- Today we are going to be tying a squirmy worm fly! This “fly” flat out caches fish! Best fished after a rainfall event when waters are high, and worms are swept into the current for hungry fish to feed on. It’s a common pattern that many use, however, this one holds a secret most people don’t know about! Give it a try! #flytying #flyfishing #relaxing

We have created a discord server (discord.gg/Ww7aDnaMgF) based on popular demand. This server is a community of fly tyers where they can interact, teach, learn from, or get inspired by others. This is a great place to connect with like minded people, help others enter the hobby, and progress you fly tying skills. See you there!
Hello, quick question: can you put uv resin on the body to strengthen it so it could take even more strikes? Would that cause the worm to look weird when glowing? Not the wiggly parts, just the part of the hook.
I think your link to your discord is just a link to the actual discord site... Can I get an invite to your discord plz? TIA
I got ticketed by the warden on the Penobscott for using this fly in the fly fishing only sections. He claimed it didn't resemble a fly and was considered a lure...still baffled by it
Take it to court
I agree with Nick. Show this video as your evidence, case closed!
In my mind if you cast it on a fly rod it's a fly. Lures are heavy enough to cast on regular tackle. That's what I'd tell the judge, unless they have specific fly rules already published that the fly violated.
Edit, I just looked up the difference between a fly and lure and it has to do with weight, not pattern or design. I'd find it on Google and print it for the judge.
It’s not a fly, FFS.
A number of years ago, I contacted the Department of Inland Fisheries if a Gummy Minnow would count as a fly. A member of their law enforcement contacted me and said because the materials are built upon the hook by hand, not molded, it counted as a fly. I printed that email off and carried it with me when I was fishing in Maine. Squirmy Wormy is no different.
Coolest squirmy worm I've seen!
By far that's what I was thinking
So far I have been digging all your videos, they're the fly tying equivalent of Binging with Babish. Well done!
This fly is in that grey area between what is considered a fly and what is considered a soft plastic. I'm not a fly angler I am a lure angler, but it is my guess that here in the UK some fly fisheries may not allow flies such as this
This could be really good for steelhead if one was to use glow red. Looks like a great trout and pan fish slayer!
What a simple clear tutorial, very nice take on a squirmy worm!!
Thanks Joshua, glad you liked it!
Amazing looking fly! love the colour!
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent. I have good success with any San Juan worm type fly. Thank you.
Neatly tied, kudos!
I don’t even fly fish,just a damn interesting video,man.
You make this look extremely easy,especially for your first time.
Just kidding 😂
Glad you enjoyed it!
Now that is super cool. Thanks for sharing. #Flies
Where can you buy glow in the dark worm material?
I use this trick. Cut a piece of heat shrink 1/16 tube to 1/8 inch and slip it over the worm and hook. Hit it with a heat gun to shrink tube.
Ohh that's a great idea! Thanks for mentioning it never heard of it before
Killer pattern! What size bead/hook are we looking at there? Thanks!!
Do all squirmy worm flies glow in the dark?
Awesome vid bro
Hook?
Veryj nice. 👏👏👏👏👏
very nice
What is that material? Looking real good
Cool worm ...where to get squirmy worms?
Wow nice 👍
Thanks Saja!
I tie them almost the same way but wrap the body from the excess material of the tail tie in. What is the benefits of tying in the body again? Just curious if they hold up better over time.
I do it because it looks cleaner. I find if I tie in the tail in then use that to wrap the body often times my tails stick out to the side. Not a big deal just an ocd thing
one assembly pass, the head is yellow?🤔
Rest in Peace Biggie
May I ask what the thread wrap is please 🙏
Its a White Veevus. I forget the Size but you can check what it was. I showed it at the start of the video
@@MainelyFlies Thank you kindly good sir 👍🏻
Hey man huge fan how much on average are your flies on your website also how would I rig this like weights or naw
Depends on the fly really id say the average is $3-3.5. A lot of what I tie has tungsten so normally I rig one heavy fly (like my stone fly) and use a smaller one as a point fly such as this one.
@@MainelyFlies thanks a lot man keep up the content I might buy soon what would you recommend for like murky Indiana fishing 🧐
How do I order the squirmy worm.
There are two kinds of lures in the world lures that catch fish lures that catch fisherman
I’ve fished the squirmy wormy so many different times. Oregon, Colorado, California, Washington, Idaho-
I’ve caught sucker fish off of it. Never a rainbow or brown. Not even an over eager cutty.
Bass will look at it, if you pull it past a strike zone they WILL take it, but they will hit a leaf on a bait hook too in the same situation.
Over all- waste of space for nymphs and streamers like Buggers and Princes that catch across the world.
Worms DO catch across the world. BUT the trout learn very quickly they are dangerous and stop taking them.
So it’s a wacky rigged worm
Very nice, can I have a free sample please? ;)
Maybe I'll do a giveaway soon
No secret. Everyone I know has some version on this in their fly box. Weighted, unweighted and every color you can think of.
You clearly missed the secret!
Hmmm would not call that a fly but ok.
Nice jig you tied there. Not a fly.
Nope….you crossed the line there. Not a fly…..a jig! Not that I disapprove… looks killer. But you guys are such “purest” … let’s be honest here.
i'm not that old school, if I can make it in the vice thats good enough for me. Never really understood why people care. Don't like it dont fish it 😂
Ah yes, gatekeeping and flyfishing... Give it a rest dude, no one cares.
@@oly884 you did enough to reply. Just calling the fly fagz on their own ridiculous rules.
They are the first to tell me that fly fishing was ordained by god and anything else is barbaric.
As I said… I would throw it in a second. Looks killer. But its not a fly by your own prickish definition.
Jokes on y’all. You know that.
Its not a fly.
I'm not that old school. If I can make it in my vice i'll fish it
@@MainelyFlies old school glow worm perch bait
You're right, it's not a fly, flies are insects that have wings. This is a flyfishing fly meant to mimic similar prey that fish eat...
@@MainelyFlies It's illegal to fish that in fly-only waters in plenty of states.
Oh i didn’t know what what states? Here in Maine most euro nymphs dont fall under the category of a fly. However, I've never seen anyone get a ticket for it.
