Tyin Multiple size patterns on the same hook is Excellent Advice as many people "believe" you have to hide the hook to entice a fish ( which is not the case) 😁
Hey soggy, I really enjoy your pyramid lake videos and always look forward to watching them. I can’t wait for you to post another one when and if you can. Thanks soggy!
Thanks for the great pattern! I am new to fly tying and am struggling to find the white antron in my local fly tying shops. 2 stores did not know what I was talking about yet it is used with a lot of tiers here on You Tube. Is it known by another name? or is there another source where I could get it?
Lately I’ve actually been using a different product, white Uni-Stretch. It comes on a spool just like regular tying thread. It’s easier to use, and looks more like gills in my opinion. If you just google “white Uni-Stretch”, You’ll see what I’m talking about.
Great channel bud- What time frame would you target to make a trip to pyramid for the giants? I know it can vary, but an average time frame, I'm 1000 miles away, hopeing to have a chance at a giant-
Thank you! Every season is different. Generally, I’d say that if you want quality rather than quantity, you’d want to target the colder months. December-February. The bigger fish have to eat all the time. Their large size comes with a much higher caloric requirement. The smaller fish can stick to the deeper, warmer water during those cold months, and remain in a more lethargic state to conserve energy, thus not requiring much feed. So when you do hook a fish during that time, the chances of it being a big fish are high. As you move closer to the spawn, and the water temps rise, you have more fish of all sizes cruising the shallows while they stage up for the spawn, and there’s also more feed at that time with midges. So while the big fish are still there, the smaller fish are also there. You’ll catch many smaller fish before you hook into those big ones. I usually like to fish it in March because you get a little bit of both worlds. Water temps are usually still low enough, and it’s early enough in the season, that you’re not getting those huge numbers of fish moving through as often as you will in April. But again, this is all weather dependent.
@@SoggySleeves Thank you so much for the reply. I am considering this year in the coming weeks, maybe with all the clod weather the spawn will be a touch later, and still be good in a few weeks- Again, many thanks, maybe we'll see ya on the water one day!

Great fly pattern. Thanks for the tips in tying as well. I always learn a ton from watching. Tight lines!
Awesome pattern

You bet! Good luck!
Love it! Very impressed!
Nicely done.

OK thanks! I have seen this used on a couple of patterns. I will order me some!@@SoggySleeves
@soggy I know you mentioned that you might start selling some flies... would love to get a Pyramid lake box from you! Let me know..
Sounds like you have a sleeping beagle in the background 🤣🤣
Haha it’s a black Pug! Vinny is the man, and his snoring can be heard in 90% of my videos.
😅😅 😢" sorry, it's not in its original packaging "
Means..
This kid can fish...
