Hopper fly patterns are as common as a grasshopper in a wheat field. This pattern, called the Mr. Peanut Hopper is easy to tie, impossible to sink, durable, and pretty good at catching fish. Don’t say ‘no’ to Mr. Peanut.

OK. I am 1 minute into this video and I am laughing, love the presentation !! Great hopper, soon to be in my box, thanks !
What size hook are you using ?
"If your thread doesnt burst into flames your winding too slowly"
Great fly and even better narration. I rarely listen and often skip through most tying videos to the key points, but I found myself pleasantly entertained and watched and listened the whole time. Thanks for sharing!
Hey man, thanks! Hope life's good!
There need to be more tier's like you on youtube. Your humor is priceless.
I appreciate that, sdpy! No need to take ourselves so seriously, in my mind.
Nice hopper! Tight lines🐛🐜🕷️!!!!
Thanks!
Love your work mate,this fly works amazing here in Australia late summer.
Hey Brendan, thanks so much for taking the time to share this with me. That late summer hopper bite seems to be somewhat of a universal, it seems. I've chatted a bit with Peter Morse, not sure if your familiar with him, and he has said that some of the trout fishing has gone down hill near his home by the Blue Mountains in Leura, AU. Glad to hear that you're still finding plenty of fish. Thanks again!
#1-great pattern, going to tie some up
#2-kudos on the Bob Ross reference!
Hey Calzona, we aim to please. I like to class my videos up with quotes from famous historical painters...or at least painter! Let me know how the pattern works for you. Thanks again.
Mate, greetings from the antipodes. Sensational video, first time I've laughed out loud at a fly tying vid. Love the hopper pattern, I've been using a variation of this in New Zealand on big rivers with great success this year. I like it because you can fish a heavy double nymph rig under if there's nothing on the surface (if you can avoid knocking yourself unconscious trying to cast it). Keep up the good work and tight lines, Craig.
Hey, Craig. Thanks for the nice words, and I'm glad I didn't put you to sleep. I could use a little antipode about now with our winters and the spectacular water you guys have over there. Amazing fish in incredible surroundings...and no snow or cold at the present moment! I love foam for so many things, because it's unsinkable and extremely durable. I've watched a couple of your videos, and it looks like a ton of fun. Thanks again, Justin.
Hi Justin, thanks for watching glad you enjoyed them, no shortage of water or fish over here, you don't have to go far to find solitude. I've been a bit slack on video production recently, computer comes a poor second to a day on the water. Cheers, Craig
You've definitely got your priorities straight! Thanks again.
Ok thank you I enjoyed this video and hope to see some more in the future. I would like to see more foam trout flies for swift rivers
Great presentation. You're talented that way. Soldier on.
Hey John, I appreciate it! Hope fishing/tying's going well for you.
Very enjoyable video nicely done. And a nice hopper pattern simple & effective just the way I like them
Mike
+Mike “Mickalo” Blezien Thanks Mike! I'm with you on the simple and effective.
beautiful!! I'm going to make it with a 4/0 hook to fish for dorado!!
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
Heya mate, great video, funny and simples way to expose the process! Tight Lines!
Hey, I appreciate it! Looks like some fun fishing there in Portugal. Some pretty great carp fishing there in a beautiful part of the world. Thanks again.
Eheheh it is indeed! Thank you for sharing!
Love your humor 😂 great video
Hey Brittany, I appreciate it! Glad I'm not the only one laughing.
Nice fly-all give mr peanut a try👍🏻
Hey thanks, JS. I appreciate it!
Mr Peanut Hopper! Haha, I love it. Made me laugh a lot, while watching you tie this one. Going to tie Mr Peanut, oh and use a dabble of ZAP A GAP!
+Paul Asbell Glad to hear it, Paul. Always happy to hear that I didn't put someone to sleep while still giving them some good info. Good fishing to you!
+toflyfish Good fishing to you too. I tied my first Mr. Peanut Hopper tonight! Came out perfect first time, yes easy tie. I was reviewing your video over the segment, while tying the hopper pattern, and laughing in between each review. OHh, need some more glorious ZAP A GAP in a super soaker!
LOL, loved the humor. Ever notice how every fly tier has horrible finger nails and usually covered in some type of superglue on their fingertips?
Taking this to a size 12 and going for bass/bluegills. Thanks!
Hey Brett, glad you enjoyed the video! Present company excluded from the bad finger tips, I assume...but indeed I've seen some fingernails that are verging on grizzly bear's. All for the cause!
Let me know how the pattern works for you! Thanks again!
Awesome presentation!
Thanks, Paul!
Thanks for sharing !
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment!
Nice presentation
Thanks Paul! Hope life's good!

