Fantastic. I have put this in my "best category" of fly tying videos on youtube. No clutter to distract, all the steps are evident, good lighting and plain background. You also answered a key question with your water demo - as you were tying I thought you would have too much material on the bottom and it would spin. Count me in as a fan
I've been away from fly tying for over 40 years and am amazed at the advances in materials. Flexible goop and UV light. Are you kidding me? That's awesome! Back in the day, if we wanted dubbing, we had to trim it from under fur and put dubbing wax on the thread, then sprinkle the under fur on the waxed thread before winding it on. So much better nowadays. Think I'll scare up my old Thompson D vice and get back to it. You do a fine job young man, and have a great talent. Best wishes.
Thank you Jon! Yeah, things have changed. You will be amazed by the new advances in rooster capes. They have midge size that can tie to 28 size hooks, sometimes smaller. These feathers have gotten longer, more dense and all around better. Go check out some high quality capes from your local fly shop. It will blow your mind! If you have any questions I am here. :)
This is one cool looking fly , I haven't tied fly's for many years and am just getting back into it the uv gel mixed dubbing opens up a whole new aspect for me as I now want to make some tarpon fly's and doing this in a mullet pattern or tread fin would be fantastic , thanks for a great instructional video , tight lines! 👍🏼
What is the best size of hook to order from Amazon in the Gamagatsu SS15? I don't think you said in the video but might have missed it! Please advise? Thanks! And a great Vid!
Thank you for your quick answer! I bought 3 packs of Gamakatsu SS15 size 1/0 (30 Total). These hooks are sharp! I have subscribed with you! Thanks again!
I went on to fly tyers dungeon and was extremely surprised by how cheap the material is. I was curious about how much material comes in a "bag" and how much material comes in a "hank" from your experience.
+Mc. Fly Lures mainly synthetic fibers for tying streamer patterns. I wish they had pictures of the hanks. I really don't want to wait a week or so, only to find out that I didn't order enough material lol
Thanks! Well I do sell flies. Let me know whatcha want. Best way is to private message me on Instagram so I can send you pictures and such of all the previous flies I’ve tied.
First off i've been enjoying your videos lately and have found them very helpful.I followed your link for the Bullfrog dubbing to tie this fly.The link brings you to Big Bopper dubbing which i ordered by mistake by following the link.You might want to fix that.
Awesome man! As for many takes, it depends on what type of fish. Something super toothy might destroy it quickly. Bass, I would say 3-6 strikes, (depending on how badly they crush it). It’s an awesome little fly, but no it’s not the most durable out there. Of course it’s not terrible either on that front. I would have 1-2 in your box just for when the bass are being super picky, but it’s not my every day fisher you know? Just cause it’s hard to tie and not the most durable. Just really good for getting those bass that are being super picky. So save it for those days.
I am so happy you mentioned Fly Tyers Dungeon! I didn't know any of the names in today's (Sept. 23rd) video and you hadn't mentioned where to get them. Just checked them out and am going to buy some of their products as soon as payday comes around. All the best, Sean. (BTW I did purchase one of those vises for my grandson. It seems to be built in such a way as to not be damaged by novice tiers. I had been told they weren't making them anymore. I guess that information was wrong. Thanks again. Sean)
+Sean Mooney yeah the fly tiers dungeon has some great prices on their products. I think It would cost $8 or so for all the materials to make this fly with the exception of the hook and UV resin. The vise is a good vise. I'm not stoked about the jaws honestly. But it's not bad. It is built like a tank though like you said, and probably would survive an atomic blast. Haha
+Vlogging With Arnold I believe it is, but it has long fibers which is perfect for streamers. I always use an intermediate fly line with this fly, so it sinks down good, but it holds enough air, that the fly rides abbot above the line. I plan on doing a bluegill imitation on video soon, keep a lookout for the video which will show what colors to use... For baby bass, I don't fish that often, so I've never tied one. Not sure 100% what color pattern would be best. I'll think about it and get back to you. My guess would be some type of dark green and white...
Mc. Fly Lures thank you so much! I just bought a ton of this stuff from fly tyers dungeon, and one of the colors I bought was called a violet dun. It should work for a bluegill imitation
I’m new to fishing, I have to tell you your videos on making flys (is this correct?) very relaxing. I don’t fly fish yet but you’re convincing me. I think I will enjoy making the lures more though!
So I want to catch big largemouth bass on the fly rod, and in my area the only patterns that work is “sexy shad”, so do you think you could make a “sexy shad” variant of this streamer?
