Your instruction skills not to mention your skill level is second to none.
Thank you so much!
You Sir are an expert not only in fly tying but demonstrating your skills. I will encourage every young person I know who is learning this art to pay attention to you. You're a great teacher and a hugh contribution to this amazing art from. Thank you
Thank you so much!
WoW ... such a GREAT tutorial, you make it so understandable and well explained not just how, but why.
The BAT fly ... brought tears to my eyes ! Just BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you, and I'm new to tying. I don't want to do crappie flies and jigs. Youu give me the confidence and knowledge I need.
thank you again,

@@nicholasdeluca3580 Thank you! That makes me happy to hear.
Thank you so much for the awesome tip! I have been tying flies my whole life and I have been trying to figure out a better way to make realistic wings. Now I can start making better flies,thanks to you, much respect to you
Thank you! It's just practice, practice, practice :)
Thank you for taking the time to post this video. I am endeavoring to improve my extended body Mayflies and this wing has always seemed to be fragile and non functional but your approach using different feathers and ca was new to me. That is a little embarrassing as I have been tying for a long time but one is never too old to learn new things. This dog has a new trick - thank you.
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
Thanks for sharing this technique. Will enhance anyones flies and enjoyment. All the best.
Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful work sir such an artist James
@@philipjones6083 Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! :)
You are a genius! Thank you for sharing this technique
Thank you so much! Glad you like it.
Keep them coming Jim there Grrrreeeaaatt!!.....As Tony the Tiger would say!!
Haha! Thank you!
Beautiful work! Thanx. Eben.
Thanks!
Thanks for making this video. This is the easiest way I've seen to make wings
Thanks Kevin!
Огромная благодарность. Крайне ценная техника. Благодарю и успехов Вам!
Make more!
Please.. Why did you stop man?
This was by far one of the best videos I've seen on flyg tying on RUclips..
Make more!
You'd be huge in no time I'm sure!
Make the next one a complete mayfly origami fly. Like the one you did when you tied the whole caddis.
I've filled my box with your caddis version.
I want to make a whole row of your version of mayfly origami flies too. But I need to see just how you make it.
Thanks in advance!
Thank you! Well, I will do more tutorials hopefully but I think I will go over techniques rather than fly patterns. But we'll see...
I just came across this fantastic tutorial. Your skills are incredible and the results are stunning. Thank you for making the video.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
I just had to stand from the notebook and walk this one off. This is THE technique what I was just hoping it exists somewhere. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much for those kind words! :)
Amazing……. Thank you for sharing that technique so unselfishly. It was greatly appreciated.
Thank you! You're welcome!
THAT'S not tying flys. THAT'S ART 100% ART !!!! AMAZING i don't want to fish with them. AMAZING BUD WAW
Thank you so much! Glad to hear it!
Excellent!
Beautiful work and so clearly explained. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much!

Thank you so much!
One great tutorial! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
That's exactly what I want so good thanks 👍 if i use flexible glue with the light i going to try it out
You're welcome!
Fantastic job how you can make the wing that way. Tight lines🐜🦗🐞🪰!!!!!
Excellent tutorial, thank you for sharing. I'm going to try one right now.
Thanks! Do it! :)
Awesome technique and great flies could you please show us a how to for that spent caddis in the beginning what a beauty
Thanks! No, I'm sorry. The wing technique is the same as I already showed and the whole fly is a display fly so not for mass production anyway.
Awsome technology, never seen this before thank you so much.
Thank you!
Please keep making videos! It's hard to find youtube content from really good tiers from Instagram.
Thank you! I will try to do that :)
Thank you for this video. I now have a new fly tying technique to practice during the pandemic.
Glad to hear it! :) Thanks!
Great Tutorial! Thanks mate
Great technique, thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Hello. I just discovered your channel and I think it's an excellent wing technique for fly tying. I'll try to make some flies with your technique. Thank you very much for the good explanation.
Greetings.
