This fly is amazing and has been my go-to for a few years now. I always start my day with it as the anchor fly of my nymph tandem and rarely need to change it out. It works great in small streams and big water (as long as it's clear) and I never have less than three dozen with me on every outing. I normally go with the natural color in an 18 but many times will use a yellow variant to match sulphurs in the water or one with a purple bead and purple wire as a stimulator. I also tie them with glass beads on size 20 emerger hooks and run them at the end of the tandem. They take me about three minutes to tie and even without head cement or resin (I use all varieties) they are very durable and will last an entire day of steady fishing. Don't let the tie-off behind the wing casing deter you.
P.S. It was a pleasure meeting you at the show today, Tim! I can finally put a face to the voice in the videos.
Great talking to you at the show as well and thanks for the comments on the Double Standard. I can't believe 7 years have gone by since I made this video. It is still one of my favorite flies to tie and fish. Tightlines.
I know you aren’t the only one who does this, and if it’s what you wanna do then who really cares. But why do you need “at least” 36 flies of the same pattern In order to feel prepared to go fish? Sincerely curious, not just trying to troll.
@@spork1125 Different sizes and colors of the same fly, like a double standard or a soft hackle PT will often cover a number of different aquatic insect species in their nymph stage. I usually have at least six different varieties of size and color and 5 or 6 of each of those varieties so that when you zero in on what they're feeding on you have extras because you're bound to lose nymphs every day. I got out for an hour this morning and broke off three flies. You always need back-ups.
Truly great fly-tying videos. Very detailed, and great quality camera. Keep them coming!
Glad you like it.
Great video as always
Davie and you are the best
Thanks from The UK
thats one badass bug-imitating, fish-catching, device. great idea.
I will be adding these to my fly boxes.
Yes I do and the pattern does look and fish fine without the bead.
just noticed: good music.
Very nice fly. Where in the world do you find pheasant tails with such long barbules. Back when PA had a lot of wild pheasants, I could shoot the occasional mature bird with that kind of tail feathers. I have bought tails from many sources over the last 15 - 20 yrs. and have yet to get ahold of a decent one.
Material list would help on your videos. But that is a nice buggy fly I tied some using gray squirrel and mink they look very buggy to thanks
Not sure where the list of materials is found - great video and again - saw a couple of new "tricks"

Hey man, great fly, by the way, what’s the name of the song?
2:11 Whats the reason for rotating the wire to the far side?
So the wire doesn't jostle the tail during the first wrap. I hits the hook first. See starting at 4:00.
Yea. I thought that might be it. But if I didnt ask I wouldnt be sure :) Many thanks!
Youve got MANY good videos btw. Happy hollidays from Sweden
Do you ever skimp on the bead and maybe go to a 18 or 20? I have personally found non beadheaded nymphs look a little bit more natural as with the smaller hooks but thats just me. Curious to hear your opinion.
the pre packaged stuff is so long had to recut all of it needs to be much finer....
You sure do waste alot of thread when cuting it off....but a very nice and detailed fly tying video...nice work!
