    “Imagine a whip finish on that bad boy!”
    I was really looking for the finished fly satisfaction Cheech. You’re lucky I have a good imagination! 🤣

      I did too but I thought the whip finish was a bit big!!

    Great tip on burning the end on EP fibers. As for using the thread to split a tail , Tim Flagler had a "One Minute Tying Tip" awhile back showing the same great technique. Thanks again for the Tying Tips series.

    I love these videos, and the production value. The overhead shots really help me see what's going on...as well as getting to see Cheech's soft delicate hands. I agree with other comments about how to handle Gummy Minnow skins. I see other fisherman cleaning up on mini jigs some days, and I want something that has the same action, but not as heavy to cast.

    Keep doing what you're doing! Love these skill builders, great to see content directed at helping people become better tyers in short form. So nice being able to send these to people who are having trouble with technique!

    A fourth way to split tails is to create a small thread dam at the back of the hook. The larger the dam, the larger the angle. Tie in your tails on the hook eye side and you can reduce the angle by adding wraps towards the bend. Works great for biot tails too!

    • @FlyFishFood

      Many ways for sure, but thread dam builds bulk too much IMO

    In method 3 of splitting tails if you use yellow thread, it could simulate an egg sack making an Adams fly the Lady Adams😊

    Could you show how the skin on the Gummy minnow is used. Great info put out in every video. Thank you.

    • @FlyFishFood
      @FlyFishFood  4 месяца назад

      I’ll start practicing. Those are TOUGH!

      Thank you. I'm trying to tie a realistic looking minnow. A fellow member showed a pic of one he tied, but for certain reasons, he won't explain his process. He has a craft fur body and tail, with a sagging shad style body, covered with the skin. I tried and made a mess of it. Will be looking for your video on how to use the skin. Thanks. Really enjoy your informative tutorials. Eric.

    I am seeing a lot of that Smhaen bobbin … Also what happened to the C&F Design vise? Keep up the great work!

  • @mattritch56

    Any tips for using the rotary function on your vice? Sometimes it seems my hook shank is too high or low and also I don’t know what to do with my thread bobbin - I’ve tried the cradle, whip finishing, extra turns and I’m not sure which is best. Also, sometimes I don’t know if a material should be turned with the vice or by hand. Are there any rules or principles you guys keep in mind that guide you on when to use the rotary, how to use it, and which way to turn it? Anything would be helpful. Thanks.
    Love the skill builders

    UV resin, set the tail and then flash set the resin

    • @FlyFishFood
      @FlyFishFood  4 месяца назад +1

      Resin sinks. Better to just learn to do it with thread.
