A novel way to construct the head. I like it! Nice fly. Try Solarez Bone Dry for finishing heads. Very thin. It penetrates really well and a second coat gives a beautiful head.
Very nice. A lot more work building the head, but using dumbbell eyes instead of stick-on makes for a much more durable fly. The need to glue on eyes on these EP baitfish patterns is a weakness in my opinion.
Nice!
could you maybe tie a freshwater crab fly? I know you guys don't have them in the states but they're an important food source for many fish in south africa ( burrowing river crab)
Great video!! What vise you recommend for saltwater flies?
Thank you! I can't find my model, but my favorite brand is renzetti, they last forever and offer clamp and standing styles, I like a clamp so it won't move, if you travel the standing one is better. I've had mine for about 6 years now.
Irritating noise and no sensible narrative.
