Great trout and arctic char fly.
an overlooked fly.
Pure Art.
Yes, that is correct.
nice!!
I really like these traditional wet flys but the wings are so hard to do! Mine always split apart when I try to tie them in. Will keep practicing though.
Great video and beautiful pattern. Tim, 2 questions if you have a few minutes, first, is there a set(ish) given rule regarding the width when cutting each feather, for this particular pattern & size you’ve suggested 1/4”. What if say the hook was a size 10 or 14 or even a 16? Secondly why pull up after your first pinch wraps when securing the wings to the shank instead of tying down to the shank? I get that that the thread will still tighten but is there any particular reason? Your advice would be appreciated pal.
My rule of thumb for cutting wing segments is to go just shy of the hook gap length. This way you get consistency between different size hooks. As to the second question, pulling straight up on your tying thread after the second loose loop will cause the first loop to close down on top of the feather segments and compress them on top of the hook shank. It takes some practice, but it is the best way to make sure the wing segments are compressed evenly, directly on top of the shank.
tightlinevideo That’s great. Thank you for the explanations. Unfortunately I’ve no dressers guilds anywhere remotely near me so all knowledge is gained through RUclips and the limited hardback literature I currently own so I do appreciate the help and advice. Fantastic channel and extremely helpful to folks like myself
matching feather meaning on the opposite wing?
In some of your clips, you use a special tool for cutting your tying thread. Please, would you recommend where I could buy a similar tool? Thanks in beforehand.
