How to tie Mayfly Nymph with lot of movement
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2025
- when we talk about mayflies, most of us will think of one particular specie, ephemera danica. I rarely imitate specific insect, since there is rarely real need for it, but this one i like a lot.
Danica is living under the sand, phase we cant imitate, but when they start hatching, they swim up and become an easy prey. Due to significant size, fish will eat them pretty much always.... easiest way to imitate those swimming movements is to use materials that are soft and which will move in softest current. CDC and partridge suggest both colour and movements. For presentation is best to combine dead drifts with soft twitches to suggest its struggle to swim up to the surface. If the hatch is in its peak its better to use lighter variations of the same fly, with or without tungsten.
I hope you enjoyed this video, if you did consider subscribing.

Great tutorial, tips, techniques, and cat ;o) Thanks for showing the dubbing sequence. You have awesome ideas, I think my fishing will improve as a result, thanks...
Thank you, i am preparing one with more visual dubbing preparation. Hope u will like it too 😃
When fishing, focus more on presentation than pattern. 80% of situations adequate presentation is the key
Hey Joe! How is it going?
@@Oholisfliesandfishing Agreed - presentation is key but the fly has to swim correctly to trigger the bite :-)
@@hankvana2149 part of the presentation for me... right depth and behaviour... sometimes its dead drift, sometimes sloght twitching, pulling up to the surface... then size (general colour... it comes last for me). Not very often is the pattern that is the key.... but sometimes it is.
@@hankvana2149 Hi Hank! Things are good. Have those wildfires in Alberta affected your air quality? I could smell a funky smoke here in NY even before I heard about the fires. Then the skies were kinda hazy, made the local news.
Wow!...that's a great-looking, lively nymph for May fly season ...thanks for sharing Vladimir...appreciate this design a lot...it just looks right
Thank you so much. It worked so well for me. Cheers 🍺🍺😀
Tried this fly a few days ago late in the evening when there were mayflies hatching but no rise. Very large trout smashed it so hard it broke my 4lb stroft. Gonna tie some more and up my nymph line to 5lb flourocarbon. Brilliant pattern. Looking forward to using it when Danicas show. Thanks for educational tutorial.👍
Glad to hear such feedback. Thats really rewarding for me. Thank you so much for letting me know it did well. I used it with great success with lenoks here in asia and browns in serbia. Cheers 😃😃🍺
Excellent pattern dude. Thanks for sharing another one.
Thanks.... I had a wonderful time fishing lenok trout with it. Check out videos from asia 😀
Very nice Vladimir!!! Again, excellent techniques, explanation and use of materials. Many tiers use CDC because it is "popular" to do so, you have incorporated the fibers to take advantage of its properties in a way that makes sense and will enhance the impression that the fly is alive. While I like and use conventional hares-ear and pheasant-tail nymphs but I strongly favor flies that have a two-tone body (dark on top, light on bottom) that mimics real nymphs. Like you have done, I reverse-tie in my legs so that the butts help build up the thorax - I always wonder why most tiers add the legs last and struggle to trim the materials and then have to hide the cut ends with dubbing. The best compliment I can give to a fly tier is that their patterns are "well designed" to fish properly - you obviously think through what you what you want in a fly and then select materials and techniques to accomplish what you intend. Thank you very much for posting your videos! Cheers! Hank BTW, my "dubbing dispenser" is lying in my lap, purring, as I type. There is enough fur on my shirt for two or three flies - time to give her a good brushing and harvest some of that material LOL!
Thank you Hank. I try to figure out the easiest way to tie my flies as well as to make every bit of the pattern with purpose. This contrast is relatively new to me, i noticed that Lance Egan is mentioning it few years ago... so he is to blame for it 😂😂.
Our dispensers are the best...always fresh fur 😀😀
Buenos días Vladimir, me ha encantado esta ninfa de dánica, sin duda la movilidad que debe tener debajo del agua la hará ser muy pescadora, por cierto tu 😻 también me ha gustado y el dubing que proporciona tiene buena pinta. Saludos 🍻
Thank you so much for your kind words. Glad you like cat's dubbing. My friend has russian blue cat...also amazing material. Give it a try.
All the best
Vladimir 🍻
Awesome lesson and I love the fly. Thank you sir
Thank you very much. Glad you like it.
Like 67 👍 realistic tricpotero nymph good video
This one caught me so many fish.... You can try it
I’ve used beard hair for a nymph and it works 👌🏼
Ahahh i used beard for ribs 😀😀😀
@@Oholisfliesandfishing 😂😂🍻
What can be used if no partrige feather can be found. Nicely done
Thanks, Brahma hen has some very nice mottling. I would use it all the way. And its much cheaper.
Basically any soft feather is ok.
👍👍👍💯
Thanks my friend 🍺🍺
Opet si naopako vezao pokrov😂😂😂
Ups, i did it again 😂😂
@@Oholisfliesandfishing k'o da si Britni Spirs 😝
I got me the same cat. gonna harvest some dubbin also. Cat makes good dun
You will love your cat even more now 🤣🤣
To bad cutting my dog would leave patches..😔
Dont cut. Use comb 😀😀
Одличан видео, методика и избор материјала.
Hvala puno. Bas ovu nimfu sam koristio u par navrata u klipovika gde pecam lenoke po kini. Super radi muva bas
