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. Thanks for stopping by.

Love it! AC/DC was the first concert I took my boy to when he was 14. He's still a huge fan. Gonna tie this as a moment of that first concert!

Good morining Matt. AC/DC flies is a great idea. Maybe I'll come up with something. I saw AC/DC only once, back when Bon Scott was still around. Showing my age!

Two tips, one wet the marabou before tying in, tames the fibers and helps keep it from spinning. Two for the split JC eyes take a small amount of flex head cement or flex UV resin on your thumb and index fingers coat the eye by gently pulling between your fingers. This will mend the split and add durability to the JC.

This is a great idea! The fly looks great, too! I am commenting while viewing the video for the second time. I just noticed the background music. Led Zeppelin is on the list for the next list.

Awesome idea with the ACDC theme. I will definitely be working on something tomorrow night and sending it to you.

Nice! I like the curled hurl (say that fast five times). This will be a fun series!

[johngallagher]

Nice, it is very similar to the fly I used to catch my first trout at Fisherman’s Paradise when I was 10.
