I watched this again as this will be my next fly. My question is, are the front and back sections supposed to be the same size and shape? Also where in the water column is this ant supposed to be fished?
The back can be slightly larger than the front. As far as depth I've had the most success between 3 and 5 feet of depth, but that will depend somewhat on where the fish are feeding!
Just a few thousand, I better get started
love you kept the broken thread in there. great to know even pro tiers do that also from time to time
Haha! It happens more than you think! Thanks for watching!
Wow! that was an amazing demonstration of fly tying techniques!
Thank you! That's very kind!
Very nice tie. Having seen this fly in person first, and now seeing you tie it. I know I will add this to my box.
Thanks Pete.
Thanks, Ron! Definitely need this in your fly box.