Fat Head Squishy Streamer - American Shad - Fly Tying Videoua-cam.com/video/XycoQajgJwI/v-deo.html In the mean time this might help? It’s close, just change the back coloration to gray and blue... and add one large dot not a few...
Awesome fly and great video, is there any tips of how to cure the smell after using the UV Resin as I have found it takes many days for the stink to go away, all the best Pete from Scotland.
+peter buckley I never notice a stink when using it. Slight plastic type smell when coming out of the tube (barely any actually) and I don't notice any after it's cured with the UV light... not sure if the fish do though, they might have a better sniffer then me. However I do catch fish with it so either the smell is not there, or the fish don't care?
Your videos are the best ever keep up the good work and if it wasn't for you I would not have known that fly ' s could be so incredibly interesting now I want to fly fish
Hey thanks! You should get out there and fish! Pick up a rod from Risen fly, I get a discount I can transfer to you for a purchase. Use the code McFly at checkout
I did a review on the vice I used here on this video which was an Anvil Atlas. However I have since replaced my vice with a Renzetti (I plan on doing a review on that as well). But any of the name brand vices are usually great quality and will serve you well for a long wile. Just make sure everyone that reviews whatever vice you get say that the jaws are good quality. The most important thing with a vice is the Jaws. The rest is just prefference/luxury. For my bobbin, I use a "rite bobbin" which are kinda pricy. If you are getting into tying, that really isn't needed. If you do need to purchase a bobbin, I highly recommend a ceramic tip bobbin, or a teflon coated one (so the thread doesn't get frayed). However, don't use those for wire, always use a super cheap bobbin for wire as wire will cut the teflon. For scissors, I recommend a quality scissor. Dr. Slick makes quality stuff for not too much money $15-20 will get you good scissors. However there are some cheaper brands that produce decent scissors, but some just stink. A bad quality scissor can make tying frustrating. For a whip finisher, I like using the matarelli style. But there are other ones out there and thats just based on preference. Or watch some video's on hand whip finishing if you want to save money. If you want to get the tool, then make sure its of a decent quality. Again, Dr. Slick makes a very good quality one for not too much money. its also good to have a bodkin (basically a needle with a handle). You could even just have a needle with you and that could work. Many people make their own with a sewing needle and glue it into a piece of wood. But, you can pick them up for $5 or so. These don't have to be high quality, so a cheap one is fine. Just used to spread out cement, or to pick out your flies. If your tying streamers, a stiff bristle toothbrush is handy. To help thread your bobbin with your thread, then a bobbin threader is handy as well. You can get these pretty cheap also. With all the above, you could tie 90-95% of flies out there without any other tools. You can worry about getting other ones later when you come across a pattern that a specific tool will help. For instance, many people get a parachute post holder for tying parachute's on flies like a parachute adams etc... But again, start small, don't spend a ton of money, then get what you need later for specific patterns.
Thanks! So are you talking about the scottish bagpipe song? it comes free with my i-movie editing program. Honestly not sure where else you could get it.
As I was watching the fish and fly photo giveaway I HAD to check out that nice little streamer u should. Haven’t missed many videos of yours but this must’ve. Anyway,8 spent my first $50 at FTD and it was well with it. Overall it dubbing what do I recommend to be the best almost like laser dub or just the best for long fibers and biggest thing, for dubbing heads on streamers, it looks like bull frawg looks the best for dubbing heads but I know you also talk about Arctic wind and a few others. Thanks
Yeah arctic wind is good, but it’s thinner... like it doesn’t bulk up as much for the same amount (weight) of materials. Bull frawg is a dry fly dubbing technically so it’s really light and doesn’t seem to over saturate with water, keeping it easy to cast. However being a dry fly, you must use some type of weight to get it down. I like naturals for dubbing heads as well, and also “sculpin wool” seems to work well also.
Thanks! Its a UV Resin rather than a glue. In the description section is a link to where you can get the resin. Here it is again... Its made by Solarez and its called "Flex"... solarez.com/products/fly-tie-flex-formula/
Oh thanks man! I do occasionally sell flies. Go to my ebay page... www.ebay.com/usr/escapingdailygrind. Usually I don't sell this one though because it takes forever to tie, and its tough to ship without squishing it. It will hold a shape when squashed for longer than a day or so.
McFly Angler I understand...I'll check eBay from time to time. Meanwhile; I'll make a spot on my wall where a small frame will sit empty until that faithful day. 😃
I stay away from bead heads, when I can. I tie lots of sculpin patterns for smallmouth, browns and steelhead. I do not like the action of the bead head. It does not swing or swim in a realistic manner. But, that's just me. I do weight my streamers more than most fly tyers. Lead wrap wire would be good on this fly. I usually position it on the back half of the smaller streamers. It gives it a more correct swim. Thanks for the tip. Keep up the great videos!
