I find putting the dubbing between the waxed tread loop finicky so I hang the bobbin and place the dubbing on the single hanging thread, give the dubbing a light twist with my fingers in one direction! Then I attach the dubbing spinner at the point where I stopped with the dubbing! At this point, I fold the bare thread from the spinner up to the hook forming the loop with the dubbing between it and attach and secure it at the hook! The weight of the hanging spinner makes this easy! Twist your dubbing spinner to form the noodle and wrap the body as normal! It seems much easier then trying to hold the loop open and poke dubbing into place for me! Nice tie and excellent pattern for trout! Tight lines!
BTW…palmering the hackle is not what you did! You made a collar! Palmering is winding a hackle from the tail to the head or head to the tail over the body as you would rib a fly! Often a rib is then wound over that hackle to secure it! Just so newbies are not confused by the terminology! Been tying for 56 years! Still learning new stuff! Tight lines!
I love you are using whole feather. Great concept!
Nice pattern
Sweet pattern
Darren can you make another go at this but only whisper? I feel like this could really pop my ASMR.
An ASMR fly tying series could be very successful.

Listening to you breathe and swallow makes it hard to watch the video.
I’ll hold my breath on the next video, thanks for watching! 😂
Today we’ll be tying Jack Gartsides Swallow
