Boogieman Fly Tying Tutorial
This is one of my absolute favorite streamer patterns. They are a pretty quick pattern, and absolutely wreck fish. This particular color combo is one of my favorites. I'm not sure if fish take it as a baitfish, crayfish, or they just see a blur of movement and instinct kicks in.
This fly is a staple Kelly Galloup pattern, and is worthy if being in every streamer angler's box. This tutorial isn't meant to be an exact replica of how Kelly ties them, but to show you how I tie them specifically for our local smallmouth fisheries.
Typically, I downsize hooks and run the MFC 7050 and 7052 for trout. You don't need the heft and hook gap of the B10S hook though I know many that use it.
I fish this pattern on a floating line when the water is really clear and on a sink tip when I want to get down a little deeper.
We usually have all materials in stock in the shop. If you have questions shoot us an email, give us a call, or drop questions in the comment section.
MATERIALS LIST:
Tail - Fish Hunter Marabou
Body - Estaz Normal - Peach & Deep Red
Hackle - Fish Hunter Select Saddle Hackle
Veil - Wood Duck Natural Tan
Flash - Flashabou Red
Head - Ram's Wool Ginger
Eyes - Double Pupil Lead Eyes - Medium - Pink

LB's Floating Minnow Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 7282 роки тому
This pattern is an excellent topwater baitfish pattern. I've caught fish all over VA with these fellas. This pattern is based off of the Topwater CK Baitfish, but their are obvious material variances, and the addition of the shank provides a lot more action! The hook choice is a short and strong shank. This fly will get aggressive hits when fished with quick 3-4" strips across rapids and semi-t...
Dirty Purple Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 1 тис.2 роки тому
This fly pattern is brother to Yeager's 409. We wanted a pattern that incorporated the foam, legs, and hi-visibility of the 409, but sat a little lower in the water. This is a great pattern for our local small streams. It has enough flotation to support a dropper nymph, and the purple is an great color for our early spring/late winter fish!
Yeager's 409 - Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому
This has quickly become one of our go-to dry flies through late spring and summer. It ticks all of the boxes I have for a small stream dry fly: 1) Floats REALLY well, 2) is easy to see, and 3) fish love 'em. You can easily change colors to replicate whatever color scheme is working on your home waters, but in Virginia yellow is a go-to as we start to get heavier hatches of Yellow Sallies. There...
Tying Jake's DB Ribbed Worm - Semperfli Chenille - Underwater & Fishing
Переглядів 4,4 тис.3 роки тому
The squirmy worm hit the world by storm a few years back and has been smoking fish ever since. There was always one problem with it, the material melts and shreds apart very easily. Semperfli came up with a material that provides the same (or very similar) action as a squirmy worm, but doesn't melt or get ripped to shreds as a normal squirmy. The pattern in the video is Jake's DB ribbed Worm. T...
Easy Caddis Nymph - Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому
A stupid simple caddis nymph. This is an incredibly basic pattern that requires basic materials and skill. If you're new to fly tying this a good pattern to get started on! This fly can be altered to look like many different varieties of bugs, such as the Hellgramite at the end of the video! On pressured waters I've done well fishing these. The extended/elevated body make this fly look differen...
Thomas and Thomas Zone Rod Review - 7'6" 3 Weight
Переглядів 5 тис.3 роки тому
The Thomas and Thomas Zone Rod Review - 7'6" 3 Weight This has become one of our most used small stream rods. It's lightweight, accurate, and can handle a wide variety of fishing conditions you will experience out on our VA small streams! We've been slinging the Zone for about 15 months. This has given me ample time to form my opinion and proclaim my endorsement. As an all-around rod this is to...
March Brown - Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому
The Big Ploppa is designed to hold massive amounts of weight for dry/dropper rigs! Typically, when our March Browns are hatching, we higher water flows. This means you need a heavy fly that can get down to the bottom. Rather than using an indicator to suspend the heavy nymph I like to use a big dry fly. That's where the Big Ploppa comes into play! Tie it in varying colors depending on what's ha...
