i am only 13 and i know your videos have helped me tie hundreds of flies after school for the past 3 years

Love the recent competition-style fly tying videos!  Please do more of these!

[bngsee]

I am really enjoying this recent series of flies drawn from the competition circuit. Very simple, slender, beautiful ties.

I like your method of starting wrapping the wire.

I think the Walt’s worm is the epitome of necessity is the mother of all inventions. It was solely created for weight but it is now one of the most consistent flies ever tied.

I've found it's easiest to use a bobbin to load up the lead free wire (a cheap one preferably) and take wraps with the bobbin. It makes it much easier to pack in the last wire wraps without any waste because the weight of the bobbin sort of stabilizes the wire.

My rule for the walt’s worm is keep bulk as low as possible. No wire wraps. Minute dubbing noodle. I use uv grey ice dub and dubbing from the face of a hare’s mask.

I wrap these with copper wraps and use aa a scud pattern. Very helpful stuff Tim

Would Hare-Tron dubbing be similar to what youre using here?

[MrBlairhernst]

[erniewalker]
