Very Very helpful Kelly and Jeremy. Most books don't cover this as they were written long before these birds were around!

Thank you Kelly and Jeremy, this is a great series of videos. I'm happy to hear you are doing one on soft hackle as well.

Thanks for the explanations! I have so much to learn about the difference in feathers..but you make me believe I can with these videos. I tie flies that catch fish, but really want to up my game. I remember not long ago thinking I wouldn’t be able to learn to cast a fly rod either, and won a contest last year. (I’m not too keen on competitions though). I love the saying : If you don’t want to learn something, no one can make you.. but if you Want to learn something..no one can stop you. Your information is very much appreciated! Thanks Kelly, Jeremy and Slide Inn crew. 👍👍 🪶

I dig everything you do Kelly, Just an idea, it would be great to see a full view of of your tying desk. Not sure you can but I think alot of folks would lol just sayin' and always look forward to all your videos

Kelly could you do a show on where the capes, necks, saddles, etc. come from on the bird? I think I know but I'm not at all sure I do. Keep the good stuff coming.

Thank you for this series. It’s pretty clear from your description that the American series would be the right ones for most streamers, but what would you use to tie flat wing streamers? The feathers in the American series look wider than those more slender ones used for flat wings. Stay warm & healthy.

Thanks Kelly. Are you going to go through the different uses you have for the chickabou? BTW, why do we see Johnny in Brian's videos, but he won't demo a Kill Whitey? :)