BIG BUNNY - Articulated Streamer Fly Tying Video
Переглядів 4,3 тис.3 роки тому
The Big Bunny. This articulated fly is for trout, bass, or anything else that eats baitfish. We fish these on our local rivers in Virginia: the Jackson, Smith, and the James River behind the shop to name a few. It's a basic design, think, an articulated Zonker - with more bunny. Tied in the size we show in the video, it's perfect for young of the year trout, suckers, or shad (depending on what ...
Cowen's Somethin' Else - Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 24 тис.3 роки тому
This fly was created by striper guru Henry Cowen. This fly was created to imitate small threadfin shad. This pattern has done hard work for us on our local striper fisheries. In the fall/winter months when our fish are keyed in on those smaller baitfish you'd be hard pressed to catch them on something any bigger. The Something' else uses Polar Fibre rather than Bucktail (like a classic Clouser ...
Sinking Fly Lines - The Basics
Переглядів 10 тис.3 роки тому
Fly lines can be confusing. Especially, when it gets into the realms of sinking fly line. This video breaks down the most common styles in common lingo and should give you a better understanding of the different sinking fly lines. Sinking lines can be incredibly helpful, and in some instances necessary if you actually want to catch fish. From lakes to smaller streams you will need to vary what ...
Frenchie - Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 2 тис.3 роки тому
This is one of the most popular flies out there right now, and will certainly find it's way into the "fly hall-of-fame." If there ever is such a thing. The frenchie takes the profile of a small nymph (much like a Pheasant Tail), and simplifies it by finishing off the fly with a bright hotspot. When I'm nymphing and in a new place you better believe this fly is in my box. It has resulted for mor...
Resin Ribbed Wet Fly
Переглядів 4233 роки тому
This is a great wet fly! It takes the classic elements of a wet fly and meshes them with modern materials (ie. resin and rubber legs). In this video we showcase the UV resin technique that helps you get the glossy smooth body. This UV resin technique can be taken into any other realm of tying as well. Use it on nymphs such as a Perdigons, Frenchies, or other patterns you want to stay thin and g...
FLY FISHING TIPS: 1 WAY TO ADD WEIGHT
Переглядів 2,7 тис.4 роки тому
I started doing this tip with streamers and tube flies. Why not expand it into the world of dry/dropper fishing? This easy tip has been helpful when hiking up mountains and trying to make quick adjustments that do MORE than make the fly sink deeper. I almost always have nymphs with the fluorescent beads tied up and in the box, but sometimes I need more (or less) weight. If you had infinite time...
Mini Moto's Minnow Fly Tying Tutorial
Переглядів 1 тис.4 роки тому
The Mini Moto's has been one of our favorite winter time flies for small to medium sized trout streams for years now. It's natural color, limited amount of flash, and baitfish profile have fooled hundreds of fish for us over the years. I've done this tutorial several years ago on a different video platform, but it seems to have disappeared into space... The fly and tying style in this one is th...

Barr's Tung Teaser - Fly Tying Video
Hi, regarding sink tips, what's the difference between the frequency and the sonar titan in the SA range?
Very nicely explained
How are you tying the tippet to the bend in the hook I can never get that tied
What size hook would you recommend for a large dive head?
Thank you! Just purchased this rod in a 5 wt.
Love the music! You could have kept it playing the entire video!!
why didn't you use a slotted bead?
Very nice tie Ethan. Tommy’s Twisted Willy is similar looking but he uses a furled tail.
Great little video. I made my first fly yesterday. I copied Kelly's Silk Kitty and had a blast doing it. Your video filled in a few gaps in the techniques that maybe he cruises through too fast or takes for granted. Thank you sir. 🤘🏼
Biggest disadvantage is tangles. I still think it’s the best fly fishing method
Beautiful fly
lots of tips thanks
Very poor audio...byeeeee.
I like the use of the Tic-Tac box for dubbing. Good idea !
