- Here's a style of comparadun I refer to as a "Roman Hackle". Named after Mike Romanowski who passed away in 2019. He was the first person I remember doing this style. It also kind of looks like a Roman Centurion Helmet, doesn't it??

I have been tying for about 50 years and learned new trick, thanks for sharing. Always something new to learn with such an amazing hobby!!
Thanks for sharing that tip! A great way to pay tribute to your friend.
Thanks for the neat trick, Nick. I will add that to my bag. Your videos have made a better tier out of me and for that I thank you.
Thank you!
I think this is my new favorite pattern!! Thanks for the teach!
easy trick!

Tanks for the tips 👍
NINice work. Tey call that singing-its a technique used when making a Japanese ink brush. In that case though there is also some gelatine glue embedded in the fibres. Anyway, its a way of sealing hair. Love your clips. :-)'
That is an interesting trick. The hackle is a lot like our hair, the hair will take a set with a curling iron, so yeah a little head on a bodkin would do the same here. Thou a little UV like bone dry would do the same thing. After all, we put all sorts of glues on the head of flies, I am not convinced that the weight would make much of a difference. It looks to be a quick way to tie a comparison, thin water, and slow flat currents, the kind of thing you see in late spring, summer, and going into fall. I am thinking Blue dun hackle, olive body on the 22 to 26 hooks for the tiny blue wing olive hatches that go on was I live from mid-June to the middle of Oct. On the plus side, it would be a fairly durable fly.
Hey George, you might be right on the UV 👍. Definitely cheaper and cleaner though. Curling iron! Yeah that makes sense. Thanks
@@NickMango I meant heat not head, I sometimes have a problem with my typing a lighter is a very useful item to have on your flying bench. I know full well that a good well-tied fly will go up in smoke, been known to happen. What I am going to do is tie some and see. I got bone dry, I'll do an Adams version. Say # 16 and see what the fish think!
What a great trick, I suppose it’s like a lady’s curling iron, I wonder how he thought of it. Thx for the help.
Probably right Dave haha 👍
What color wing does a sulfer really have? Grey ? Sulpher?????
They go from light yellow to clear gray. It all depends on the cycle they’re in. Some can be very bright yellow. Like a light cahill. Just tie what you can see. Makes life easy. GL
The fibers are hollow and you melt them together.......
You can call it ironing the hackel..
