The twisting of the Marabou is a great idea! Oh question for ya Tornado, is there a reason why you did not want to use wire to wrap the body? Maybe carp can taste or sense the wire? Or is it you wanted it as light as possible? Appreciate your response in advance! Thank you for tying a carp fly!!!
Terr just trying to keep the fly as light as possible and minimize the flash. If you had ultra fine wire that would work just fine too! Thanks for the question!
I've been fly fishing for CARP since the 1970's here in Santa Barbara and Goleta slew, Carpenteria and many places that I will not mention!!!! and when I lived in Glendale when I had to leave home for school and work down there!!! the LA River was and still is fantastic for fly fishing for carp!! and I must say I am truly excited about your fly I just purchased some materials down at Marriott's and I'm gonna tie a variety!! GREAT TIE......and I've been purchasing materials from FTD for years and that PRIVATE STASH DUBBING iS MY FAVORITE!! the Mad Scientist sent me a sample a number of years ago and its all GREAT...
Thank you! I'm a huge fan of this pattern, simple, versatile and light on the drop! Oooohhhh so good! FTD has amazing materials at such a reasonable price which makes me feel like buying more! 😁 Enjoy the fly, I know you'll find success!
I'm interested in the last black dubbing, I couldn't find anything, what it actually is, can it be replaced with a black deer, does it have the same properties? I've never seen these hybrids between a lure and a nymph, I'll try...
Looks like an all-star pattern to me. I'll give this one a go. Excellent tying techniques and instructions.
Thanks this pattern is $$$ enjoy!

The dubbing is synthetic, better to use a yarn, perhaps some small rubber bands mixed in. Deer hair would float and not work. Good luck!
Excellent tying from yourself. Like this pattern, I’m going to tie this. Thanks for sharing
Carp love this thing!! Enjoy!!
Thank You for the Amazing Video! Can these Flys be purchased?
Yes! Reach out to me on Instagram!
@TroutTornado I'm sorry but at 50 I'm not even sure what that is. I have paypal an email thanks to my son. Let me see if he has that!!
👍👍👏👏
Зря финишный узел с дублированием не сделал, разлетится...
Best to you my friend
🎯🐟 similar to Barry's carp bitter. Thanks!
I'll have to check it out... thanks!
Awesome tie, love the techniques and the profile.
This fly is the boss! I tie it in multiple colors and the carp just love it!
Thanks for the post
Always happy to share!
