Tying the Flashy Hollow - Pink Punk for Pike, Zander, Bass
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 апр 2021
- A recent version of the Flashy Hollow in colours I call Pink Punk. The UK pike and zander seem to respond well to some pink in a fly, or at least customers and I are confident fishing it. Who really knows!! It's not a long tie, nor does it require super long bucktail as we cheat a little.
Material List:
Hook: Ahrex TP610 2/0
Veniard medium lead wire to keel (make sure you tie in or glue)
Thread: GSP100
Bucktail in white and silver grey
Any synthetic in white (SF Blend or Deer Creek Gliss n Glint)
Hedron standard white Flashabou
Hedron silver Polar Flash
Hedron pink Strung Fuzzy Fibre
Bigstreamers dark grey, light grey, white nayat blended with silver and bronze angelina fibre
Erwing natural grizzly feathers (optional)
Eyes are 8mm silver flat eyes

Great pattern, simple but effective. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I appreciate the response!
Great design! I love this one! 👌
Cool stuff, as ever paul!
Very well explained. Lovely pattern.
I may spin up one for some bass.
Great video..well done mate!!!
❤ your streamers patterns ist the best
Very nice one again
Гарна робота! "Good job".
👍💪🎣🦈😍 Good job.
Definetly going to "trout adapt" this 1!!
Great video again, Paul. Do you always add weight to the hook? I think it might be the answer for your patterns that I’ve tied but mine don’t seem to sink too easily.
Quite a few of the patterns I tie designed to sink slow and fished in a sinking line. The little weight is to keel the fly, as most freshwater streamer hooks are fairly light wire compared with saltwater hooks. The weight just help the fly track hook down and not spin.
Howdo you soak your flies?
Like do you use warm or cold water and for how long do you soak them?
I use cold water. To dry in winter I lay them on the radiator. Summer outside if it's sunny. Sometimes I hang them, sometimes they lay flat and might need a couple of soaks to shape.
Хороший стример. 👍
Great video as always my friend. Question which of the gorilla glue do you use? Have you a link so I can see the correct one so I can buy it? Thanks 😊
I bought the last lot from Amazon. Look for Gorilla Crystal Clear
@@paul_monaghan thanks Paul will have a look and try it as I am getting allergic reaction to UV lately, my eyes starts burning and all, will give this a try. Thanks.
Hi Paul I an new to these styles of flies but keen to try scaled down pike flies for big predatory brown trout in my local rivers such as the Clyde.
Can you explain the differences between hollow tyings and bulkhead and reverse bulkheads styles please.
All the best
Graham.
I tie BULKhead in hollow style 99% of the time. The only difference with that and a standard hollow is that the bucktail butts are tied in long to create support and additional density. By doing so means the fly doesn't sink quite as fast as air gets trapped in the hair in addition to the butts being a little more buoyant. You'll see if you tie both styles.
@@paul_monaghan cheers
Hi enjoy watching your videos just getting into fly tying looking at the peak vice can you recommend it.
Cheers
Good cost effective vice. Used one for a few years until quite recently
Cheers
I’m just curious to they cost 💲
Amazing. Can these be purchased?
Closed currently sorry. Taking a break
My flies look like road kill but they are cool.
Can you do a video where you finish the heads with uv or Gorilla glue? That would be great

@@paul_monaghan Thank you

Hey Paul, I watch your videos many times and pick up something new to me each time.
One question I do have is, do you prefer to soak the flies and hang dry them before adding the eyes.
I realize for the purpose of the instructional video, you plow through and add the eyes. But, givin' the choice, do you prefer to soak them first!??
I always run them under cold water and dry them against a radiator first. It's because I usually tie in batches and in the habit of shaping them then. I don't think it makes much difference either way.
