Shank: OPST Intruder Shank, 45mm
Hook: OPST Swing Hook, size 2
Trailing wire: 30 pound Berkley Fireline
Eyes: Extra small brass eyes
Butt: Senyo's Fusion Dub, Pink Lady
Rear hackle: Intruder Feather Prop Hackle, Bright Purple
Twin Tails: Purple Ostrich
Rear flash: Purple Flashabou
Body: Diamond Braid, Silver
Forward dubbing ball: Senyo's Fusion Dub, Electric Grape
Composite loop: EP foxy brush, chromatic, black/purple/blue, black STS trilobal dubbing, and black ostrich
Forward flash: Purple holographic flashabou
Collar: Black schlappen hackle
Wing: OPST saddle hackle, purple
Whoa. Caleb really knows how to maximize use of materials to get a fly he knows will swim well. Great stuff.
The real secret to successful ties can be found in that tallish bottle with the brown liquid inside. Always works for me, anyway.
Cool to see some fresh technique! Wrapping the eyes on last looks like a great idea but I bet I can eff that up real quick. Counter wrapping the hackle "wing" looks like it works real well, great tying vid! Bring this dude back for more.
Nice!!👍🏻 one thing i’ll add to get reverse wrap like you use around eyes when wrapping in grizzly; you can also throw in two half hitches, then reverse wrap. Repeat to continue original direction. Learned from Ronn Lucas many years ago on setting dee wings.
Peace
Where is Caleb Hannan these days? Miss his informative videos on Skagit casting and Intruder Tying!
Great techniques! Thank you for sharing your skills! Nice tie!
super dope fly dude !
Why counter wrap the schlappen?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great info on how to tie, but the audio needs some work, the background noise was terrible.
Way to much effort.. fish a poacher! 🤣
Good Point! I'll take either a Susqua or one of Caleb's flies! Hope you all are doing well Taben!!
