    I’ve recently been looking at variations of tying the MOP. It can be as simple or complex as you like, but I like your version with the simple addition of Ice and SwishersX Dub that gives the fly a bit of flash as well as a bit of extra action that the rubber legs adds. Cool. Thanks, James.

      I love to fish it stripped down when trying to "induce a take". The pattern in this video is more imitative and has been a staple when I used to guide Chama below El Vado. Many Northern New Mexico rivers support a healthy crane fly population and this seems to do the trick. Thanks for watching!

    I wanted to thank you for the "mop till ya DROP video. This 2022 February I got 66 trout on mostly Mop Files and Egg patterns taught by you and Huge on Trout video.
    So thank you. Colors were blue, black speckled,faded pink and magenta. Fluorescent orange was no good. Eggs were clown foam mixture,( multicolored)
    Keep on teaching please.

    All the professional tie flyers hate the mop. Mainly because it catches trout, cheap and easy to tie. You are using the best color. I use A black slotted tungsten bead.

    great video and i really like your attitude, laid back surfer fly tier... i have fished mop fly's at battleship rock (Jemez River),
    with great success. you use a cream colored mop for your flys. I have used blue, pink, grey, orange and black spackled (wife's rug)
    is there one color that is best or does it really matter to trout?
    love the videos

    • @AboutTrout
      @AboutTrout  2 года назад +2

      I use different colors but I love cream for the chama/Rio lots of crane flies. I throw a lot of chartreuse mops as well but if I had to choose one for NM waters it would be cream. Thank you for the kind words and checking out the channel.

    Thanks for comments. Check out brief mop history from New Mexico trout and others www.newmexicotrout.org/mop-fly-revolution/. macbrownflyfish.com/fly-tying/history-mop-fly-mania/. I enjoyed hearing you were on the Davidson. I'm in Asheville and fished it regularly in 80's and 90's. The fishing was very good for a southern stream. The 7:00 to 9:00 pm hatch and spinner fall was great. The river is not much anymore unfortunately.

    Shout out to La Virgen de Guadalupe! Orale! Nice, bro. Well done. I guess living where you are you have no choice but to bump up against some Mexican/American culture, might as well embrace it, right? I don't tie flies, but I use mops. :-) Not only do they work, I love they way they stabilize the drift on a tight line rig. The mop doesn't hang up much, so it just rides like a cushy pillow along the bottom, sliding over rocks and snags, also giving your dropper a nice drift.