Yeah, I know what you mean. Sometimes I do like the jigging action that a head weighted fly offers though. I think it just depends on the situation. I just tied up a sculpin pattern, but it does have a cone head for extra weight. I uploaded the video already, but it will be available the 25th on youtube. I upload one video a week on fridays at 1:00. I have one uploading today, which is a shrimp pattern, then the sculpin. They are fun to tie, I like the fatter head flies for some reason.
Not all have celtic... I just choose the free stuff on my editing software. I switch between a few different ones I like. Cant go wrong with some bag pipes in my opinion! HAHA
I’m working at making a video on how to start fly tying. It will show what to piece together. I’d recommend getting the items individually as many fly kits offer some low quality and sometimes unusable tools
+Bass Knuckles kid yeah I'm sure it can be done. I haven't tried before but I'm sure it can be. I'll look into the pattern and see if o can't come up with the right pattern at one point.
Well, give it a try. Buy the right colors of the same materials. I am guessing white under body, with a gray top. Maybe even a medium gray to a dark gray. Then put a dot with a sharpie for the shad dot. Actually take a look at my "mullet" pattern of this fly. It should be the next one on my play list. Its close, only has a black back. Maybe just don't use the black, make it gray instead. Everything else would be the same.
It works man! Just tough to tie. It takes a while, so you probably won’t ever see anything like it in Fly shops, they can’t make money on selling them because they take a half hour + to tie.
Hey, yeah nice. If your new to fly tying, this probably is not the fly for you. It’s quite complicated. Not saying you shouldn’t try it, but there are other flies better suited to new tiers. Good luck! Everything needed to tie each of the flies is in the description section of my videos.
Fantastic. I have put this in my "best category" of fly tying videos on youtube. No clutter to distract, all the steps are evident, good lighting and plain background. You also answered a key question with your water demo - as you were tying I thought you would have too much material on the bottom and it would spin. Count me in as a fan
+Derrick Beling thanks! Please check out my other videos, they all use the same format of video.
Derrick Beling I have to agree with you, this fly is just phenomenal!
I've been away from fly tying for over 40 years and am amazed at the advances in materials. Flexible goop and UV light. Are you kidding me? That's awesome!

Beautiful fly! Looks amazing in the water. I've never seen a streamer walk the dog so well. Keep up the good work!
+Hill Country Bass TV - why thank you! That's very kind to say.
McFly Angler what is the difference between ice dubbing and bullfrog dubbing?
well, i'd bite it if i were a bass. Nice fly; thanks for sharing!
+bob bobson thanks!
This is one cool looking fly , I haven't tied fly's for many years and am just getting back into it the uv gel mixed dubbing opens up a whole new aspect for me as I now want to make some tarpon fly's and doing this in a mullet pattern or tread fin would be fantastic , thanks for a great instructional video , tight lines! 👍🏼
Thank you! Yeah UV gel sure changed the game when they came out with it
WOW!!!! I absolutely have GOT to tie this fly!! I'll bet the smallies would CRUSH IT!
Thanks! Yeah it’s really good for bass.
Still my favorite streamer and why I subbed when you posted it. Thanks for all you've done and good luck in 2019!
Thanks man
Thanks man
do you know of some dubbing product that has fibers that are 2-3 inches long?
I believe what I used here, also lazer dub as well is I think
I really appreciate that you show your flies in the water!!!! I will definitely be trying this one.
Thank you, glad you enjoy it. Let me know how ya do with it.
What is the best size of hook to order from Amazon in the Gamagatsu SS15? I don't think you said in the video but might have missed it! Please advise? Thanks! And a great Vid!
Thank you! So the best hook size for me is size 1 for this fly. But it will work for size 2-1/0
Thank you for your quick answer! I bought 3 packs of Gamakatsu SS15 size 1/0 (30 Total). These hooks are sharp! I have subscribed with you! Thanks again!
I went on to fly tyers dungeon and was extremely surprised by how cheap the material is. I was curious about how much material comes in a "bag" and how much material comes in a "hank" from your experience.
What are you looking to buy? size of bags/hanks are different depending on the materials.
+Mc. Fly Lures mainly synthetic fibers for tying streamer patterns. I wish they had pictures of the hanks. I really don't want to wait a week or so, only to find out that I didn't order enough material lol
I love your streamers!! I use streamers at least 75% of the time. FTD is one of my favorite materials source . Thank you!