Muy bueno el video .sta muy bien explicado.

Gracias Tito! Es muy amable de tu parte.
It would be nice if you gave more information on hook size & tread you are using.
Hey Jack, I usually keep the information here in case I need to update it, etc. toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/
Thanks!
Entertaining and excellent
Thanks, Jason!
What size hook is it?
Hope you're doing well, Tomas! It depends on the hook length, for example, 1x, 2x, or 3x. On this pattern in the video, it's a #6 2x Tiemco 5262.

Hope that helps!
Can I buy some I don't have a kit yet to make my own flies yet I'm new to fly fishing this year
+Joe Marquez Hi Joe, I don't really sell flies, and this fly pattern isn't sold commercially. There are lots of great hopper and terrestrial patterns though. I would talk to a local fly shop on the waters you are planning on fishing and get what they recommend. Feel free to shoot us a line at our website, toflyfish.com, if you ever have any questions about fly fishing. Glad you like the pattern!
Great video. What size hook do you use to tie it?
Hey, Mike. I don't know how your comment slipped through the cracks, but here's the link on the fly size etc. Thanks!
toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/
Hi nice fly what was the hook you used and size also what was the width of the foam you used Thanks Mark
Hey, Mark, thanks for the kind words! Out of laziness, here is the link to the materials and article. Thanks again!
toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/
OK. Back again. I tried all my local sources for two layer foam and they all said There is no such thing ! Can you tell me your source so I can do some research on it, please and thank you ? Again, great vid !
+PRACERZ Hey thanks, good sir. Truth be known, I got the foam about ten years ago, and I bought a TON of it. I haven't seen the strips anywhere since then. You can get the sheets from a few places. For example, Fly Fish Food has some. It's called "Two-Tone Fly Tying Foam". If you Google that, you'll find it. You can also glue sheets together to make your own color combinations. Thanks again, and glad I could provide a bit of entertainment...!
Nice I like
+Joe Marquez Good to hear, Joe! I appreciate the input.
dont think this will work so well...
but i do like your video. comical too. ice job
Thanks for taking the time to chime in! I make sure that pretty much all of the patterns on my site/channel are fish catchers. I don't really have a bunch of flies that I've never fished. If I do, I try to let people know. This fly has caught everything from bluegill/small trout to musky. So, rest assured, it will do just fine in a few different color combos. I like this pattern as a general overall hopper. I like a few other larger terrestrials as well, but I don't think fish are that selective when they get on the hopper bite. Love to hear your thoughts on other patterns and/or fishing situations. Thanks again!
Great tie, really enjoyed it.
What kind of camera you used to make the video?
Hey NCA, glad you enjoyed it! I use a Panasonic HC-x920 for my tying videos. It doesn't do 4k, but it's still HD. If you don't need sound, you could probably get a better camera (4K) for a bit cheaper. However, the camera has been a pretty solid camera for the price, and it can still be used with lavalier mics, etc. Hope that helps. Thanks again!
toflyfish Thanks for your advice. That help me a lot.
My pleasure! Cheers
Great hopper ! how good is the zap a gap glue ?
Hey David, it's great! I use it on pretty much every pattern I tie since it makes the pattern bombproof. I use a few other glues and lacquers, but I use this the most. It's also perfect on the water if you get a cut. I use brushable, so you can clean the cut and then close it up. In a pinch, it's saved my bacon more than once. Disclosure: I'm not a doctor. Thanks for the comment!
Have you caught trout on this fly?
Hey Payton. I have caught some warm water species on this pattern, but by far and away, I have caught mainly trout on this pattern, particularly brown trout. I have also found that at times smacking the fly outside of the trout's sight window or moving the fly on moderately-flowing water will draw fish to the fly more so than if you just drifted it over them. I've also had good success with this fly on private trout lakes, but that's kind of cheating anyway--a lot of fun though. Thanks again!

What size hook?
Hi Victoria. toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/
whaaaaat ? 1/2 inch pasta knot ?
Hey Diceman, thanks for chiming in. This one had me scratching my head and then laughing heartily. I must talk like I have a sock in my mouth or something. Cut them a "1/2 inch past the knot." I'm going to refer to this moment in the tying process as "the pasta knot" from here on out, buddy. : ) Hope the fall fishing in your parts is treating you right. Thanks again!
Size hook?
Hey T.K. Depending on the hook, this one is 6/8. Here's the materials list and details: toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/ Hope this helps, and good luck!
toflyfish Thanks G.
Vf
Lol. This isn't new ar all.
What size hook?
It depends on how long the shank is, e.g., 1x, 2x, 3x. I use Tiemco 5262 #6 for the video. Here's the recipe: toflyfish.com/hopper-fly-pattern-mr-peanut-hopper/
