Hi Davie, You are a “force of nature” … I’ve never seen the art of creating a multi-coloured wing before …amazing to see you do this. A very unusual looking fly pattern indeed, best regards, Wayne 😀👍
Hi Wayne, I would just like to thank you for all your kind words and comments you have been leaving and I'm glad you liked the flies.. All the very best Davie
I like the way your “not being fussy” as you create a masterpiece, the colours and attention to detail are amazing, very easy to learn watching your vids, thank you👍🏻
An excellent demonstration Davie on how to marry wings to perfection! Over 2 million viewings now of your videos on here says it all and there are thousands of us who are very grateful of the time and effort you put in to show us how to tie great flies. Great seeing you with another video upload,you have been missed lately. I have lost count the amount of times i have thought god that is so much easier when i see how you do it, many would never share this info but you share it with us. Thank you
Davie, from an artistic aspect this may be the best colored and prettiest fly you've tied. I especially enjoyed the construction of the layered wings using the tiniest of feathers and hackles. Sir, you're a master!
And another Creation from the vice of Mr. Davie Mc Phail, over the Top Davie. What a great pattern. Just another of your great flies. Thanks so much for your sharing your craft with all of us. Wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas and New Year. All the very Best Mr. Mc Phail
Great Fly. I have married very few wings in the past. Watching you do it has inspired me to do more. Thanks for another wonderful post. I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season.
Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new - latest? Patience in applying each step, and if I don't like it, remove it and try again. Sounds easy but a tough lesson to apply. Thanks
Great to see the wing marrying procedure - love to see the classic wet flies. I've been adapting several of your caddis patterns in anticipation of our Penns Creek Grannom hatch here in central Pennsylvania - only about 16 weeks to wait! Thanks so much for the great videos Davie - I encourage our TU Chapter's fly tying students to view them if they want to learn from a master.
Davie. . . I've been a fan for a long time. Like Bob Fowler's comments, I glean something from each video. I've never been successful at marrying wing material. This is an excellent technique that all tiers should try!
Had great fun in France this past week with a few of your patterns. PT nymph came good too...but maybe that was expected. Great dressing, one for me to try out soon. Great work.
wow your videos are very well made. I have tied four jigs without a vice. I pulled in a 24" Largemouth bass on one and hits on my most recent one until the hook broke. I am planning on get a vice and your videos are giving me many thoughts. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.!
What a beautiful fly! Seems like the cost of materials would make this a showpiece - I'd sure hate to tie one then lose it somehow! You are really a master artisan!
Hi Davie! Thanks so much for referring me to this excellent video. I so appreciate it and this really will help me improve my married wings. All the fly tying may not be improving my marriage tho. Ha ha. I so appreciate your amazing videos and am learning so much. Come to Cali for some steelhead fishing. All the best, John
Well now that is a thing of beauty,I don't know how well it i'll fish!lollol but very very nice!Love the style of tying that's a new one on me,good stuff Davie!
Great to see you back Davie, and with such a beautiful pattern, and as usual perfect demonstration, many thanks! All the very best wishes for a lovely Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year for you and your family.
WOW!!! super fly Davie. Glad your back my friend. Have missed your tying videos. Are you going to do any of the classics? Have a great Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Do you do any videos my friend? Would love to buy one if you have any. Best Regards, Ken
When you fish a wet in the states, people look at you funny. What they don't realize is that sometimes (in New England) it is the only presentation option you have.
Davie, I understood to make a pair of wings, you needed a quill from either side of the bird. Is it okay to use one goose quill of each color and get the right and left from either side of the same feather. I mean right and left of the stem? I have been pairing up right and left primary and secondary feathers. But in this video it seems you are using the same feather from both sides of the stem. Thanks for your time in answering all my questions. All the best, Sean
Hey Davie, I tied a white, red and black married wing. The wing married perfectly, but when I tied it on the top bent over slightly, and try as I might i couldn't tie it in without the top bending. It came out pretty good since I have never tried to tie anything like this before and I have only been tying for a few weeks. I would really like to do on where the wing stands up correctly. Any suggestions??
Thank you for showing the process.Im very interested in all types of fly tying,But i must admit The Traditional flys have a special place in my heart.
