Very informative, have you ever just used dubbing so as not to pinch the squirmy material, after I put my base thread on the hook I start my wraps over the squirmy material with dubbed thread never have had a problem slicing the material.. I have had great luck using scud dubbing on my squirmies I do like your use of the thread while tying down the worm material, I can see why that would work, and especially the counter clockwise spin so as to have flat thread.Nice work....
Thanks for watching. Feel free to call or e-mail Ryan at the shop directly and he'll be happy to help. He won't see the question here just so you know.
Reallly great video tried tying some of my own and turned out great and the fish liked them too. But I was just wondering what’s the smallest size you could go for a squirmy wormy?
Thanks for watching. You can go as small as you like but would think that anything below 16 might be challenging and the material just simply too thick at that point. Let us know if we can help further.
Tigger Woods There are some folks out there who consider this not a fly. Especially the ones made from the Squirmy rubber material. They consider this cheating.
@@tiggerwoods8829 It's a fly that can outright win a tournament on the right day, and not banned from tournaments as far as I know. Of course some people are going to be butt hurt about it. This is a great steelhead fly for me, and a must in a 2 fly fishing rig for trout (anchor nymph + squirmy)
Thank God for Mad river outfitters
Thanks for watching and please stay tuned.
Got to be the best method I caught 10 + Rainbow using this pattern yesterday
Yes, excellent flies.
Thanks for making this video. Super easy to tie and I have been killing the pan fish on this fly.
Scott M. Thanks for watching Scott. Glad to hear they are working for you.
Stay tuned.

Thanks!
That's a good idea. Gonna give that a try.
I had the oppourtunity to meet the guy who invented this fly and visit the fly shop he works at, im exited to see what fish i can catch with this fly
@@Outdoorslife1776 Thanks for watching!
Thanks, Ryan. I'm wondering whether almost any UV stuff would work, or is there magici in the Loons brand? tom

Nice!
Thanks for watching.
So I loose my mind with trying to get it secured straight I take some wire and use that to secure it while I wrap seems to work for me
Cool...thanks for sharing.
Would these work on the river fishing for brown trout
Of course.
Thick or Thin Loon UV finish?
Thin for sure so that it gets soaked up nice by the thread wraps! Thanks for watching.
So why is it controversial?

Really? They should get a life and worry about something thats actually important.
Tigger Woods Agreed!!!!
Because is looks like a rubber worm....LOL!

'Tying' worms, are we?
Appears that way. Yes.
