i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can give me
@Kash Cole thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Been tying for decades but always enjoy videos that share tips - great to see someone else's way of doing things! "Buggy" flies are great and have their place just as smooth, tight bodies do. If I can add to your tips my method for creating a dubbing "rope" to create a tight, tapered body with good segmentation... I dubb a tight noodle 30% longer than what I need that is tapered to both ends; I catch the noodle at the 60% point with a shepards-hook dubbing twister and fold the noodle back on itself into a dubbing loop, tie off the thread and wrap it forward out of the way; then I twist up the dubbing loop to make a "rope" and wrap the body with that. It takes a second to do and gives a lot more control over the whole process than a basic dubbing noodle so I use this method all the time. "Spikeyness" is controlled by the fur selection and often I will add some long fibers (flash, feather or hair) into the loop before twisting to create a composite loop that forms a collar on the fly. The end result is very durable and doesn't need to be ribbed. Cheers! Hank
Totally agree. My only problem with a dubbing rope is that I don't feel like I have as much control as to how big the segmentations will be when I wrap them forward to form the body. I always want gradually larger segments as I move toward the head of the fly, so when I want a segmented body I will use wire, mono, or something like that to put those segments exactly where I want them and get a guaranteed taper. I have see guys do ropes that have that kind of control, but I am a guide and go through WAY too many flies to work that hard on nymphs....that is like a woven body--I LOVE how they look, I just refuse to spend that much time on something that I know will end up in the bottom of the river or on a tree limb. :)
@@flyfishingtheozarks Find that with a bit of practice and by getting the right amount of material into the basic noodle I can get the rope the approximate diameter I need and then fine-tune the size by how tight I twist it. I do admit that have been doing these for a LONG time LOL! Hear you about woven nymphs - the two-tone bodies are very realistic but I can't justify the time it takes to make one either. I made up a batch 30 years ago and still haven't had the courage to actually tie one on my leader and get it wet. I tie "fancy flies" and classic patterns for fun - for fishing the fish seem to prefer simple patterns that can be tied in 3-4 minutes - suits me fine (darn those fly-eating trees!!).
Very helpful, I have been struggling with dubbing for years and this video has given me a way forward. Thanks. The only thing I would say is "how does one make very slim profile flies, for Euro nymphs in particular" Tight lines and peace
There is a whole Fly Tying Tips video coming based on Articulation. I am going to cover Wire vs Mono vs Braid and how and why I do mine the way I do it.
Great video...thanks for sharing. If you are watching this video and have not tried split thread dubbing DO IT! In terms of other areas, for future videos: pinch blending small batches of your own custom dubbing (I love spiky squirrel + SLF or Ice Dub blends) and using multiple materials in sequence in one split thread run (like synthetic peacock followed by UV hot spot dubbing followed by some CDC fibers to finish a euro jig nymph in one step) would be beneficial to most IMO.
Totally new to fly tying totally useless , but trying my best , your vids help me immensely , thank you so much, all the best David,🙂. If you saw me tying a fly you would hit me on the head with a pan .LOL.
Thanks for your reply, just tied up five simple streamers , all usable , i am tying about four every day , thank you again for going out your way to reply, David.@@flyfishingtheozarks
I have watched many of your videos. Thanks for those. What I need is how to peel Marabou apart. When I think I have it down, I end up with a bunch of fluff or pieces falling off, etc. Thanks
flyfishingtheozarks i have marabou thats strung together. i am to use it as a tail as an example so i remove a clump from the strung feathers, fluff it out some so i have maybe a 2” feather. my problem is now peeling a portion for the tail with stuff flying off on to the table floor etc, and i don’t know what to use. just a little demo on heres your marabou hold it like this pinch/cut/peel/rip it like this etc. because i don’t know how to use the marabou i end up with several quill and feather fluff. its exasperating ☹️
Thank you for the video! It would be cool to see different dubbings properties: what kind of looks do they have when dubbed. Kind of like a dubbing shoot out.
@@flyfishingtheozarks been binge watching your channel lately. Curious though. When you know your gonna use dubbing. Is there a thread specific to what your tying???
@@bigmick812 I would choose thread based off of the size of the nymph. If you are tying super small nymphs, go small on the thread. The waxed nylon 'can' work, but you can add wax to any thread so.....
Like to try dubbing, not because I think "I got this", but it gives different bodies than just chenille! Thanks, did I say you teach well? Yep, you do!
I generally use dubbing wax when I am building a Dubbing Brush where longer material is actually placed horizontally into a dubbing loop. Other than that, I rarely use dubbing wax.
Thanks for making these available, Brian. Your tying videos and tips are essentially on repeat while working from home during COVID-19. By the time sheltering-in-place is over, I feel like Dally will be sending me an invite to tie for the LoveFest! ...that may be a slight exaggeration... Anyway, I was wondering if it's possible to subscribe via Patreon and pay for the entire year at once, instead of monthly? Like all my fly fishing-related purchases, if my wife knew how much I actually spent she'd shut it down faster than you can tie a whip finish. Keep up the great work and I'll look for you the next time I'm on the North Fork of the White.

