Mr. Flagler, as a new fly tyer, many thanks to you and Tightlinevideo. This video is nothing short of amazing. Your calm and in depth instruction is perfect. After watching this I immediately subscribed to your channel. Your teaching style will definitely help me to understand and improve my tying skills. Thank you and God bless.
Absolutely the best tying videos I’ve seen on RUclips.
Great camera work, dialogue and explanation, identifying components by brand, size, etc. Thanks!
Great job as always. I started learning to tie in the late 70's. There were very few resources back then. Now you just search RUclips and instantly see an expert tie a fly! So much easier!
I’m getting a strange sense of déjà vu from this
This is a perfect way to tie a bugger! I've never had one last more than a couple fish and a day of fishing when the wire is all that is holding the hackle in place.
I’ve been tying my buggers for years by counter wrapping the hackle with wire back up the body and for me they last more than just a couple of fish. I use brassy size wire and have even lasted a day of steelhead fishing after catching a dozen or more on that one fly. I think the trick is to use a chenille that is fluffy enough so the hackle and wire will sink down in the fibers away from the teeth of big browns or steelhead.
Speaking for myself only, that color and Gold bead , chenille, hackle except for my preferring a cone is the most productive bugger I’ve ever used. Your tie is is a good lesson in method.
That's a great looking Bugger, Tim.
Exactly what I've come to expect from tightlinevideo. Thank you for yet another amazing pattern!!!
i'm a new tier, so, thank you for that lesson, I really appreciate it!
Tim. That is a great Bugger variation and just how I like them. I’ll try this pattern out in some different colours too. Thank you for another one dude.
Never had much luck with the olive WB but love a black WB built just like the olive on you tied.
These videos are the Best and the main reason I got started tying my own wooly buggers. I fish mine on sinking line and strip the bugger back, there's no doubt when you get a strike it's almost like bass fishing I Love it!
mohunter68 Hi, I don’t know about bass fishing as I use the same method hunting for wild Steelhead trout in NZ. When a large fish hits one of these flies it just about takes the rod out of your hand! I nymph upstream and bugger down, great winter fishing. Harera...
I like using wire in place of thread to counterwrap the hackle
Nicely done.
Your videos are superb
Loved it, look forward to trying me own!
Excellent tying
Amazing
very nice fly
Good tie! You should do a video on darth baetis!
High Mr. Flagler, what type of hackle is that? Hen saddle or rooster saddle, or rooster cape? I'm trying to figure out the difference. Thanks!
I usually add a small drop of UV resin at the tail wraps of thread for protection. I might consider using a colored resin for next year's spring trout run and see how it goes. My summer fishing is usually small native brookies if I am targeting trout, in waters where a woolly bugger really shouldn't go.
idk, ive caught small brook trout on clousers and sex dungeons
@@flyfishingalabama8363 In water that is only 5-8 inches deep and 2 feet wide?
Hey guys, great video! Any links available for your tying materials/feathers/etc?
I like to run one thread of the sparkle down each side
I really enjoy your videos. I’m very new to fly fishing and really enjoying attempts to tie flies. I’ve just been using regular fishing hooks and this kit of materials from the 80’s probably that was my dads... I’d really appreciate any advice on hook/material brands as searching google/amazon is overwhelming... thanks for all the tutorials though! Really appreciate it!
I’m sorry, paying closer attention you are more specific about hooks, I just don’t understand all the numbers beyond size.
love you carm voice... ever did any adds?
I don’t use cheneile with my buggers. And I counter wrap copper wire
I get a sense of deja vu watching this.... on a different note, you think that some day you may make a video on the matuka streamer?
I reckon! I come from NZ, home of the matuka, and those buggers are tricky to tie!
Great Video! Loved it! What size gold bead did you use? What brand as well? Thank You again for a great video
Bead: Gold, 5/32-inch
Would it be a bad idea to make the body and tail a different color?
Nope. I tie a lot of uniform colors, and a lot with black tails.
I use this exact bugger on my favorite waters here in Mo. and I create my own color combos by adding a small strip of yellow maribou with the olive and it's called John Deere pattern where I'm from. I catch the fire out of trout everywhere I've used it. I also change the bead color as well and I've found that a fluorescent green tungsten bead works very well with this color combo. Don't be surprised if you are the only one using this color and at times you will be the one yanking them out while the action has stopped for everybody else.
Surprised to see a hook with a barb...thanks for the video.
I'm at a loss as to why you pull the ends off of the marabou. It seems to me that it eliminates the naturally tapered ends of the fibers, but maybe that's what you want. Inquiring minds want to know.
Hey Johnnie,
Marabou is an effective material because of the way it moves in the water. the thin tips of the feather fibers don’t respond to the water in that same lifelike way, therefore he plucks them off. So in this case the natural taper isn’t beneficial.
Is this not an old video?
I use dubbing for the body and wire rib I really like the haire ice dub
Smallmouth killer
this a great variation on the bugger and I like your method of tying , but I feel I should point out that the chicken that the hackle comes from is a GRISLE , a Grizzly is a bear , sorry .
That's the Wooly Bugger that a friend of mine has won a few 1st's and 22nd:s in the local Trout Derby which has had up to 385 rod's in the water. I don't want to be a copier and came up with my own version of a wet fly. I knew I could win the derby as I outfish him most days unless he uses my Fly. Sure enough I won the Derby and had an incredible 6 trip run with an eight a nine abd a ten pound Rainbow catch and release. Yes there is a better fly byt U I want $10,000 for my pattern. I applied 50 year's of ny own experience from Sunfish to Tyee Salmon. Having been a commercial salmon fisher certainly didn't hurt. I know good luck getting $10,000 for a fly well a dozen but includes boar motor custom gooj and catch rod holder's plus instruction. Or good luck catching a double digit trout. Just saying.
bruh.