Please do! Thank you!
Excellent tutorial.
Thank you!
Absolutely Amazing my man 💪 😄 Beautiful.
Thank you so much! Glad you like it!
Nice tutorial!
Thank you!
Thank you so much, i have been trying to get to grips with the Wally wing all day. So many downsides to it. Right size, type and quill thickness. Then the lock on all that material, this upsets almost everything. Upsets me when the split goes wrong. This can be done off the fly, made in pairs, and locked in and posed as you wish. Tomorrow is a new wing design day.
Nice to hear! These can be tricky too but once you master it they are much more versatile. Also more durable!
Jeeeezz that's nice ! Could you share a link to buy the feathers you use? Im just not sure what to buy
A link is useless since I don't know where you live. Order from your local/favourite dealer who has Whiting Coq de Leon Capes. The color is up to you.
James just brilliant. Well done. Are they whiting coq de leon rooster saddles? I am going g to absolute copy you they are such great looking flies .
Thank you! It's Whiting Coq de Leon capes, not saddles. I haven't tried saddles but that could work too. You can use any feather but I think CDL is optimal due to the long fibers and thin but strong stem.
Loved your tutorial ! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you! :)
Класс!!!!
Fantastic information on wing making.ty
Thank you so much!
The bat is so cool 😀😀
Thanks! 😊
Very nice video! Could you please make a tutorial of the bat? It looks fantastic🤩
Thanks! Sorry, That's not going to happen. It's a fly just for show and not for fishing so I won't spend time on on that.
Great video. Thank you for your time.
Thank you!
cool manufacturing technology! thank you so much buddy!
Thank you!
James can you tell me exactly what I should be purchasing for origami wings. The packages I've been getting the feathers are very short and I am thinking I need to buy a full saddle. I plan on making plenty of them once I get started but I need advice as to what I should be buying. Thanks
Whiting Coq de Leon capes are really good. That's what you're looking for.
Well done! Your a very skillful tyer. 👏
Thank you!
Im going to try these wings for my crane flies!
@@jesusisalive3227 Do it!
Meu queridão muito lindo seu trabalho obrigado por compartilhar 😀👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😀
Thank you so much!
Perfect solution to create realistic Wings! TaL🙂
Thank you!
Very good demonstration, I might try it on my Daddies, but the big question no one has asked, do they inspire more takes than the the common Sedge patterns? Very well tied flies.
Thanks! Well, that’s a good question. Probably not. But I don’t know how to properly compare it. The fly that’s on my leader is the one being taken and I often use origami wings so they work. But so does an elk hair caddis. I guess it’s up to the one who is fishing and what type of flies he/she likes to fish. And the right recipe varies all the time. That’s the beauty of fly fishing :)
Good answer. My answer would be shorter- Who cares? This just looks like fun to tie, it's certainly unique and I have no doubt that it will catch plenty of fish. For me tying is half the fun of the whole f-f experience. For me it's yoga for the fingers and the mind; no need to rush.
Thanks, James, for sharing that technique; not everyone would.
Watt a nice bat . 😂 awesome technique
Hehe, thanks!
Great job
Thanks!
Mate absolutely fantastic video! 👍🏻
Thank you so much!
Thank you just what i have been looking for. Great video.
Thank you!
Super Idee, danke für´s vorzeigen .Werde meine Flügel jetzt so formen Lg Peter
Thank you!
Is it allowed to use such wings? Only joking, never seen anthing so natural. They started selling different tools for fixing wings in the 70s, but your flies James are just ingenious! / Hi from another Stockholmer :)
Haha! Tusen tack! :)
Love the demonstration, What kind of tweezers are those and what did you make the cone from
Those are just standard tweezers from a supermarket. You can use a dubbing needle instead and squeeze the stem between your thumb and the needle to get a soft bend to the stem.
The cone is a nozzle for silicone tubes. Should be available in most hardware shops. Just cut it. The point opening is about 3mm.
