Great pattern. Great instructions. I've tied flies for fifty years. I learned some new techniques in this video. Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you, Tim! I've been anxiously waiting for this one since watching you tie it in Marlborough.
Not only being a long time watcher and long time imitator of your videos, but I continue to find wonderful adaptations of your versions. You got me into fly tying and let me enjoy an even deeper appreciation of fly fishing than before. "Long time watcher.....First time caller" Thanks for all your wonderful work! (Also) I like the touch of the "TLV" to the tying supplies.. Great idea for subtly putting your trademark on your amazing tutorials! THANKS AGAIN! (from Montana!)
I was about to tie this fly, based on another video I saw. I'm gonna re-think my approach based on your video. Thanks!
Tim,
Great bass fly
You have taught me to tie almost all of the flies i tie! Thanks for the amazing videos!
Love the vids! Keep it up
Very well done!
YEEESSSSSSS! Been wanting you to do this one!
I've gotta tie up a few of these, thanks for the video.
Great mod Tim! Sorry I missed you at the Jersey show.
awesome stuff!!
I think im going to have to make a mini version of one of these whenever I get into tying flies. Looks like it would be great for catching bass and trout.
I am going to try this fluorescent orange to mimic ghost shrimp in the surf. Thanks for sharing!
without the wire rib doesnt it come apart easily?
Also, one variation I like is to substitute the collar (saddle hackle in vid, marabou by J Barr) for 2-3 turns of cross-cut rabbit strip. And again, zap a gap before wrapping the strip increases durability.
I want to thank you for bringing this fly to my attention. So far this year I've caught a 5lb snakehead, a number of 18-20" smallmouth, and a 24" rainbow on this pattern, with plenty of smaller fish mixed in as well. Chubs, suckers, sunfish, largemouth, and browns have all eaten this for me too. It's truly a fantastic fly. Rust and olive have been my favored colors. It looked like you had a black one at the beginning there, along with one using the weighted baitfish and sculpin heads. Do you tie those on a jig hook as well?
Love Barr's flies and this pattern especially. Species caught so far on this fly: bows, browns, cutties, largemouth, smallmouth, carp, catfish (only catfish I've caught on a fly), and some misc trash fish. I will be targeting Bulltrout later this summer and hope to add them to the list too!
Another great video. What other colors did you find success with? Size 2 seems to be a great size already, but were there situations you needed to downsize to get takes?