Thanks! Glad you like them. Yeah, FTD is great for getting lots of colors and materials without spending a fortune.
would wire wrap on the shank be enough to pull this fly down when using a floating line?
Um, I would do a lead wrap... Although I've had good luck with a floating line and a small split shot as well...
Was curious how to get this down in the water too. Mine just floated on top, wished I had some split shot with me today.
use an intermediate leader
Seriously though, I would love to buy your handmade flies !!
Thanks! Well I do sell flies. Let me know whatcha want. Best way is to private message me on Instagram so I can send you pictures and such of all the previous flies I’ve tied.
GREAT VIDEO! Love the attention to detail!
Thank you
Very nice tie, good pattern, REALLY appreciate the wet footage. L 👍👍
Thanks. Glad you liked it
First off i've been enjoying your videos lately and have found them very helpful.I followed your link for the Bullfrog dubbing to tie this fly.The link brings you to Big Bopper dubbing which i ordered by mistake by following the link.You might want to fix that.
They keep changing the links. Kinda annoying, sorry!
What are your top 5 flys for early march
Where are you fishing??? LOL. Every river is different
@@McFlyAngler missouri march meramac
Great fly pattern and tutorial. Thanks!
Thank you! :)
Thanks! I got a uv light and cement this Christmas. Does this fly survive many takes?
Awesome man! As for many takes, it depends on what type of fish. Something super toothy might destroy it quickly. Bass, I would say 3-6 strikes, (depending on how badly they crush it). It’s an awesome little fly, but no it’s not the most durable out there. Of course it’s not terrible either on that front.

Wonder if you could make the fly weedless by tying a monofilament guard? Great fly and video👍🏻
Probably could, but it might change the action... thanks man!
So beautiful... thanks for the video
Glad you like it.
Wow! Beautiful flies!:) How is the song called, which startet at 2:49min ?
+JdPerchhunter thank you. I haven't watched this in a while, I'll re watch tonight some time and tell ya what song
McFly Angler Thanks for your fast answer. I found the song ;)
+JdPerchhunter nice
Isn't the bullfrog dubbing a dry fly dubbing? And what color would I use for a bluegill or a baby bass imitation
+Vlogging With Arnold I believe it is, but it has long fibers which is perfect for streamers. I always use an intermediate fly line with this fly, so it sinks down good, but it holds enough air, that the fly rides abbot above the line.
I plan on doing a bluegill imitation on video soon, keep a lookout for the video which will show what colors to use...

Cheers mate for your reply, think it must just be me and yes the fish love it lol
I did use some stuff a while back (years ago) that smelled horrible. But nothing as bad as that 5 minute epoxy. Blech! HAHA This stuff is not too bad.
like the last part where you test the fly
many video didn't do that, and i have a hard imagine what it looks like in the water
Thanks! Yeah that’s something I try to do on all videos when applicable.
Your videos are the best ever keep up the good work and if it wasn't for you I would not have known that fly ' s could be so incredibly interesting now I want to fly fish

Very nice fly and good technique. Tight lines....
+Richard Katzman thank you
Great pattern...two thumbs up!
Thank you
McFly - beautiful streamer - I wanna tie it but don't have UV cement - do you think regular fly head cement would work ??? \BQ
No, it won’t cure flexible. Won’t give the same effect. Sorry.
GREAT Streamer!!!
Thanks
If that doesnt catch a fish all is lost. Great video
Thanks! Haha.
great looking fly, want to make one that looks like a threadfin shad
+Yeshua Adoneinu I have an American shad version of this on video. Let me know how your threadfin comes out
McFly Angler ty, im just starting to tie so it might be a while till im happy, you have the best tying videos, clear and quick, and nice patterns
+Yeshua Adoneinu thank you! Well I’m here to help ya if you have any questions.
do you have a video that describes what brand vise, and other hardware you use,, i couldnt find it
I did a review on the vice I used here on this video which was an Anvil Atlas. However I have since replaced my vice with a Renzetti (I plan on doing a review on that as well). But any of the name brand vices are usually great quality and will serve you well for a long wile. Just make sure everyone that reviews whatever vice you get say that the jaws are good quality. The most important thing with a vice is the Jaws. The rest is just prefference/luxury.
For my bobbin, I use a "rite bobbin" which are kinda pricy. If you are getting into tying, that really isn't needed. If you do need to purchase a bobbin, I highly recommend a ceramic tip bobbin, or a teflon coated one (so the thread doesn't get frayed). However, don't use those for wire, always use a super cheap bobbin for wire as wire will cut the teflon.
