- As part of our Bugs n' Brews fly tying series, this video is intended to be supplemental content to our latest video on river hopping Montana. The Iron Lotus is a nymph that works just about anywhere, including many of the famous (and not so famous streams of Montana).
The Lazy River Pilsner from New Trail was the perfect beer to enjoy while tying up a few flies and really captured the spirit of our last video ( • River Hopping Montana ... , in particular the tailwater float.

I'm not sure if I like the beer more than the fly. Anyhow great job on the video. Tight lines.

@@BackyardBassin Great fly !!! will have to try it.
Thanks , Doug. Awesome pattern.
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
Doug,
Very well done. I tied like that and with thread but also with my olive thread and put a black sharpie to it to give it a different look. Stupid easy to tie and really effective
I realize Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to watch new movies online?
@Miller Cory i use flixzone. You can find it by googling =)
@Kason Kyrie Yup, have been watching on FlixZone for years myself :)
@Kason Kyrie thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) Appreciate it !
@Miller Cory No problem xD
Great series. I'm always looking for new patterns to try. Not an IPA fan but New Trail does have some refreshing beverages. I love their Oatmeal Stout.
I actually have one of their oatmeal stouts (rolled oats) in my fridge as we speak. Great beer!
New to tying. Can you link to head cement and uv light you used?
Solarez UV resin is a decent entry level resin. You’ll need a UV light to kick it off, unless you can put em in a window in direct sun. Solarez has all the goodies you’ll need. If you have a local fly shop, they’ll carry it.
The ‘loon’ line of stuff is more expensive, and you probably won’t wanna jump up to those until you’re either more proficient in tying (meaning, you won’t be throwing away as many of your boo boo flies) or you are able to add color resins to scuds and some wild flies.
Good stuff @kalikasurf
Just to add to that a bit, I use the Solarez Bone Dry and really like it. As was already said, most fly shops should have it. In regards to the UV light, you could probably find a generic UV light online. I do have one from Loon but it is not very good a very cheaply made. I linked a video below from one of the local fly shops here, where he goes into detail on the light he uses. Hope this helps!
