Savage Flies is a project with the mission of encouraging and teaching fly tying to as many people as possible. The channel is named after one of my western Maryland homewaters, the Savage River. I've been uploading at least three new videos a week (usually Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday).
Thanks for stopping by. Please let me know in the comments if you have any tying tips you would like to share or if you have any patterns you would like to see tied here.

Very nice and simplistic looking fly. I was happy when you mentioned it having a mini-streamer resemblance. That was the very first thing that came to my mind when I seen it. Great video Matt. I’m slowly working my way through your channel play list. Another series completed. Thank you Sir.
Love simplicity. We often dress up the flies to suit ourselves and not the fish. KISS is what my daddy always told me 😉
You're absolutely right! Why would a fish ever eat a zebra midge?? There's nothing to it! But the work. 😁
This is the last one in the Dave Hughes series for me
Sounds like this one is a good one for beginners!
Oh yeah. If I'm tying a bunch of these for my fly box, and I get the material ready ahead of time, I can knock them out in 3-4 minutes each. And if I'm not talking to myself on camera. 😁
Great stone fly.
Nice pattern Matt and real simple.thanks bud!!👌
You got it Mike, appreciate you watching! Again. 😁👍
Great little fly
Yep, sometimes the simpler the better!
I like the simplicity of this one. Thanks for another great fly, Matt.
Thanks Debora! And as always, I appreciate you watching. 😁
Another great simple but effective fly, thanks! (Catching up on some of the earlier videos I haven't seen yet.)
Wow Garrett-- you're going way back! I appreciate it my friend. :-)
i enjoy the look and effectiveness of the splayed hackle tip wings, especially the grizzly. The bass in NY love to eat crane flies and that style makes a great imitation.
Oh yeah! My problem with crane and dragon flies when using hackle tips for the wings is that when wet they always stick to the sides of the body. I've tied a couple of beautiful crane flies that are only beautiful when they're dry!
Too true.
Easy looking fly Matt, will have to give it a try
Thanks Dave! Yeah, this really was an easy one. :-)
Nice Fly Matt, you make it look easy.
Mine keep getting a little better learning.
One question every time you cut the excess can you use it for other flies.
Thank Keep it Tying.
Pablo, absolutely! With good dry fly hackle, you can often get 2-3 flies out of each feather.
That's a Cool little fly Sir Matt. A question for you sir, grizzly hackle for sizes 12 - 20 what is better a cape or saddle and what quality. Which will give you quality and more for your money sir. I'm kinda stuck and don't know what to get I could use your help. Thank you Sir Matt as always You and your Channel are simply AWESOME..😁
Edward, great questions and I've got some thoughts. I'll email you after work tonight!
