- Our Stillwater fly tying series continues with today's offering absolutely one of Brian Chan signature patterns. Brian's damselfly pattern is one of the most successful patterns for Lake in Stillwater fishing. nothing beats this pattern for the prelude to the damselfly Hatch. Enjoy tying this fly. As a bonus Brian discusses the best fishing techniques for the damselfly nymph
If you are watching Brian for the first time, his videos are the most:
A. Informative
B. Entertaining
C. Inspiring
You can learn without feeling like he is being condescending. The highest honor would be able to fish an afternoon with this legend.
If you are fishing BC waters, Brian can teach how to be successful by showing which fly to use, how to tie it and most importantly HOW to fish it.
Thank you Brian.
Damselfly nymphs were a staple producer of big trout when fished just above weed beds and on the edges of bullrush patches in the Plains Lakes west of Laramie, WY. Caught a ten pound rainbow one year on my own damsel pattern, that uses three ginger hackle tips at the end of the abdomen to imitate the nymph's caudal gills. Should be in every freshwater angler's box, as I've even caught steelhead on that pattern here on the Trinity River in northern CA.
thank you for your comment . I really enjoy fishing damselflies with my good friend Randall Kaufman who ties a pretty good damsel fly also. we love fishing from the bank on Wyoming's soda Lake casting to cruisers in the morning with damsels. Be sure to tell your friends about our channel
Does the addition of bead chain eyes effect the movement in a negative way?
Probably not many tyers add beads to damsel nymphs
Brian, with the weighted eyes on top, won’t this fly ride upside down in the water?
