Fly tying is indeed the anglers art! The proportions are masterful. I am hesitant to even say this, but as a fly tier since a boy I'm 63, I started because the flies I bought did not stay together they would come apart from one end or the other. I ask this for practicality's sake. why not use heavier threads to attach the loops and switch to finer denier's for the dressing itself? Is it just for the video's ease? I don't tie commercially just to fish with and my ties are always with super glue and Kevlar or as heavy as available for the under structure or to spin hair. Your video's are superb, but I just had to ask because I have hooked into some large fish and have not had a failure of the hook loop from my shanks. regards Dan Wight.
how durable is the black hackle? i bet counter wrapping it with a small of fine wire would increase the strength; especially after a few fish. Great fly though, I plan you utilizing your recipe in the near future. Thank you.
Really nice fly, I am trying to tie these on tube flies. I suppose I should put a little weight to mimic the weight of the shaft. Right? otherwise the deer hair will make it ride too high. I am asking not telling I am no expert. I have still much to learn. All the best, Sean
Thanks for your kind words. it is a extremely effective fishing fly. and yes for me 8/0 is enough but it is individual what kind of thread you use of course.

really helpful, many thanks, beautifully done
+Philip Fairchild Good you can use it. ;-) sorry for the late response but I just came back from BC.
Such a nice fly! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Steven Thanks a lot (y)
I would never want to use that piece of art! Just to good looking.
Ohh to have a box of those babies in my pocket and a fortnight on the Skeena!!
Beautiful fly! I'd be afraid to fish it after all that work.
Puro arte, gracias Smhaen.
+Enrique Santiago You Are welcome ;-)
nice brother very nice you tying,thanks, congratulations from brazil.
Hi Danilo. Thanks for the kind words :-)
Nice fly! It would have looked nice with some dubbing after you put the eyes in. Purple or black.
looks lick it would be a killer fly for any big game species
Make it look so easy. Maybe it’s the music. I would eat that
Really beautifull and eye cathing colors this blue. (Or teal?)
And tied as well.
I quess these flies also work for pike and other predator fish.
Hi Sportman-un thanks. You can give it a try :-) maybe you dont need the led eyes if it is more low water you are going to fish.
great vid. wish there was a quick materials list, gonna have to go back through and write it down
Yes I agree with you it is missing. I will try in future to follow up on this. thanks for your comment.
Hi Edwardo Butt it fish so perfect that you need it, in your box :-)
thanks for the comment.
Sweet work!

+Phillip Lekanof Hi Phillip The hackle is ok, but as you already say, a small rib can do it god of course.
Your purple grizzly really pops. Great color. May I ask what brand it is? Your purple marabou also looks high quality. Great video.
Thanks for the kind words. I have colored the feathers by my self. ;-)
@@SMHAEN Wow, nice work!

Hi Sean. Yes the weighted eyes are very important.
the purpose with the intruder fly is to get it down quickly.
good luck :-)
this really is one of the most pretty and super effective fly. Which 8/0 thread is strong enough to spin deer hair?
Thanks for your kind words. it is a extremely effective fishing fly. and yes for me 8/0 is enough but it is individual what kind of thread you use of course.
great job .. thanks
jjjerbear777 thanks. You are welcome ;-)
