- I tie the Takayama Sakasa Kebari. It's one of the most popular Tenkara flies from Japan. This is my go to fly for 90% of all my fishing. Every time of year and every species of trout and pan fish love this fly. For more details and to order go to Tenkara-Fishing.com
If you add a little bit of “ glue “ to the loop of tread just before it closes tight you will avoid getting it on the peacock and your fly will last much longer then a day! Nicely tied! I will make some to try for the local trout!
Well done demo. Nice Fly. I bet that would catch a Brooke or two down here in the Smokies.
Very nice Paul! Thats the first time I have ever watched somebody tie a fly.It looked like fun! I plan to have my own Tenkara pole this year.I hope to see some more vids on it soon!
Thanks Tom. Working on editing another right now. Tenkara will be perfect in the Seven Devils this summer.
Neat and clean fly accurately tied, not like others do sloppy jobs
work of art, love it
Thanks. I like the tip re winding the peacock herl around the tying thread. Been tying for many years but that is a new tip for me.
David glad to help. It certainly makes the herl a lot more durable on most flies.
I love to tie 1 or 2 material flys. I like Tenkara but not fully versed in the method of fishing but it works.
Awesome Paul. It's nice to see a different fly is tied. I haven't tried Tennkara fly fishing. I tie my own flies as well for the other form of fly fishing.
Thanks RP. Give them a try, they will work with any fly fishing rig. Just do very slow, short retrieves and the hackle will pulse slightly.
Sounds good.
What size hook?
Paul, picked up some ring neck pheasant and tied several flies. A couple of observations: 1) you did not mention in the video whether to tie the hackle in concave side up or down. I tied mine in concave side up and struggled with keeping the fibers from tangling with the thread. When I watched the video closer it is clear that you tied in concave side down. Clearly makes a difference. 2)4 I acquired some Pearsall silk thread. Unfortunately it is very heavy thread when compared to the thread you used in the video and bulks up the fly more than I feel is proper. I then stepped back to using Ultra Thread size 280 which seems to work well. And a size 10 Umqua barbless hook.
This is great! Thanks for showing. I’m officially inspired to go tie a few before heading out for an early evening session.
Thanks, Paul
Very easy to see but to do ... thkx for share
Paul, I have to say that, for me, this was a difficult tie. I used Umqua size 10 barbless hooks both curved and straight shank. I also tied using standard red 280 Ultra Thread and Pearsall red silk as you did in the video. I do not see how you could tie using anything less than a size 10 hook. Anything smaller would make using the Pearsall thread more difficult than it is on a size 10. I found that wrapping the peacock hurl much easier by hand vs. wrapping it around the thread. Finally, I used partridge soft hackle, but I am not happy with the way it looks on the hook. Too thin. I will order a pheasant cape and try again. I hope this does not come across as overly critical, it was simply my own experience.
Hey Phil, Keep at it. These do take a good bit of practice to get a nice look to them...this is probably my 500th time tieing this fly. I tie the same basic fly down to about a size 16...the smallest I usually ever use. Check out my Akiyamago video...same basic fly with a dry/stiff hackle.
Great video! Being olde school, I have always loved a royal wulff. I can see a 'royal' TSK in my future.
Paul, other than the pheasant hackle, is there another hackle that you would recommend? Have gone thru my tying materials and found partridge and brahma hen. Thanks.
Hey Phil, most any hackle will work and no reason not to use what you have.
Paul, sorry to keep asking questions, but what exact part of the pheasant cape do you use for the hackle? Back, neck, rump? Thanks
Most of the feathers right down the center of the cape and off the shoulders work very well for this fly. But I also use the ones around the "ring"...the small dark blue ones are great for very small flies and the large bushy ones closer to the tail end are good for larger flies. You can get a ton of flies out of a good quality Pheasant.
Hey Paul, when you say this is your go to fly for most of your fishing, are you referring to the style of fly using the same colors or the style of fly with different colors of thread and feathers? Thank you, and please note that I enjoy your laid back approach to tying.
Cat. It's that main one in that this fly as tied in the video is about 80% of what's in my box and usually on my line. The red performs great for me.
wow nice or what Kudos
what size hook are you using? very nicely demonstrated.
+Dave4234 M It's a size 10...they are a fairly wide gap hook and the #10 makes for a pretty large fly. I often tie them on a 12 or even 14 as well.
Nice job. Thank you.
Are you tying left handed; I am not a pure left handed person ( I know; weird) & haven't quite figured out which way to go
+Larry Glatt Good catch, first person to do so.
+Paul Gibson (Arrowhead Equipment) Funny that I did; but people like myself tend to notice 'technique' when we are in the early stages of tying. Sometimes I do it left & vice versa; not fun. Thanks for all your help.
I thought you were tying right handed but had the camera placed behind the fly. I rewatched the video and now see that you are tying left handed.
Enjoyed this video.
Thanks Don.
Paul Gibson Watched this again, and probably will again lol, good stuff Paul.
Paul, is the pheasant hackle from a cape?
Hey Phil, yes it is.
@@Arrowhead-Equipment thanks. Just wanted to make sure since there is a plethora of "pheasant" labeled items out there. Looking forward to fishing this fly as soon as the water gets safe. Too much rain here in Virginia this year.
Paul, what size hook are you using in this video ? out standing
Hey Dave, It's a size 10 if memory serves. I usually tie them in a 12 or 14 in most hooks but liked the size of the 10 in this hook.
Awesome, I'm gonna tie some of these.
Очень хорошо ловит ! Большое спасибо
How effective are Tenkara Flies on stillwater? Great video; thanks
+Larry Glatt They work great for me. Take a look at some of my other videos....like the Hansen Lake trip. Only fly I fished with was this one. All of the warm water species love something that looks buggy and moves...and I have not had any trouble catching loads of trout with them in Alpine lakes here in Idaho. Just fish them like a small streamer, slow twitch as you retrieve them and the hackle will pulsate.
Thank you Paul
Works great here in Nebraska for warm water species.
Where did you get the vice/
I was gifted it in 96 or 7 from my grandfather who had used it to tie when he was into fly fishing in the later '70s.
Paul, what size hook is that
That is the size 10 hook.
