- Here's a detailed tutorial on how I tie Hollow flies with Squimpish Hair. It's a great alternative to expensive premium bucktail and can tie some huge flies.

Hi Mike. I like your video and your talent. Squimpish hair is something I picked up at the show in Edison NJ but haven’t tied with it yet. Now I have some insight of how to do it effectively. Thanks to you and your friends at Squimpish hair. Very cool stuff.
great video Mike! something to try is to hit the inside of the final hollow tie with the superglue to catch the fibers from the underside. keeps the eye a little cleaner, even helps glueing eyes
Yes that’s very true, good point
Awsome tie man ,looks like a mullet 👍
great fly brotha 🤙
Nice video mike
Marcelo De Inocenzio thank you!
Nice fly what’s ur primary line u use on the beach. Thx
Here in the north east 90% of the fishing I do is with an intermediate line, the Rio striper in touch intermediate is my go to. I always have a floating and sinking setups in the car if I need them, but almost all of my fishing is with an intermediate 9 or 10 wt rod
When I think of a hollow fly I think of reverse tying to create a large profile with minimal material, keeping a large fly castable. This is not a hollow fly. This is a going to be a heavy wet mop that will cast terribly.
it s a fly made to catch fisherman not fish 🙄
Don’t know if you’ve ever used this material before but it is far from casting a wet mop 😂 I love sparse light bucktail hollows but the technique is not just limited to bucktail. Don’t knock something till you try, I fish the squimpish hollows more than the bucktail now
