Step-by-step fly tying: The Beast by Andre van Wyk
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июл 2024
- Andre van Wyk, frequent star of The Mission, ties a “Beast” fleye - a baitfish/squid imitation invented by Bob Popovic, using his hollow fleye technique on a mono extension to create both length and profile for imitating extra large prey items. This technique is not exclusive for tying giant flies, and the mono extension has many applications in helping tyers get a little extra length out of even non primo bucktail, which is becoming increasingly more difficult to find worldwide. The hollow fleye technique allows for the bucktail to swim with a lot of movement, and very little weight. The Beast is mainly used for targeting large saltwater species, but has applications across both fresh and saltwater.
These are the materials used to tie the Beast:
100lb Mono or 60lb Hard Flouro leader
Hook: Ahrex SA270 #5/0 upstreamflyfishing.co.za/prod...
Thread: Semperfli Nano silk 50D www.xplorerflyfishing.co.za/p...
Hackle: Ewing White Hackle
Bucktail: White, Sand, Green Bucktail

This way of adding a tail & length is pure genius, thanks for sharing it.
04:05 - The moment I realized I barely know anything about fly tying. 😂 Thanks for the awesome demonstration!
Anyone attempting this for the first time, marking your mono at 1/2" interverls will keep you on track. I've tied hundreds of BEAST Fleyes and I still mark the mono.
Great tip. Thanks
A truly outstanding presentation. The best to date on the web. Great job.
Perfect demonstration and tutorial

WoW .... great video, I'm new to tying and caught a couple new (to me) techniques, you've got a great style and are very skilled.
I see some have asked what vise you have, pretty sure you said a 'J vise'. If you would please let me know I'd appreciate.
BTW ... REALLY like your octopus theme and ocean animals, anchor etc. Sleeves, really nice!!
Thanks again,

Hey Nick - Sorry delayed reply, I thought I had replied to this but can't find the reply, apologies! Yes it is a J-Vice which is made here in South Africa by Jay Smit. Amazing piece of kit.
Thanks for the comments on the tattoos.. I'll let my artist know, she'll be stoked! Thanks for the great feedback!
Cheers

You’ve very good technique. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Can I ask the name of the vise, bobbin holder and the scissors you use😁 I’ve watching tying vids for a very long time but I never see them before:)
Thanks in advance…
Hey bud - apologies late reply - The vise is a J-Vice - incredible piece of kit made here in South Africa. I use Raid Zap Xact Bobbins - I love the variable tube length, and the "grip" on the thread spool. Scissors I use are Fiskars EasiShears.. Have used them for a couple years now and incredible for pretty much everything I need scissors for! Hope that helps, and thanks for the comment.
Great demonstration and information ty
@@BucktailFlies thx
I love her mounting vice can someone tell me what brand it is and where I can find the same thank you
That's a J-vice. www.jvice.com/
cool video Andre, maybe do an overhead angle on the vice. Maybe something on a magic arm that you can move closer for smaller flies.
Thanks for the suggestion!
great look and great fly bravo someone could tell me the brand of his vise thank you
That's a J-Vice. www.jvice.com/
oooooooh! it's really nice to answer me thank you very much. I am French I will try to buy it from my country again thank you it's really cool
@@Mrkaraibfly de rien! Le J-vise est superbe.
Great streamer👍🏻
It appears that you are using small or medium size buck tail or is that just a part of larger buckt tail that broke?
Hey man - Not sure what you mean... Do you mean the actual tail, or the length of the fibres being used? The idea of this video was to try show that you can use pretty standard/short Bucktail and with the mono extension technique, create length and profile quite easily. If you mean the actual tails themselves, they generally vary in all sorts of sizes.. sadly access to the primo very large tails is very difficult these days for most folks around the world, so we make do with the medium/average stuff!
I don't get why use the mono extension if in the end you are tying it down to the hook shank anyway. IMO it should extend a little behind it... anyway, the end result looks nice but it would look almost the same if you just tied the tail to the hook shank in the first place.
What kind of vice is that? Ty