@Kash Cole it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you really help me out :D
@Bridger Zeke happy to help :D
Great instructional video !!!

Thanks for this . Avoided dubbing loops for a long time just to find out how much easier they are
THAT'S what I like to hear!!
Thanks for sharing! And merry Christmas and happy new year!

Excellent video for dubbing!!!! Would like to see a video on your method of composite loops as well as multi tool vs patigean clip.
Great information . Never to old to try new technics. Articulation - wire or braid.
There is a whole Fly Tying Tips video coming based on Articulation. I am going to cover Wire vs Mono vs Braid and how and why I do mine the way I do it.
Nice video . Have watched three now and all are very helpful!👍

I would like to see you make really buggy flies using that loop technique
Great video Brian. Learn something new everyday. I have never used a split thread, but will have to now.
good one!i have not used split thread in a lot of years.
Great video and i have tried it all. Still love my norvise and spinning the tread that grabs the dubbin.
Awesome post, I like the tips as well as everything else you've done. Each one has it's place whether the bench or the water

I dont know if I follow, Henry. Can you explain?

please never change your approach to fly tying . best help .

So glad I found this video! Thanks

Some great tips, dude! This will help out everyone who ties flies new and old.

That was great, was hat a great helpful video. Thanks
I always use a wire rib with split thread loops. The fishes teeth only have to cut 1/2 the thread to make it come undone without it.
Thanks Brian.
More Great work thank you
The Vermonter
for split thread technique is there a type of thread you prefer .THANKS for your videos
The easiest thread to use is a medium sized flat thread, but technically you can use anything.
I prefer using the split thread method to the d loop. For some reason I get a more buggy pattern. Whatever works I guess!
Great Video! Deer Hair dubbing brushes
Just wondering do you ever use dubbing wax and if so, when?
I generally use dubbing wax when I am building a Dubbing Brush where longer material is actually placed horizontally into a dubbing loop. Other than that, I rarely use dubbing wax.
Great job Brian, how about deer hair collars on dungeons
I am definitely going to do a deer hair head video that will cover collars, etc. Just close your eyes when I start to trim it. 😳
Thanks for making these available, Brian. Your tying videos and tips are essentially on repeat while working from home during COVID-19. By the time sheltering-in-place is over, I feel like Dally will be sending me an invite to tie for the LoveFest! ...that may be a slight exaggeration...
Anyway, I was wondering if it's possible to subscribe via Patreon and pay for the entire year at once, instead of monthly?

Keep up the great work and I'll look for you the next time I'm on the North Fork of the White.
Thanks! To my knowledge that isn't possible with Patreon....unfortunately.
Awesome thanks!!
Thanks really helpful.
How is your dubbin loops differ from a standered raped loop for dubbin perform thanks tom
What kind of dubbing spinner is that? You wouldn’t believe the amount of tiers that can’t operate a whip finisher! Might be an idea.

Nice
Thanks
the bum notes in the backing track are killing me...
Dang Brian that video was buggy!
COMMENT OF THE DAY!!! LOL
Black Pike Streamers from 8 inch or more
I frigging "over-spin" my dubbingloops 75% of the time. Witch ofcourse breaks them.
Haha, it happens. 🙂
Then why did you not use the split thread for 3 years and now your telling us to know all three.just kidding just like you do all the time ! Lolololo😊
