Fly tying tutorial: EXTENDED HOLLOW FLEYE by Andre van Wyk
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 июл 2024
- Ahrex's new Beast Fleye hook, developed with the help of Bob Popovics, is ideal for tying large fleye-style patterns. The hook's long shank allows for more tie in points, and/or for bigger spaces between tie in points, resulting in a sparser, better swimming pattern.
In this step by step extended hollow fleye tutorial, Andre van Wyk (@BucktailFlies) shows how Ahrex's beast hook can be used to tie a large extended hollow fleye without the need for a mono-extension.

Late to the party as usual. Good to see you working on a long hook. I have a set of jigs 1/2, 3/4, 1 oz that have 7/0 and 8/0 hooks. Not so much the luxury of hook shank but more like, wth do I do with all this space? I've tied a couple of truly ugly overdressed things that look like circus wagons with clowns hanging out. Watching you gives me a better sense of proportion. Staggered bullet ties with shouldered feathers looks like a good thing to try in the midsection. Been using curled peacock hurl for the top line. Combed in squimpish would be a little more civilized. Always get something good from watching you Andre. Thanks. Looking forward to more late night karaoke on the backchannel.
Cheers Jim, appreciate the comments and glad you may have picked up a few tricks for your tying!
Stunning fly!
I've been tying for over a decade but always seeing new stuff.
Bet this would work awesome for smallmouth bass here in the Great Lakes.
Thanks for sharing!
ps I fucking _LOVE_ your magazine. Best in the business, no question.
Achieving bulk with less material along with some great tips ! Beautiful tie…. Thank you
Beautiful fly! Very informative…answered my question on the belly shape and the angle of the top! 💪🏻
Muito espectacular
unreal video, so well done! question for you on what bobbin has been nest to use with the semperfly nano silk? I have been wrecking some by nicking/ wearing channels in the tubes from the thread being so tough
Hey Chris - thanks for the feedback - Bobbin I’m using is the Raidzap Xact Bobbin - I’ve been using them a couple years now and honestly struggle to tie with anything else these days - they are perfect for the nano silk - no issues at all with wear on the tube. They have an adjustable length tube which I really like. They also grip the thread spool a lot tighter than most bobbins which I like too. Hope that helps
Nice pattern, hello from Puerto Rico!
Very nice, thank you!
Thanks a lot for sharing your work ! 👍
Nice job I'm likely to look into those tabs for eyes good tricks can make the fly thanks for it
Awesome ! So technic ! Thanks ❤
Awesome like always 😃🎣
Great video 💯🎣🎣🎣
Tight
Wauw ❤
I assume that these are saltwater flies? I don’t tie many streamer type flies.
So this is what thor aka chris hemsworth has been doing? very cool!
Do you use white tail for buck tail in SA? Just curious if you have an indigenous deer that works.
Hi Joe - we unfortunately don't get White Tail here in SA, so all our Bucktail needs to be imported from US/Europe. We do have a few local species that provide good hair such as Klipspringer as a replacement for Elk Hair, and a few others. Mountain Rheedbuck hair is the closest we have to Bucktail and have used it a fair bit, but its difficult to get hold of, and certainly not in anything near the quantities we'd need for tying regularly.
@@BucktailFliesRoger, just read your article about your buddy sneaking a ton end, fantastic. Bold photo by the way! I live in Montana, WT are everywhere here. I need to learn how to die fur!
sorry but can you explain why the whire is so thick on ahrex.
These hooks were developed to withstand a wide range of larger species, specifically being targeted with very large flies, mainly in saltwater so the heavier gauge hooks are a necessity
