Hi Steve. After searching through your videos it certainly does. 😃 This version was based on a fly first shown to me over 30 years ago for chasing sea run cutthroat feeding on chum and pink salmon fry. Keep up the great work. I really enjoy your channel and videos. Cheers, Phil
You certainly could. I was tying it as it was first shown to me over 30 years ago. Back then we used paint the eyes on as resin and stick on eyes didn’t exist. Cheers, Phil
That definitely looks like it would do they trick for Puget Sound Sea Run Cutthroat when the Chum fry are around. Have you had any issue with the tinsel getting chewed up? I'm wondering if a coat of thin resin on the body before the feather is tied in would be overkill? Cool pattern, Thanks for sharing!
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed the video. This pattern was originally tied to imitate pink and chum fry. Coating the body and sides with resin would certainly add durability. I stayed true to the way it was tied prior to having any resins available.
Hi Phil, Would you have any "words of wisdom" for a new tyer on material "rolling away" as I'm tying it in? Think things like marabou or things like that where the thread pressure pushes stuff away from me and it doesn't just lay down. Maybe I need to work more on "touching wraps" but thought I'd ask if you or anyone else had any thoughts. Thanks!!
Thanks. I am familiar with both techniques and most times I use them. Sometimes bad habits pop up when you are trying to work around a camera. 😀 Cheers, Phil
@PhilRowleyFlyFishing my apologies.The comment was meant for one of the viewers regarding thread control.Your work is spot on.Looking forward to your next post.
So when you start your fly, don't remove the tag. Leave it. That will omit you needing to re start your thread after finishing. Just leave the tag of your tying thread and use that. Hope this helps.
@PhilRowleyFlyFishing it's also a bit similar to a great seatrout pattern called the the storm fly except the wing isn't tied down at the rear of the body, i really like the way you brought the holographic silver up the sides, great pattern, I'll definitely be giving that one a shot, thanks for sharing.
Gidday Phil, nice work. Thanks.
Man, that looks familiar!😂👍

Thank you very much!..very nice!
Nice minnow.
Thanks, I am pleased to hear you enjoyed the video.

Ya that’s a nice minnow.
I suspect Tigers would find this irresistible, thanks for posting Phil

Sometimes counter spinning your thread will"hop" the thread rearwards.Practice pinch wraps as well 🐟🐟

@@danjost8797 No problem. Your comment had a couple of great tips.

I agree, but if you forget, his method is an alternative!
Latest comment meant for you.
Very similar to rogans gadget
I had to look that fly up. I can see the similarities in how the body is formed.
