattern.
Great pattern.
I really wish Mr. Weilenmann would start making videos again.
👍👍 Nice one..Thanks! (again)
This looks so simple but it's gotta be super deadly.
Thank you.
Very nice! thank you..
Nice 👍
What would say is your toughest fly to tie on the channel?
Where does one find a bleached partridge
wow...keren..😍👍
The neck you got the hackle from looks like a Cree neck.
Tim, Help. Where can I find a dyed ginger partridge skin? Thanks for another great pattern.
Hi Tim,I just purchased a Revolution,just wondering what jaws are you using in this video, cheers
He says, "I'm not even going to try to describe it, I just know it looks super buggy"
And can you tie a fly for fishing in the winter from under the ice?)))
Yes we do it all of the time.