For scissors, I recommend a quality scissor. Dr. Slick makes quality stuff for not too much money $15-20 will get you good scissors. However there are some cheaper brands that produce decent scissors, but some just stink. A bad quality scissor can make tying frustrating.
For a whip finisher, I like using the matarelli style. But there are other ones out there and thats just based on preference. Or watch some video's on hand whip finishing if you want to save money. If you want to get the tool, then make sure its of a decent quality. Again, Dr. Slick makes a very good quality one for not too much money.
its also good to have a bodkin (basically a needle with a handle). You could even just have a needle with you and that could work. Many people make their own with a sewing needle and glue it into a piece of wood. But, you can pick them up for $5 or so. These don't have to be high quality, so a cheap one is fine. Just used to spread out cement, or to pick out your flies.
If your tying streamers, a stiff bristle toothbrush is handy.
To help thread your bobbin with your thread, then a bobbin threader is handy as well. You can get these pretty cheap also.
With all the above, you could tie 90-95% of flies out there without any other tools. You can worry about getting other ones later when you come across a pattern that a specific tool will help. For instance, many people get a parachute post holder for tying parachute's on flies like a parachute adams etc... But again, start small, don't spend a ton of money, then get what you need later for specific patterns.
What size are those eyes?
I think 5mm but I could be wrong, usually I put it in the description section...
Incredible as usual! I can’t wait to attempt tying this one.
Thanks, tell me how it works out for you
Nice fly and what's the song from 0:24 to 2:27
Thanks! So are you talking about the scottish bagpipe song? it comes free with my i-movie editing program. Honestly not sure where else you could get it.
McFly Angler thank you!
Looks like an effective pattern!
Thanks! Yeah it works well for the bass out here. Just not the easiest to tie... HAHA
Great fly!
Thanks! :)

LOL well thanks man! I am not sure these are worthy of a frame, but thank you very much! :)
I will be tying this pattern, very soon! Excellent!
Glad you like it! Try adding a lead wire wrap or even a beed head to get it to sink a bit faster also.

Whats the UV light for
+Craig Dobbin for curing the UV resin.
Ahh.cheers brother
No problem, you too.
Awesome pattern! I subscribed as soon as I heard celtic music on your videos! lol
Not all have celtic... I just choose the free stuff on my editing software. I switch between a few different ones I like. Cant go wrong with some bag pipes in my opinion! HAHA
Muy bueno 😃👍🏼
Gracias! 😊
Where can I buy a fly kit
I’m working at making a video on how to start fly tying. It will show what to piece together. I’d recommend getting the items individually as many fly kits offer some low quality and sometimes unusable tools
Tied this straight into the top of a tree first cast. Devastated
Oh I know, so frustrating with these long to tie flies! Lol
Good video i tie flies too
Thanks, and awesome man
Can you make that ind American shad color
+Bass Knuckles kid yeah I'm sure it can be done. I haven't tried before but I'm sure it can be. I'll look into the pattern and see if o can't come up with the right pattern at one point.
Mc. Fly Lures ok if you do I'm going to find all the material and make it we have a lot of shad
We're I live
Well, give it a try. Buy the right colors of the same materials. I am guessing white under body, with a gray top. Maybe even a medium gray to a dark gray. Then put a dot with a sharpie for the shad dot. Actually take a look at my "mullet" pattern of this fly. It should be the next one on my play list. Its close, only has a black back. Maybe just don't use the black, make it gray instead. Everything else would be the same.
Mc. Fly Lures ok thanks whould you plz sub to my channel
cool fly
+Wayne Miller thanks!
Btw .... fly tyers dungeon .... EXCELLENT RESOURCE FOR HIGH QUALITY INEXPENSIVE PRODUCTS. BRAVO!!!
+Wayne Miller yes, I love their stuff
I've never seen a fly like that
It works man! Just tough to tie. It takes a while, so you probably won’t ever see anything like it in Fly shops, they can’t make money on selling them because they take a half hour + to tie.
It's fantastic!
Thank you
Good streamer
Thanks
amazing.. ordering the stuff to make it.. thanks... let me know if i need anything else.. new bee here lol
Hey, yeah nice. If your new to fly tying, this probably is not the fly for you. It’s quite complicated. Not saying you shouldn’t try it, but there are other flies better suited to new tiers. Good luck! Everything needed to tie each of the flies is in the description section of my videos.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks

Man I would be heart broken if this fly gets snagged or destroyed by a fish. Looks amazing
