Love these skill builder videos. Your explanations are spot on, easy to follow, and so informative. So much easier to learn with a video demo rather than reading about each technique. Thank you for doing this for the fly tying community.
Love ❤️ your vice, purple the color of kings and sir you are a. Funny how the (BUGS), big ugly guys can tye such beautiful flies!!!. I'm 73 years old this year,when I retired I said I would learn to tie flys the right way so far through videos like your 's I've become a much better tyer. Thanks for your time and knowledge , good health for you and your's Dave Hughes 🎣🤠 Rolla MO.
These skill builders are definitely a big help for those of us inundated with trying to absorb the many techniques used for tying the same pattern when we watch multiple videos for the same pattern. The best thing I appreciate is your explanations which helps me understand each technique quickly so that I can effectively try all of them instead of trying to figure out how each video ties theirs. Keep ’em coming so I can keep coming back for more.
Thanks for watching!
I have had problems with this for 40 years and you just made it easy. Damn where were you 40 years ago. Thank you for you vids.
I was 7 years old. Probably in kindergarten for year two.
big jay oakerson looking good this week
I'm still learning how to and feathers and other materials. Please keep these skill builders coming. They really are teaching me.
I live all the skill videos. I've been tying for several years and never stop learning. Thanks for putting these together.
Just remember. If Brighton can do it, anybody can. He’s really good now!
What did the trout say when he swam into the wall???
Dam!!!
Sorry Cheech, you ask for a joke! Thanks for all your videos! Great job as always.
10/10 dad joke
I look forward to these each weekend. TY.
“If you don’t have that tied in really tight, you’re gonna ruin your fly.”
“Get ready for that, it’s fun!” 🤣
Well done. Thank you.
Thanks! Great initials
Thanks for the videos Cheech!!!
Even though I'm an experienced tyer I still pick up great info from these, keep them going!
I’ve learned a lot doing these as well
I've been tying for about six years and I thoroughly enjoy and learn from these tips. Each of them builds a great skill library. Thanks, Cheech.
Thank you for giving some attention to soft hackles ... much appreciated and needed.
I click the subscribe button every time!
The top view was a nice touch on this! It really emphasizes bobbin manipulation, which is really important for thread control and is also rarely talked about.
Thanks. That’s exactly why we do it. There’s a LOT going on
As a rookie tier I enjoy these skill builders!
I’ve been a rookie for 24 years now.
Great tutorial! Helps me very much!Thank you!🎏
These videos are very helpful. I wish I had them when I first started tying some years ago. But even now they provide a good summary on techniques. Thanks for posting.
Never too late to learn!
Thanks. These skill sessions are great. Much appreciated.
First video I've ever seen someone using the smhaen pro. Love that bobbin. Thanks for the tips guys
Keep the skill tips coming! ❤
That was good information thanks for skill builder
thanks for taking time out too do the SKILL BUILDER you are the MASTER FLY TIER.
Thanks!
Great tips, thanks
That's friggin' cool!
Great tips!
Nicely done and thanks😉👍
Great video thanks!!
That was great, thanks for doing these skill builders, i really enjoy them.
Amazing brother ❤❤
Do one on cutting your own foam and making extended body’s
Thanks for all the videos you guys make. I am glad to support your shop in Idaho Falls since relocating from Utah.
I LOVE this series of skill builders. They are very helpful. I do have one request. Is it possible to zoom in on the fly more, especially for skills needed for smaller flies. Thank you! Keep the skill builders coming.
We like to show hands on this one. If you’re on your phone, you can zoom the video with your fingers while you’re watching
I love the skill builders! There's something for all levels.
The first part of this video would have been particularly useful with a little bit of magnification.
Yeah. We’ll do some other vids with more zoom.
Cheech you are awesome! Thanks for putting these Skill Builders together. Your techniques have helped me a ton at the vise and on the water. I hope you guys plan to expand the skill builders to fishing, rigging techniques in the spring and summer, fall too! a few more ideas for you: tying in rubber legs, parachute posts, deer hair wings. Keep them coming! Thanks again!
Yup. Fishing version of skill builders coming soon
Great series guys. Perfectly timed for this one too as I'm tying a bunch of these up today.
Post results on the Uncle Cheech FB group
This was excellent, thanks! I just discovered swinging soft hackles a year or two ago when I moved to another part of the country where the technique is commonly used, and love fishing them.
Very overlooked technique.
Ther is a other method explained by Davy wotton, ty the hakle in straigth 90°degrees from the shank. wrap the longfeather but first create a little dubbingball then wrap the hackle. Dubbingbal has a view advantages creates bulk in the fly witch shortens the fiber and gives the hackle more movement. Great video's, it will help a lot of people.
