- In this fly tying tutorial Cheech ties the Overachiever Midge!
We all know and love the thread midge, bling midge, yong special, etc... That we know. This fly is that same tiny fly style with a little bit more realism. Fulling Mill has a great range of stripped peacock quills so you can make them almost any color! I like to fish these with a starndard indicator rig with really light tippet. The lighter the tippet, the faster your flies will get in the zone.

Cheech,
I want to congratulate you. Here’s your Little Lebowski Urban Achiever Award 🥇 😎
That is a fantastic pattern.
No question: Hook’n Lips!
Great fly I love it and as a bonus it’s my birthday
Birthday pattern 🎉
Good looking fly🔥🔥
I tie pretty much the same pattern, but with fulling mill’s micro flex-floss for the rib.
❤
I was going to make a snarkey comment on hotdog fingers but I will not, your birthday is coming up so HAPPY BIRTHDAY- Cheech! Yeah is a few days early I wanted to be first and just one more thing, cool midge pattern!
Thanks buddy
Nice midge. Thanks for the video. Looks like a Smhaen bobbin maybe? Was looking to get one so seeing if you had a preference yourself about the tension control version or the regular. Thanks
My favorite! I tie with it the most.
And it’s the standard one. Not the one with the braking system
Looks like short UK buzzer size 20
As the striped quills become brittle with age or they dry out. Just use a light application of a lanolin based hand cream. A tiny amount will soften them right up.
Or…. Spit.
@@FlyFishFoodtalk dirty to me!
@@FlyFishFood spit works short term lanolin will add years of useful life to quilts in your tying kit. Some of my quills are over forty years old and still good. Taking care and good preventive care of tackle flies tools and materials. All is key to having it last. A rusting hook will snap. Store fly boxes at the end of the season without moth balls and moisture protection your entire collection can turn to hooks with just thread and varnished eyes. Same with your capes, feathers, furs and fibres.one untreated packet can turn years of collected material into dust.
@@michaelshaw8370 see. It only needs to be wet while I’m working with it. Then it hardens up and we put that goo on it to make it hard forever.
So, quick question - I tried this about four different times and every time the quill broke. Am I doing something wrong?
Moisten the quill beforehand. Then be careful on the first few turns.
This reminds me I need to try catching a trout on a bare hook
It’s not that hard actually 😬
