Watched this video like all of your videos. Like a kid sitting too close to the tv. So much excellent concept and application info in here. Thanks for pulling out all the stops and sharing the knowledge man. You've got me rushing around with my brain cup just trying to catch it all! 😋
Best profile I've seen on a fly. I noticed the body tubing did eat up hook gap space. Has anyone noticed any issues with hook-ups? If you're going to watch this to learn how to tie the fly, great! But, If you are also open to learning how to understand how tie flies to catch more fish, you can do that here as well! As usual, excellent video, Gunnar.
Another terrific video! Amazing fly jerk and turn. Nice alternative to dubbing loops. Thanks again for explaining not just how to imitate a pattern, but your theories behind it all. That way we can free-form our flies, but with a kickstart on our experimentation.
Such a beautiful beast of a fly. Thanks for sharing your updates on the Mega Jerk. I need to get some of those materials including the hooks and tie some up. That Gamechanger book is going to be my next book purchase.
A great tying video to end a great day, caught my pb LMB on a homemade fly that was inspired by your articulated geezer. Keep up the quality vids Gunnar, this is the first channel I check for when I log on youtube.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does any of you know of a method to get back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the login password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Ezra Layton thanks so much for your reply. I found the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Going to tie one up in a walleye color pattern for this spring. Any experience in using sculpting flash fiber for heads? How does it compare to strung fuzz?
Gunnar - amazing work per usual. Would you be able to give the size of the fastach clip you used for the mono rig? I will try and find a reference in Paul M's videos otherwise. Thank you and may God bless you and your family.
Most Jerk/Glide bait Lures that Walk the Dog rely on a rear-weighted balance point that the nose of the lure pivots around, allowing them to switch directions. A Jerk fly on the other hand will start to deflect due to imperfections in the head, material stacking, density, ect.....(which are always the same each strip, hence it starts to deflect to the same side each time) before the Rear Hook runs into the head jackknifing and pushing the fly into the profile show. If you were to make the fly Rigid, on a single piece of long wire, with a rear weighted balance point and a near frictionless head that was perfectly consistent....you could likely get a closer imitation to the Glide bait style lure design.
Tie the fly, i dont need an encyclopedia description on every step and material. One hour...make a two part video. Tie with no explanation. Part 2...description.

Just discovered your site. Best presentation of tying this type of fly I have ever seen. Thanks.
Wow ! That uses a lot of material but, looks great and has great action . Thanks for all the tips .
Good to see you still crowd the eye too
Another nice fly Gunnar. It keeps me entertained during the winter and the Covid lockdown. Keep the good stuff coming.

Nice ! Love the way it kicks sideways on the strip. I might have to tie a few of these.

@Ezra Layton It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
@Kelvin Caden glad I could help =)
Dang it Gunnar, now I need to tie a big box full of these monsters.
Super informative, great reference Gunnar
Amazing recipe ! So technic ! Love it
Dang it Gunnar, now I gotta tie more giant flies

You rock hope all is well

Learn something again. Been testing my flies in the bathtub incorrectly. Oh well, thanks Gunnar! Btw are you stocking squimish hair anytime soon?
Great fly
You make amazing flies ,how would an articulating popper work?
Really like this pattern. If you want to give it a go over in Iron County, lemme know.
Nice tie.
Can you use lazer dub as a substitute for the head? I’m assuming that as long as the profile is there the action would perform somewhat the same.
Do you sale affordable streamers? They looks nice. I am trying to use streamers and top water for wipers. Thanks.
What Type and size of leader do you use for the jerk flies? Also I’m assuming floating line?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Show de iscas,bem chamativas abraços 💯🎣🛥️
why is your "big fly fiber" longer than anything i can find? what bvrand is it and where can i order some? thanks!
Perfect👍
Why do they always turn to the same side though? This is the problem I run into with all jerk bait-type flies.

you should put the hook more in the vise so you wont get stick the hook in your harms
Esta pocamadre tu señuelo bro...
HOLY SHIT Gunner thats at LEAST $ 100.00 (Canadian) lure. NOT for me.
The first 15 minutes only to speaking for me very very long and your fly it same to spinning lure. no good
