This is about as close as a fly can get to looking like a vibrax, which is good, because vibraxes work better. I’m an asshole, just so you know.

Dear Dave,
Thanks. I am just getting started and you have taught me a lot already. I think that I will really enjoy this.

what season is this fly good for? 🙂
man, your flies are awesome!
I’ve already used couple of self made and they are quite durable.
hi thanx alot 4 this video , it help me alot.
Very clear, and more importantly, concise.
Hey dave you should make a dvd and sell them. All videos are great
Hi dave,
I am 12 years old and love fly tying i started out two years ago. All your videos are very informative. Thanks
hey david and the team thank u very much
Thank you for the lesson.
thanks for the great videos David. very much inspiring me to start tying my own flies, great way to relax.
Is there any chance that you could tie us a pike fly.Also is there a certain kind of feather needed to create a hackle on i have tried doing hackle’s with wood pigeon and magpie feathers and both did not work.I would be greatful if you could tell me what kind of feathers are best for creating a hackled fly.
This is a true art in it’s self i have just mastered fly casting,well the fly land on the water now and not in the trees.I have been getting grayling and wild brown trout so i will 100{3295056c9ca42e03df4d94feaac0847f4dfe1a41b9bfdb90d7a726607f8c5ffa} be tieing some of these flys.I was wanting to ask if there is a immatation for a Pedagree chum mixer for carp fishing one that will stay a float for some time.I have been useing cork ball’s to some sucess but i feel something a little lighter would give better presentation.
my dad took me fishing at walton hall today and i used this fly
I just did this one and I use my fingers to finish, to me it’s easier.
love your videos – thanks. What sort of varnish do you use? I’ve seen people using nail polish (what I’m using) super glue, head cement,…. getting confused on where/when to use each type of finisher.
you can whip finish with your fingers to, i find it easier than with the whip finisher…
purchase a whip finish tool, as you will find it soo much easier than using your fingers
for all those begginers who want to know how to finish off the fly you will first need to purchase a tool called the “Whip
finnish, this saves you using your fingers and makes it alot easier. Good Luck
im 10 and i can fly wooly bugger all the nymphs and mayflys and streamers ^_^
Go to your local flyshop or Bass Pro Shops and see if they’re doing a fly tying class. Most places do them for free, hoping that you’ll get hooked and buy your materials there.
Learn a simple fly like a wooly bugger and practice it until they look like you could sell it in a shop. Then start expanding and practicing. It’s not nearly as difficult as most people assume, the hardest part for me was learning how much pressure to apply on the thread without breaking it.
Good luck!
start out with nymphs and streamers…they are easy i didnt like tying drys at first cause they looking like poo then i got discouraged and almost didnt want to tie..if you do want to start out with drys do mabe grifiths gnats cause they are easy
awesome!!!
compliment for the dressing and the song…tool the best of progressive alternative math metal
Wow! Flashy, lots of movement, fast and easy to tie…you sold me. Silvers are just starting here in the Puget Sound area. Gonna have to try some of your “crack”.
@robinjob000 Just tie some up man! Easy. Good fishin!
I want to buy one from you, that is a promising Lure!!
Very cool! If this is a fly that rides on the bottom with the hook up then it should have a down turned eye or no turn.
I guess so. And thanks dude.
Good on you. Most people apologize and conform. Anyways, nice tying, Looks like it would catch its fair share. Good video, 5 stars.
Right-on. Yeah, in southeast AK. Should I catch a steelhead today or a king salmon? What a tuffie 😉
Hey buddy thanks alot for coming back a year later to tell me that AGAIN. In case you didn’t get this before, I don’t give a fuck about how it is ‘supposed’ to be. It’s just a fly dude. it rides hook gap down anyway. I don’t fish it, and this video was not about a fly, but having fun with my camera. Get over it dude! And go fuck youself 😉 Whew.
You don’t use a salmon hook that way – unless you are an idiot. The hook has an up- word eye and a specific bend – thus it is meant to ride hook down!
What a bunch of hillbillies!
he tied the barbells like that so its hook point up tard
nice and shiny! wonder if great lakes steelies would like it!
Great video and nice editing, I’ll be fishing this pattern out of the queen charlotte islands this summer. Your in alaska I’m guessing eh!
nice xmas decoration 😉
no really nice tying
I’m loving the striper right now, living in southern Cal for the time being. I’m float tubing it on Silverwood Lake. Trout plants are starting up so the hawgs will be coming out from the deep.
God I miss catching stripers. King salmon have nothing, and I mean nothing, on Morone saxatilis. Fuck king salmon. Do it up.
A green or a pearl body tied the same way looks like it would kill stripers. I like the simple tie due to my skill level and for more time on the water. I might even experiment with a spinner blade on the front of this one.
prison sex 🙂
it was fun to make. thanks.
great job on editing that vid!
That my friend is a $24 vice. I have no idea what kind. A no-name prob. It was a big step up from my original, $12 vice. Which worked fine. BassPro is wicked slow shipping to Alaska, I hear you. Cabelas is fast as shit.
it’s Prison Sex. thanks.
that’s a basspro supreme rotary vise right? I have the same one……it took them over a month to deliver it to me but it was worth it
whats the name of the song. great fly
