    The 2 laboratory test flies you sent me home with last week worked well. Caught 3 in 15 minutes!

    I'm impressed with this fly and the techniques you used to make it. Flotation, color, and movement.

    How do you put your tippet through the eye of fly without looking at it… I don’t want Medusa to turn me to stone!!! Lol This may be my new favorite fly. This style of fly has always been great for trout that won’t commit to a dry,,, that dangling hook/rear body below the surface film is irresistible to the fish. Well thought through Cheech!!!

    I can't wait to tie some of these up! I ordered my Hairline Feather Pepper the other day, and this is gonna be the first pattern I tie when that Fly Fish Food box shows up at my house 🙌

    This is going to be absolutely great for some dry droppers this summer, now I’ve got to go place an order so I can tie some of these up.

    That is a very cool fly that’s also easy to see on the water. After use do you reapply flyagra , the gel floatant or the powder.

    It’s like what I have been tying for GDs recently, but I use dark dun snowshoe hare for the wing.

    I love it all except that maribou shuck. I prefer to use some nymph dubbing. Just a few fibers, the kinkier the better lol.

    Skill builder:
    Counterwrap your pheasent tail and regular wrap your wire overtop. The thread will wrap the wire down more naturally that way.

    • @FlyFishFood
      @FlyFishFood  5 місяців тому

      Yup. That way works too. Proper tension and they are both equally simple

      It might chop it too fine. I think you’d want longer strands for the wing

      @FlyFishFood  5 місяців тому +1

      You’d burn up your grinder in about .7 seconds and then it might catch on fire.

    How about Cheech tying a fly using his beard hair?

    • @FlyFishFood
      @FlyFishFood  5 місяців тому +1

      Too coarse. Like coarse as brassie wire

  • @maknifeandrods7701
    @maknifeandrods7701 5 місяців тому

    If you turn the fly upside down it looks like your beard. So say call it cheech’s green drake beard

    Awesome fly. Just the first 10 minutes of pulling and prepping is the only downfall for me. Other than that, awesome.

    • @FlyFishFood
      @FlyFishFood  5 місяців тому +1

      Yup. Once you prep it you have enough for about 25 flies.

      Understand that, I'm a tie as needed kind of person, but realistically how much time do you spend reading/thinking about these comments. You would be halfway done blending it if you did it while reading this. :P Then poof you have enough material for the season.