How about some paired wings like on a traditional wet fly? Of all the skills I think it’s the most difficult and rather than have a lovely looking fly mine look like I stood on them… would be grateful to see if there is a better way to get those instagram looking wets
This will be on my docket.
Great tips couldn't zoom #10
freaking awesome
NICE!!
Good stuff. English or Grey partridge are not easy to get here in the UK now but they make some fantastic flies. Lots of old spider or soft hackle patterns from one skin. These techniques mean you can still tie small flies with bigger than usual feathers and get great results. Keep up the good work boss
Thanks Keith!
Ha ha! I live in Norway and am still waiting for the partridge-skin, my tackle-dealer promised me in early 2019...
@@exilbayer6377 In the UK most shoots in the season voluntarily do not shoot grey partridge so the dealers dont have the birds to be able to supply full skins. French partridge no problem. But the Grey partridge is soft hackle heaven. Five years waiting is a very patient man indeed.
@@keithpassant5063It´s not patience: I know, it will never arrive...
Getting materials here isn´t so easy: I started tying in 2018 and since then I try to get moose mane, a ringneck-skin, klinkhammer hooks and so much more...
@@exilbayer6377 there is a great supplier of natural materials in the UK. Look for Cookshill Flytying Materials.
These are great. Thanks. I just got a bag of partridge feathers and am scared of how friggin small they are.
Great series, I'll be tying flies and out of nowhere comes something like, "Cheech just did ... and his came out great. Six flies later mine start coming out right too. Thanks. I have zucchini fingers too😮
Love to hear this.
So good. Go Red Sox.
I love your Skill Builders. I save them so I can review and practice at my vice. Do you have any tips for peacock twisting? I think I saw one that folded the butt ends over themselves to secure them better, but I cannot find it!
Anyway, thanks for sharing your expertise!
We can cover this. There are some tips that will help
Just got into tying last year and have watched a number of channels. This particular series is fantastic. Its nice to see one technique or step rather than an complete piece being done. Explanations are thorough and demonstrated well. I'd like to suggest when possible to get closer or somehow get a larger image of the work/technique being done. I understand getting into the macro range severely limits the depth of focus as well as gets in the way of the process. Just a thought and keep 'em coming.
Yeah. It’s a fine balance.
We need fly tying skill builder for tying with foam in different ways.
Yesssss
Thanks, just subscribed! Love your videos! Maybe a similiar video on different ways to tie parachute posts for dries?
Good idea!
Great series, especially for a fella like me who's new(er) to this game!
I'd like to learn and/or know what to do with, what I see, as "waste" or leftovers - tie a pattern and then have some of the bits and pieces left over (chenille, feathers, etc...)
I've tried making smaller versions or "Franken-flies" haha but I'm asking myself "now, what do I do with all this stuff?!"
Waste bugs are fun! As long as they’re fishable
Thanks. I enjoy these videos, they are helpful. Interesting how quite often the products you tagged and highlighted are "out of stock"? Tight lines
Yup. They sell really fast for sure. We order most of them weekly so they are updated regularly.
When and where do you fish these? Do they mimic emerging insects? I could see them representing my minnows in some instances. Thanks for the tips.
Don Pedro. El soft hackle is a great swinging caddis.
Hi - thank you for this. I am just getting into tying, and just before watching this was thinking about thread color and what are the basic colors to have. Is there a particular reason you are using red? Is it sort of a hot spot addition? Thanks again!
100% for visibility on the video, but hotspots are a great addition to lots of flies.
@@FlyFishFood Thanks for the quick reply!
Great Skill Builder - just a couple of things when using over-head camera shots - please don't let the bobbin swingin in the wind - almost makes some sea sick -- when tying with something like the greyish partridge could you put a piece of white printer paper over the grey base? Will enhance visual of feathers. Thanks Your explanations and teaching is great.
Yeah. We try to manage it but it still happens.
Wouldn’t mind the Green (MAN)version of that vise.
I didn’t know they had a gender but I’m going to look under the base first thing in the morning.
technically you yoinked the stem out of that dubbing clamp.
yoink is the opposite of yeet
I’ll yeet what I want to yeet.
Thanks for letting of use your stadium to win the Super Bowl. We buried some red/ yellow confetti in the end zone.
Who is “we?”
The top view didn’t work for me on this video. The fly and hackle just blended in to the vice base. And I just watched the bobbin move around the entire time. I think a side view would’ve been more beneficial
I hear you. Still important to show top view to see what hands are doing. You can always pinch your screen to zoom.
Looks like your Beard .
