@@MichaelJensensAngling So I saw this video/comment six months ago when everything was still iced in here in Colorado, I tied a few of these. Today, in a remote canyon stream, my son was struggling. I tied on one of the Zulus I had tied. He hucked it into the top of a run that was in the shadows, he waited for it to drift into structure and sunlight to start stipping and BOOM. A large beautiful wild trout was soon in hand. So thank you for putting that in my fly box it landed a very special trout for us today. Godspeed to you and yours.
@@ernestezis9526 Thanks a lot for your feedback and the wonderful story. Thrilled that the good old Black Zulu did the trick again. All the best, Michael :0)
Michael Jensen awesome! I've got to read the description better, ten feet of mono and no rod! I was about the same age but at least I had a branch for a rod. I tried cotton string and a safety pin until a fellow camper set me up with mono and a hook. Caught 2 nice perch on a piece of beef fat off the dock at Old Forge in our Adirondacks. My first fish! I still have the black and white photo stashed somewhere. And you can tell by the photo I also ate the beef fat lol! Great story Michael 👍😎🎣
So... you had a branch... you tackle tart ;0) Cool story Joe. Wonderful to think that those first encounters with perch, trout, panfish or pike was the start of a long life waving rods over water. Guess we should be forever grateful for that first small... but important fish :0)
Hello friend, where do you live at, if you don't mind me asking . Your lucky that you have all these nice fishing to do. I enjoy watching you make flys and jigs some of them are pretty cool. But anyway take care and catch a good one for me. God bless you
Hi Jimmie, I live in Denmark, in the southern part of Scandinavia. Glad to hear, that you like my videos. Take care my friend. Tight lines, Michael :0)
One of my all time favourite flies, especially when we were kids fishing the hill lochs. A Zulu and a Butcher were all you needed
Thanks for your comment, Robin. You are right. A black Zulu and a Butcher is a nice pair to have in the box for trout fishing anywhere :0)

It's all you still need!!!
You are not all wrong, Shane. The Black Zulu is a workhorse in any water with trout and grayling. Tight lines, Michael :0)
