very nice..i finish mine off with a few turns of a black schlapen feather at the head wrapped as hackle like on a wet fly,,finishes it off nicely...cool flies but a pain in the ass to tie thats why i dont tie em much..i just mostly tie eel bunts or small black flatwings for eel patterns
I like to use a 400-450 grain sinking line with a 6’ leader of 20-25 lbs fluoro and I love the reddington predator in a 9 or 10 wt for flies like these!
Just found this video despite posting it some time ago. Beautiful eel pattern and yea, it looks deadly for bass. Very nice fly.
Thank you!
That was interesting to watch ... I enjoyed the process of watching how these long flies are tied.
Thank you!
Wow! It is like a real eal! I think it will work great for golden dorado.
A dream fish of mine!

love your video, do you have a preferred rod/line / leader setup for throwing large flies
