I bought the book many years ago and still have it in my library. I have always struggled tying these. After watching this video i may give it another go. I do believe the style should be a productive pattern. Fresh and salt
This was a hot new style when I started tying! Love how you pull out the great old patterns that the youngsters have never heard of but still catch fish.
I’ll definitely be adding these to my saltwater collection. I am referring you to lots of people, from Texas, Ohio, Maine and California mostly. Relatives and anybody who asks how to tie..I tell to look up your name and they won’t be disappointed. You are the best. Thanks! 🎣
thanks Kelly, thinking I can tye this now that I have watched you....
Tied these for years with hair and marabou. Great to rediscover this effective pattern Kelly through your tutorial using synthetics to enhance the fly. Superb!
Thanks Kelly! I have been fishing the Thunder Creeks since 70’s and as you said they are money. I love your comment about the fish coming out of the water and grabbing the fly on the way down. I thought I was the only one who experienced that phenomenon. I kinda kept that to myself as a figured my buddies wouldn’t believe me anyway.
Good to see how tou tie this simple, classic modal. Thank you!
Very excited to see this one, still one of my favorite streamers. I used to paint a little black line with Testors on the head. And, yeah my Dad bought the book & I still have it
Thanks for the shout out on Wisconsin!
The marabou version, Mitchell Creek is the first streamer I tie on in the spring. However I use mylar braid as the body. If you use pearl braid ( remove the cotton cord from the center) you can influence the body color with different color thread base on the shank. . Step wise lay down a thread base , your choice , white , red , pink , orange or any color,tie off and clip thread off. Tie in red thread at the hook barb , slide mylar braid on over the eye , tie down with red thread (tag ) clip off . Tie in white or light gray thread at the eye, stretch mylar to eye and tie down. Coat with uv resin and cure. Tie in white marabou on the underside of the hook same as the Thunder Creek, tie in 4-6 strands of pearl crystal flash, then light gray marabou , then dark gray marabou or peacock herl. Wet the marabou and pull back and tie in , I use red thread as a throat. Uv resin coat and cure head . I paint in eyes, my favorite combination is yellow metal flake with a black pupil. Coat with hard as hull.
What few I have tried I just use white thread and color thread wit a red sharpie 23:15 before creating throat. I have never used boo since may try it.
I love a turn and burn streamer tie. Great one!
Great pattern , used a version of these on the Bighorn a few years ago when the flow was 10,000 CFS the fish were gorging on minnows . Great week of fishing . As you say easy to tie and you can do them in many different color combinations.
Hi Kelly I just love your videos and thanks so much for all the time you spend to teach us. I'm an old fly fisherman who has had about a 12-year break and not fishing and a comeback this year. I tied these years ago and we of course we only had buchtel back then. I've Haddix good experiences with them in the past. But I'm curious now to try to match the hatch a little better so to speak. Can you give me an idea of what colors you would use if you were making some of these two fish spinney Mountain Reservoir and Antero, 11 Mile in Colorado please
Would love to see a book on all your Articulated Streamers
Kelly, the famed underwater Trout researcher, Ralph Cutter, once stated that based on his studies, no modern synthetic material can beat the fish attracting qualities of plain old bucktail in a streamer pattern. Thanks for tying this oldie but goodie. In a future show please tie Art Flick's famed "Black Nose Dace"
This is SOOOOO cool tying. I will be doing this one to imitate sticklebacks.
Excellent as always! When will your new streamer book be coming out? I have been waiting.
Now this is one I gotta try.
If you consult Stewart and Allen flies for trout you will find the pattern there for the Mitchell Creek.
This fly will hunt, thanks Kelly
Hi Kelly, tied a couple up but having trouble with the bucktail spinning on the shank when complete...tried shortening the mylar body so as to leave a thread base for the bucktail and still no joy...could it be the thread ? Used Veevus 150d gsp.
Thanks for everything you do, I'm taking it to Welsh and Yorkshire rivers,UK
This streamer is perfect with a couple exceptions. It needs 3-D eyes and a dash of
red UV throat whiskers. Traditional maybe not, but these small additions make a
world of difference. I like deer hair better than synthetics to much flash is bad in clear water.
You should do that and call it a Thunder Gizmo, or Gizmo Creek :)
I obtained the thunder Creek series book many years ago. I never got the hang of getting a clean color break line and gave up on them. I may give them another go they sure look fishy to me.
I agree with your issue. I have not found these to be a simple tie and I have been trying since my TC book was new. I always thought it would be a good pattern
Wow! I forgot all about that fly! I tied a lot of those around the same time period. Yep, black nosed dace, and I painted the eyes on too. I used match sticks and tooth picks for the paint.
Love the old flies, would like to see your versions of classic dry flies, Adams, Royal Coachman, Hendrickson, etc.
and Humpy!
Have you tied them on turned down eye size 2
Modified grey ghost to me. But then again, it's hard to be original these days. (Disclaimer to Kelly's articulated)
No set feather or jungle cock, so not too similar. Look for a Grey Ghost tutorial coming to our channel soon though
the money minnow..much better name than thunder creek
What is the Money Minnow?
