can't wait to try out that little technique where you leave a bit of the leadwire out and then tie in over it. I've been having trouble keeping that lead secure on some ties. thanks
looks like a brown-dyed Hungarian Partridge feather. If you tie a lot of soft-hackle flies, buy a skin and you'll always have the correct size and variegation.
You really should be filming it from your point of view instead of from the opposite side of the fly, especially since you are positioning your tied in materials on the side facing you.
Best prince tutorial on the World Wide Web 👊🏼
Thanks great as usual!

Great tip for the white biots - thanks!
The soft hackle feather you used was gorgeous. I dont know that I've ran into anything marked so nicely.

I have learned a lot from your videos, thank you sir!
Excellent tie, great technique, thanks tons for the instructions!
Like to fish this fly, but hate tying them because I can't get the wing to look right. I like this method of tying them in, thanks for sharing.
I cut wire with a fingernail clipper; it saves wear and tear on scissors.
Size of hook & bead?
More luck dead drift or stripped back?
When nothing is working, (and for me that's often 😂), I hang a prince off an elk hair caddis and in amazed at how often that prince does the trick
Have you had any luck at all using it as a streamer?
I have had several large bluegill smack a prince nymphs while I was using it as a streamer.

Great pattern like how you stick to the original pattern I hate when people dub the head
