    Thank you for posting this video! I've just recently started learning fly fishing and tying. The area I am in for now isn't much into fly fishing and most of the flies I'm seeing tied don't really resemble any of the insects here in the lakes and streams, and are more geared to trout streams. The second fly tied definitely resembles in ways several of the insects I see in and the water ways here. I'll be definitely be learning tying while making some of these, then come nicer weather will be putting them to use learning fly casting. I should probably tie up a good 20-30 to start....have a feeling I'll be catching quite a few trees and hearing the whip snap behind me to start with....but then again, may pick it up right away.

    Mr. McKee, Howdy; I've been tying for maybe 10 or 11 years now, mostly Soft Hackle and wet flies. This is the same yet very different all at the same time. I' watched your Materials video and you as well as a few other folks that tye jigs all use the term Hackle on several different types of feathers. To me a Hackle is mainly used for the collar or for palmering through the body like in a Wooley Bugger. When you purchase the hackle that you clip the tip out of and then cut the 'V" s out of is that Saddle hackle? Sure looks like it although most times it shows up it's difficult to tell. Sorry about the length of this, chuckle. Have you ever used any materials from the Fly Tyers Dungeon?

    • @stumphunter100
      @stumphunter100 2 роки тому

      You are correct in the use for hackle in flies being a collar or hackled through the body like a wooly bugger. In jig tying the term (hackle) is used differently than flies as hackle feathers (saddle or neck and salt water hackle) are used as a tail material. I do at times use some of my (fly) tying feathers to make a collar on a jig. You will find that most jig tyers never really get into the tying of flies with the right materials like a nice long saddle as the cost is more than many want to spend. So this being said while tying jigs the term hackle is the cheaper hackle feathers bought by the 1/4 oz most of the time. So the material video is showing materials mostly used for jig tying. I hope to soon do some fly tying videos as I really enjoy fly fishing. Thanks for the commit and question as I hope all of our viewers feel freely to ask any questions they may have. Yes Fly tyers Dungeon has some very nice material with very good prices.

    Good video. Became a new subscriber after seeing this video. Was impressed with the counterclockwise bobbin thread spin that assists proper material positioning on the hook. I have learned, however, that Dernier (210) sizing is not thread diameter, but it’s weight, in grams, of 9000 kilometers of a single strand (which doesn’t really tell you much except in relation to other Dernier weights, i. e., heavier than 140 or 70 Dernier).

    • @stumphunter100
      @stumphunter100 2 роки тому

      Thanks for watching the videos and subscribing. Dernier is weight which makes the thread bigger because of the weight. 220 dernier one wrap will place more thread on a jig or fly than probably 6 wraps of 70 d. Tie one size 14 fly and use 220, almost impossible because of the heavier weight and in turn the diameter is bigger. All this is kinda like splitting hairs in the details when size of thread used can make a big difference in the finished product. A spool of 220 is 100 yards and a spool of 70 is 200 . yards. It’s easy to get some confused with details and the reason I always use diameter.

    I do like squirrel tail fur. Your video uses gray squirrel. I’m wondering if you tried Fox squirrel. Larger squirrel, reddish/brown color. If you tried the Fox I am wondering what you think about it as a tying material. The fur on a Fox is a little denser and longer.

    • @stumphunter100
      @stumphunter100 2 роки тому

      Hey Ken, yes I do use some fox squirrel tails. Like you said it is stiffer but it at the same time has about the same movement as calf tail hair so it can be used in some of the smaller jigs/flies. I do use it in some of the large/larger flies like Lefly's Deceivers used for Salmon and Peacock bass.
