NOBODY | The Mission's Art Director Brendan "BOD" Body
Просмотров 830Месяц назад
One of The Mission’s unsung heroes, Brendan “Bod” Body, is many things. A former pro skateboarder and skateboarding magazine founder and editor, a profligate fly thief, a tall ginger giraffe with verbal diarrhoea, and our long-suffering art director. Bod might claim to be a nobody in the skateboarding and fly fishing circles, but following his passion for magazines has allowed him to live and b...
LALU BUG by Platon Trakoshis - Step-by-step fly tying
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.2 месяца назад
Tied and designed by Platon Trakoshis. The Lalu Bug is a heavy dragonfly nymph pattern that rides hook-point up, imitating the stubbier dragonfly nymphs naturals from the classes Libellulidae and Gomphidae. This pattern evolved from a fly that Platon initially used for targeting carp on the Berg river, and now in its final form, is used to fish for an array of species, but still very similar to...

Half-shark, half-stingray, the lesser guitarfish (AKA sandsharks/ sandies), are a gem of South Africa's West Coast, and the ambush-fly angler's dream come true. In this latest film Houdini by The Mission's Matt Kennedy, anglers Jimmy Eagleton and Leonard Flemming explore three different habitats along the West Coast, showing just how tricky fly fishing for sandsharks can be, and just how experi...
Fly tying tutorial: EXTENDED HOLLOW FLEYE by Andre van Wyk
Просмотров 8 тыс.4 месяца назад
Ahrex's new Beast Fleye hook, developed with the help of Bob Popovics, is ideal for tying large fleye-style patterns. The hook's long shank allows for more tie in points, and/or for bigger spaces between tie in points, resulting in a sparser, better swimming pattern. In this step by step extended hollow fleye tutorial, Andre van Wyk (@BucktailFlies) shows how Ahrex's beast hook can be used to t...

Modelled off a basic EP shrimp fly, and named after a Venezuelan assassin, Ewan Naude’s “Carlos the Jackal” fleeing shrimp fly pattern uses jackal fur to substitute synthetic material. Jackal fur has good movement in the water and presents various hues of colour. This pattern will work well in many tropical destinations around the world, such as the flats of the Seychelles or Mexico, and is per...

RIDERS ON THE STORM with THE MISSION and BMW MOTORRAD
This fly will result in a major mess of your leader tippet, as it will heliocopter like crazy as tied .
Perhaps if you insist on fishing it with the wrong tippet, you get that effect. Seems to not be a problem for Herman and the other Vaal River anglers who use this fly.
Awsome fly man
Andre, I've only seen a few of your tutorials so far. They are absolutely awesome!! I caught my first ever musky this year, completely by mistake while fishing for walleye. I am totally hooked. Like buying a complete new outfit, tying new flies kind of hooked. For 37 years I've flyfished for nothing but trout, mostly bugs size 12 or smaller. Your videos are a great learning tool for me. Can't wait to see something else from you.
Nice looking pattern
Who painted the picture in the background of the carp or yellowtail eating the dry fly?

@@TheMissionFlyFishingMagazine Thankyou!
Beautiful little nymph
Perfect demonstration and tutorial
I assume that these are saltwater flies? I don’t tie many streamer type flies.
Stunning fly! I've been tying for over a decade but always seeing new stuff. Bet this would work awesome for smallmouth bass here in the Great Lakes. Thanks for sharing! ps I fucking _LOVE_ your magazine. Best in the business, no question.
Ah man 🥰 this is epic! 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
Love you Bod! Not sure about that pink hat though
Does any body knows which type of foam Larva Lace is using? It seems to have a more open structure than standard EVA foam.
Love this tribes vibe.
I had the pleasure of meeting him… albeit briefly at the screening of Rolf’s film…. Probably one of the coolest people I’ve met ever…
This way of adding a tail & length is pure genius, thanks for sharing it.
Great looking fly. Can you explain why you use the calf tail and jackal instead of just using jackal for the horn/front? Thank you.
Assume the calf tail is stiffer than jackal
Late to the party as usual. Good to see you working on a long hook. I have a set of jigs 1/2, 3/4, 1 oz that have 7/0 and 8/0 hooks. Not so much the luxury of hook shank but more like, wth do I do with all this space? I've tied a couple of truly ugly overdressed things that look like circus wagons with clowns hanging out. Watching you gives me a better sense of proportion. Staggered bullet ties with shouldered feathers looks like a good thing to try in the midsection. Been using curled peacock hurl for the top line. Combed in squimpish would be a little more civilized. Always get something good from watching you Andre. Thanks. Looking forward to more late night karaoke on the backchannel.
Cheers Jim, appreciate the comments and glad you may have picked up a few tricks for your tying!
Hi what kind of vise did you use?
That's a J-Vice. www.jvice.com/
I will tie this pattern for my local carps
I'm into background info. Great pattern and vid, too!
What flies did you use
Very nice and excellent explanation by the author
Pretty typical of young SA dudes in this sort environment; on the face of it all serious ‘client business’, but lots of harmless fun & games behind the facade, and why not! Reminds one of one’s youth!
Growing up we regularly fished the Transkei Wild Coast & caught Lesser s-sharks up to about 15lb on bait; my wife & I decided to get married while down there once & 44yr on we’re returning for a 10 day holiday to the same spot: having seen this video & your excellent Kwan fly video will be trying for them on fly! Thanks for the eye-opener!
So this is what thor aka chris hemsworth has been doing? very cool!
I've been looking on RUclips for a video on this location as I'm heading there early next year. This is by far and another mile ahead of anything else. An honest, unbiased, no frills yet superbly filmed, narrated and presented video that says everything a fishing video should and nothing it shouldn't. Liked the way you didn't hide the wind issues for example! Well done! My new addition to my go to Subscription list for trip planning!!!
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback.
My country ❤🇬🇦
Muito espectacular
Great SBS. Thanks
Great delivery Pla! 7:51
Guys… is the fly fishing film tour coming back to Joburg this year?
Mountain dew.. for those who cant drink coffee anymore.
I like this video in spite of the bass
Really lekker work my friend!!
Great video, wish to see more content like this!
My kinda fly movie! Epic work, Matt! 🙌🙌🙌 I've wanted me a guitarfish for how long, now I properly need one.
Thanks LeRoy! I won’t pretend to know anything about catching them 🤣 but maybe we can look at shooting something on the Garden Route one day!
@@polaroidmatt Dude, that would be sweeet. Again, great work, bru!
Such a cool piece well done lads… so cool to see an “alternative” fishery showcased!
Thanks Dre! Agreed. Keen to do more unconventional stuff.
That's definitely some species I'll put on my bucket list, looks quite fun !
Super cool. Always nice to see something new being caugh on the fly.
sorry but can you explain why the whire is so thick on ahrex.
These hooks were developed to withstand a wide range of larger species, specifically being targeted with very large flies, mainly in saltwater so the heavier gauge hooks are a necessity
Think I read a blog chat many many years ago where the two of you were debating if the shark sees the fly? 😅
Awesome vid
Really enjoyed that! Such an underrated species!
Tight
cool species to target on fly !
Fantastic video!
Great video. There's a fish like that on the shore here in Argentina.
I caught these off a pier in Oceanside, Ca. Me and my brother. We ate them. Really good meat on the tail.
love the mission mag
Awesome guys, The Mission is magic! Great showcase of another cool species to target 🤟