@@onceandaway Thank you, have a great and blessed day
Great tutorial, thanks for sharing👍
Thank you! 😁
Absolute Klasse , werde ich versuchen nachzubilden. Danke , Peter aus Hainichen Sa .
Vielen dank!
Excelente, impresionante muchas gracias por compartir
Thank you!!
Wonderful!
Thank you!
Wow
A nice fly but it seemed a bit complicated! How long does it take to tie when you got used to it?
I don't know which fly you mean since this is just explaining the origami technique. I can fold and tie in a wing in about a minute if I'm not too picky about every fiber being absolutely perfect. But I like perfect so I often spend a few minutes on each wing.
James what grade do I look for and what is the proper name of the feathers I should purchase. And are they called Capes or Saddles.
Whiting Coq de Leon doesn't have grades. I use Capes.
Thank you Sir. @@onceandaway
Fantastic technique and video! Do these wings cause the fly to helicopter during casting? Thanks again, Joe.
That depends on the position of the wings, how big/thick the are etc. But I'm mostly using them as caddis wings (like on the Fax Caddis or larger variants) and in that position I've never had a problem with it no matter the size.
@@onceandaway
Excellent. Thank you.
WOW !! After several attempts ,my flies come on almost perfect. Could you demonstrate some patterns. Thankyou, I will never do a Wally wing again...
Great to hear!! Well, I will hopefully get around to do some more tutorial but I think it will be about tying techniques rather than patterns.
Amazing, thanks❤
Thank you!
Can you send a link for the flies
Beautiful 🥰
Thank you!
so awesome and beautiful
Thank you!
So much to remember. You don’t have a book out that has this in it do you? Thank you. Tight lines🦗🐜🪰!!!!
No, I'm sorry. This is it, apart from some Swedish articles...
I am totally blowed out from your amazing skills in tying these insects flies. I will collect them not fish them
Hehe, thanks!
Great stuff!
Thank you!
Hi James, I was trying out one of your origami wings but the hackles I have aren't wide enough for great results...Are you using cock saddle feathers? If so, where can I buy the half and half capes that you have? I saw something similar on the Taimen website.. Do you remember exactly which capes you have.
@@consuelo1441 I mainly use Coq de Leon capes. But I guess saddles are ok too. The combo pack that I've got is called "CDL Versa pack" and has 4 half necks.
@@onceandaway Thank you for your kind reply...
@@onceandaway Thanks for the reply James. I have some similar coq de Leon feathers on their way... I have seen a few origami wing videos from different people but it is your video which has inspired me to see their potential... My attempts with smaller feathers (until the broader ones arrive) have improved and I like the results. Just for your information, I've heard tell that a British fly tier called Terry Ruaan was tying the Jens Pilgaard origami wing even earlier, way back in the early 90´s. He called it the ´improved wonder wing´.. The only difference was (as I understand) that Terry Ruaan tied the wing straight on to the hook as you do.
Very nice 👍
Tusen tack! :)
Thanks for sharing
Thanks!
Fantastic ! From Italy.
Thank you!
Nice video bro, can u make tutorial on how to make bat pattern
Thanks! No, I'm sorry I won't do that. I'd rather find other tutorials to post.

Awesome information there’s very little about the information out there thank again
@@robertschafer5728 Thank you Robert!
Великолепно 👍👍👍🙋♂️
Thanks!
Thanks!!!!
You're welcome!
It 8s not really origami but it is awsome 😀💕
Well, in fly tying it is called "origami technique" because it's about folding a feather but of course it's not real origami :)
Can you taught me how to make a bat， thank you。
How to make the wings is this video. A tutorial for the whole bat isn't something I want to spend my time on. I'm sorry.
Very nice but overkill for fishing.
Thanks! Well, each to their own.
@@onceandaway indeed my friend each to there own all the best my friend.
@@Loyalist-ul6qm Same to you!
That is how I do it...
Great to hear!
