As a new fly tier, your vids have made the learning curve so much faster and less frustrating, not to mention less expensive! Thank you
Yep I noticed a bunch of stoneflies on the rocks and the trout weren't biting. I switched over and put a Pat's rubber leg on and caught fish right off the bat. Thanks for this tutorial
Seriously I have spent so much money because of you😂. Fly tying is so addictive.
I hear you. $5 here $10 there.
Yep. More than 70 bucks to tie a copper john 😐
Thanks for the awesome new way to tie in thelegs!
Guide style is the way to roll here. Thanks TLV.
Really like the UV idea for attaching legs, I can see myself incorporating this in other designs, thanks for sharing this.
There are lot of good tying chanells, but your is the best for any grade tier. Thank you very much for all your effort and work.
Great step-by-step video,love the use of easy hackle pliers for doing the lead wraps,great idea,I coat the hook shank with flex-seal before I tie my lead on seems to hold it in place better.
Best and easiest way to tie this fly. Thanks!!
Nice video! I always love the fly tying videos! Keep em coming!! And keep up the good work
Tim thanks for this video. I love the technique for the rubber legs!
Splendid video, as always!
That's a great tip for tying the rubber legs, thanks for that.
I've never seen such a method. Cool!
As usual, a great video. If I need to learn how to tie a fly I always return to your channel. :)
EveR since I started tying this pattern a few years ago, it's been a top producer in my fly box anytime I'm fishing water with stones.
Also, really liked the legs idea with the Bondic.
Cheers
Very nice Tim, think bass will love them as much as trout do! I use this method to put legs on my ant flies. I glue on heavy thread legs and then coat them with a bit of UV resin to stiffen the thread and hold the legs in the positions I want. Hank
I tie a lot of flies with rubber legs and I like the uv glue trick. Thanks.
That is a really awesome fly! I can see this working for some wasp flies.
For a virtually tack-free and affordable resin, try Solarez. It comes in thin, thick, and flexible formulas and is available through Hook and Hackle Company and I believe Feather-Craft. You do have to apply resin and deal with a separate torch, however.
Nice one good , like the way you do the legs
Wow! Pretty slick. Much better than cussing at the rubber legs! Thanks.......
The UV resin is an awesome technique.
That is awesome!
Very SWEET !
Absolutely ingenious way to secure the legs!
Really clever idea. I did discover however you can't do this with silicone legs. Probably should have known because I use silicone spatulas for glueing up woodworking projects. Still, great idea for other materials
If I don't have the UV resin and torch, could I use drops of zap-a-gap instead?
muito bom..
Can you tie a bumble bee? I enjoy learning from your video since you say everything you use an give tip since i am new to tying
Would a traditional "hot glue gun" be enough to hold the flexi on there? It's just for the initial hold job, and seems like a more economical approach. (since I don't have the uv glue)
Thanks a lot. Good video.
Very easy pattern. Tell about your resign and UV torch setup, please!
The resin and torch are combined in one pen-like tool, which is very handy. It is called Bondic and is widely available both in brick and mortar stores and online.
Thanks! Will give it a look.
Where did you get your UV torch with the cement on the other side? I cannot find one like that.
That pen that you use is awesome!!! Where can I get one? I cant find it anywhere. Thanks for the video.
Ace Hardware had one the other day
Tim, what is the UV applicator/light you use in this video?
Well I'll be darned...not buying these when I go out west this year lol
Great idea except my Life Flex leg material won't bind w if cement. I'll try real rubber.
i have met the guy that made this fly. he lives near my uncle.
I don't understand the point of tying in the antenna the length of the hook shank, and the tails half the length. On the natural, the tails are longer. I did notice you trimmed the antenna at the end, but still at least as long as the tail. Wouldn't it make more sense to get the length of the antenna right from the start?
Great video and instruction. Thank you. I will tie some up using this method. Unfortunately, I do not have UV light but will try with superglue instead. Thank you for posting
What kind of bobbin do you use?
Half Hitch Mag by Rite Bobbin. Tapered stainless tube, nice weight in hand and adjustable thread tension, works great.
+tightlinevideo thanks!!
Awesome 666th like 🤘🏾🤘🏾
This is like common core math why are you making such an easy fly so complicated