Love the tie but the that hook connection has costed me a lot of fish….. doesn’t let the hook roll freely 😊
I missed a 20+ brown today on a green weenie my cousin made with a loop tail. I had no chance of landing it. I'm new and have no idea I'm doing wrong. If I was using my spinning reel, I would have no problems. I have a 9 foot 5 weight with 4x leader. It's such a huge learning curve and often get frustrated.
It's somethin' else alright!!!!😂😂😂 It's a clouser !
We’ll done review. Loomis IMX pro creek similar?
Never mind. Getting the T&T.
Ive just watched a dozen how to vids on this topic...this is the best. And the comments and your responses are actually helpful Thanks
The audio needs improvement
Please, is the bead "4.6 mm"? Thank you so much.
4.6 is good, but they are hard to find now - a 4.3mm or 3.8 is sufficient if you can find them! They just won't sink as fast.
Sweet jig!! Thanks for sharing!!
I have a question can I use this technique all year round or only certain time of the year?
You definitely can use it year around, but it is most commonly used in mountain streams in the fall/spring. If you use it in winter, treat the dry fly mainly as an indicator. However, there are occasions (warm sunny days) where trout will still go for the dry, so it is nice to have an "indicator" with a hook in it. Cheers!
@@andrewkent6283 thank you for the info.
June 5 on the CDA river in Idaho...75 degrees mostly cloudy...a cities were hitting my hopper indicator and I landed one
Looks awesome with that Ross Colorado. I'm gonna to grab myself one asap
Awesome looking bug. Thanks tons for the detailed tying instructions!
Between this an a Orvis Recon 2 which is better?
I like that fly I'm going to make one
Hello, where do you buy the beads from? thanks for the tips.......................
"You're allowed to over-wrap your material." No Sir, bud! I'm calling the Fly Tying Police right now! 🙂 Super pattern! Thanks for sharing! Oh, maybe put a tiny little square of foam back in the shank part to make it stand on its head? You'd have to fool with it to figure out how much.
Definitely can be done. I believe the the Gully Worm does that very thing. I’ve also used marabou or curly fly tails to make it more of a curly tail swimming worm.
Good stuff. THX
nice video , still trying to figure out how to place my camera
Really great fly! Could you fish this as a single without articulation?
Those types of flies is all I make. Dopest ones to use on every type of specie especially trout anyways question for u bro. Need your help. I usually make those on 1/16ballheads. But wanna make the. On size 6 or 8 hooks or sickle hooks. But have no clue what tungsten head to use that'll be identical to that size 1/16th. You think u can help me with that brotha an what hook you think I should use for that one too. You think that hook your using now for this video?? Thanks much an dope video
That intro is super jarring compared to the laid back nature of the rest of the video. Great video though!
It really looks very nice. Definitely I need to tie it.
To get a little more "senko" action, maybe the this hanging off the front end too, ala San Juan worm
Can you recommend a vise that will hold bass hooks? Trying not to break the bank. Thanks in advance!
I got the dog creek one from bass pro for like $30 about 8 years ago. Still goin strong, tying pike flies and dries for trout.
@Jill Cox thanks! I ordered the Peak rotary. I figure I’d rather spend money once and think I’ll be happy with that one. Really wanted to buy the Regal but dang! Pricey! Thanks again, I’m sure I won’t be disappointed.
very nice Kudos
Is this almost like the spire?
What size leader are you attaching the dry fly to please?
can you send a link to the website you buy the stuff
Hello, How many flies-artificial baits in average can you tie?, two, three etc. Is it legal and used throughout the UK?, thank you and Best regards, TM, ;-)
*I bought these and used them at the river where I get snags often they have done a **enjoyable.fishing** recommend great job of not breaking along with some strong line I purchased as well. They are super durable and easy to use.*
Sweet! Crappie in my area slam these
A fly that works very well for trout in Ireland. Great informative video.
cool Ethan!
Thanks! I appreciate it!
But purple never works! HAHA Great tie!
Never..... Only good for getting UA-cam views.. haha!
What size hook?
This one is a sz. 12!
Would love a material list!
I'll get that loaded into the description! Cheers!
And I thought I was the only cheap arse that did that :-D Must be a Virginia kid thing.
