Presenting on the subject of my unique journey through fly fishing (at this point, 2015-2019), through the lenses of the guided trips I lead, the flies that I tie, and the rods that I build.

This streamer pattern, created by Bill Edson, once a favorite of the Lyman family here in Massachusetts, prized for its effectiveness on the native Eastern Brook Trout of the region, has proved incredibly effective for me time and again, so I figured it was high-time to share it with everyone!
this is my favorite fly, it's my go-to for any type of trout. one thing I like about it is that it hasn't become popular yet. I usually tie them with kreelex and I've had most luck with the color gold. I've never seen this method of tying it and i will have to try it out. ive seen them for 30$ for 6 of them at cabelas in Scarborough Maine. great video!!
Great video. Mr Dick Empie was a great guy and this is a great pattern. It has been producing for me for a couple years now.. Thanks for posting this. This pattern is available to purchase at Bass Pro in Foxboro for those that do not tie themselves. They also have a picture of Mr. Empie in the reel case there as well. He sure loved to fly fish.. I have been enjoying tying these up for a while myself. Tight lines.... RIP Mr. Empie. I'm sure he's enjoying the fishing.
The Bear's Den in Taunton MA also has them in stock usually.

Hi Geoff, nice flash fly. I've seen a similar if not the same technique in a saltwater tying magazine using that body braid. Also looks similar to a kreelex., even a meth egg sucker spawn in 3D ( lol. ) Cool technique at any rate and looks like it'll do some damage. Good luck on the striped bass, I know their freshwater cousins love flash in those colors.
Really beautiful Dark Tiger. I like how you added a throat. It balances that topping nicely. I'm more familiar with the Light version, when I saw the Dark in Mike Valla's Tying & Fishing Bucktails I didn't care for the short topping. Cool that you have "Edson eyes". Well you hooked me, I've subscribed, looking forward to more of your work. Thanks. 👍
Thank YOU for your thoughtful comment and for subscribing! The fly in this video is the "Light" variation, refering to the color of the bucktail wing, the Dark Edson Tiger uses the darker fibers from the same yellow bucktail, in addition to a yellow yarn body (as opposed to peacock herl). I am in the midst of moving, starting a new job, and lots of guiding work, but I plan on adding more tying videos shortly! I hope you'll enjoy those as well! Thanks again!
Geoff Klane Oops, that's what I meant. I was familiar with the Dark, saw both in Valla's book, the Light weirded me out with that short topping. That's why I liked your version with the added throat. Damn confusing names! lol, thanks.
