Omg, my favorite colors too👀
You are an amazing inspiration to all women! Ty for sharing your passion!!

[Gwosts]

The attention to detail is magnificent!

[annieayers]

Thanks so much for your content! I really enjoy the asmr aspect of your videos. I especially love when you do the long writing intros and extended material displays with the paper background. I hope you consider doing that again!

Saw you use a whip finisher in another video. I've never learned to use one. Would love to learn it. We are missing our coho here.

[anav]

…..and I watch til the very end every episode

[JustOverlyExtra]

Please make a frog 🐸 next!! I find your videos so peaceful and mesmerizing to watch ❤

[ryanwarkentin]

Amazing work as usual! Ik you probably get this a lot but do you think you will ever sell your flies on your website?

[ping]

also where's the intro?🥲 i love your whispering for the intro everytime🥺🥺

[waitherandungu]

Hey... love your videos so much.. what camera and lense do you use??

[MrSuperJensen]

It is very pleasent to watch your videos, just the silent tying, other people just talk loudly all the time.
I love that you show every item you use, before you tie them on.
Kind regards 🙂

What’s the story behind the names? Is a steelhead psycho prince an actual bug?

Btw, LOVE the videos!

[robertperman]

Yea, but does it catch fish or just scare them? Tight

[gogodooshoo]

I have no idea why youtube recommended your channel to me, but I’m not complaining ❤
May I ask is this for fishing and do you really use them? Cuz they’re too pretty to be in a fish’s mouth i must say 😂
I imagine you have a wall of flies in display haha

[lilwayne]

Nice.. but only one minnow we used here...i don't know how to name in english
