Do you need some eyes for tying Crawdads/Crayfish, Shrimp, Crabs or other Crustacean flies? Then this video is for you! In this video I make some DIY eyes out of materials that I bought from Walmart. This just shows that you don't have to spend a ton of money on pre made eyes and you can make hundreds of them for very little cost. The black glass beads that I used were $1.74 for 500 and the spo...

If you are having trouble getting your hands on fly tying materials due to location or bad online descriptions then this video is for you. My name is Andrew I am a fly fishing fanatic from Arkansas. I have been tying flies since 2010 and I have been fly fishing even longer. I created this channel to help those that want to learn more about fly fishing. On this channel we discuss all things Fly ...
Just crawled a Michels and found beads, chenille, scissors, tweezers, wire cutter pliers and storage boxes and thread. Going to see how the tying materials work.
Cut the collar off🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🎣🎣🎣🎣
Dollar Tree eyelash yarn and chenille is pretty amazing stuff
I live in Arkansas!! Which region? Do you ever go the Little Red?
During my childhood I lived in Southwest Arkansas out of Murfreesboro where I originally learned how to fly fish from my dad. When I graduated HS I moved to Russellville. When I lived in Russellville I would go up and fish the Little Red. However, I mostly fly fished for bass, crappie, and sun fish when I lived in Arkansas. Now I live on the planes of Colorado where I continue to fly fishing for Bass, crappie, sun fish and now carp and trout.
Can you show some of the foam flys that you made
Yes, I can. I keep hoping that I will get some time to make a video on what I tie using those craft store supplies. Just to let you know some of what I tie: sunfish patterns that require foam, as well as mouse patterns, poppers, sliders, gurglers, chubby chernobyls, and I will also laminate the foam together with 3m spray adhesive and make bodies for Moorish Hoppers and such.
Late to the table and just subscribed, sometimes we overlook the things we can use, and a good imagination can help but being thrifty is the way to go, after all the fishes cannot tell if a fly was tied with the best AAA grade hackles or something basic. I think it is a case of designing stuff to catch the angler's wallet in most fly trying emporiums.
I agree, some of what I see tied seams wasteful and like most things anymore it is designed to catch your wallet. If you want to you can also give Temu a look for some fly tying materials they seem to have a pretty good selection and at very cheap prices.
@@thewoodenflyllc7591 I have recently been converted to Temu and have some lures and fly tying stuff from the site. At first, I was sceptical, but after a few deliveries I am won over.
so are you using normal sewing threads? i am all about cheap. when i see people throwing about half of the elk hair on an elk hair caddis my inner poor kid flips out
Yes, I use whatever thread I can get my hands on that will work for what I am tying. If you have more questions ask away. Thank you for watching have a good day.
@@thewoodenflyllc7591 do you find them able to hold as tight as the thread meant for flies? i live in southwest louisiana and i have zero fly shops. baton rouge and shrevport is a long way away
Thanks for the helpful information. Im a novice tier and need to practice various pattern to get them the way I want. I end up cutting the materials off the hooks and trying again. Using the materials you mentioned makes this affordable
Glad it was helpful! Good luck tying!
Nice 😁
Thanks!
I love finding alternatives to fly materials. Crazy how much farther your money can go when you don’t buy materials in 2in x 2in bags 😂
Right! It is ridiculous at the cost of those 2x2 bags for what you get. Fly tying shouldn't cost people their entire budget. Thanks for watching have a good day!
Are you going to make anymore videos?
Yes, I am. I am just very busy right now.
Yes, I do plan on making more videos. Thank you for watching have a good day!
What kind of thread is that ...and how does it compare to regular fly tying thread
There is a variety of thread types and thread thickness. The only time I notice a difference is when I am tying small stuff like zebra midges and I need the thread to lay as flat as I can get it.
We never have fantastic deals like those here in the United Kingdom.
I am sorry to hear that. Keep an eye out on yard/estate sales. Someone may be getting rid of something you can use as flytying materials. Have a good day and thank you for watching.
Great video! I did a video on alternative materials on my channel Shorty on The Fly with a slightly different approach. Great stuff, my friend!
Man, you have material to tie flies until you get the age of 150 😎.
Ooo yeah! I also tie for other people so it is nice being able to get materials that don't cost an arm and a leg! Have a good day!
Andrew do you have a video on Fly tying using yearning.
I don't have any videos on fly tying earnings as of yet. I don't really make that much tying flys, my client base is just simply not bigenough yet to have any kind of income on it. However, I do enjoy tying/fly fishing and I enjoy helping others out that want to learn. Thank you!
Interesting. I like it
Very cool
I am glad you liked it!
Very nice.
Thank you!
@@thewoodenflyllc7591 you're welcome
It's amazing what you can find at Hobby Lobby and Walmart. I'm retired, living on a limited fixed income (i.e. poverty) So getting the most for my buck is paramount! I've bought big bags of feathers for $4 that would have cost $50 in a fly shop. You have to pick and choose materials a little closer, but it is much cheaper. The fish don't care where you bought it! Do yourself a solid and check it out.
I am glad my video has helped you out.
Great tutorial, thank you!
Thank you! Have a good day!
Great job!
Thanks for watching!
Great idea thanks
You bet!
My constructive comments (I'm subscribing)... I'm at the 5min mark, and I'm at the spot I care about... The bit I need I'll figure out as I'm watching, so that probably cuts off a bit section of the start.
Thank you for the comment! Have a good day!
Glad I found you Channel I shop hobby lobby Walmart Michael’s and Joanne I make crappy Jigs that are killers with the Chanel from Joannes . hooks from Walmart I use Sally Hansen’s fingernail polish and paint them even make my own eyes with materials from Hobby lobby it’s nice to buy stuff and no spend a fortune and actually catch fish on it thank you for your video
I am glad you find the channels and hope it helps you out.

I just found your channel and enjoyed this video and the Crappie Jig fly you made a few months ago. Looking forward to seeing more videos.
I know it has been a while since I made a video I have been very busy. I am looking forward to making more videos for you all as well.
Glad I found your chanel. I've just started tying and anything that saves me money is awesome, thanks from California.
Thank you and you are welcome.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀!
This is making me excited to tie flies. I've put it off because of the initial cost. I'm happy to find that flys can be made from cheap craft supplies.
I am happy to help! Have a good day!
