Now I wish I had these when I was a kid - now I would have caught a ton of fish. Now you know I was gathering the crawling stone cases and using what's on the inside for bait. A ton of them. Must have gathered a solid 100 to use a bait over my lifetime. Solid love your video here. Please keep at it. : )
That was a dubbed body masterclass. Respect👍
Davie, Thank you for making your videos. I learn fast from your layed back approach and enjopy watching them immensely. Won't be long and the proof will be in the pudding.Have a good day!!!.
Lovely fly, Davie.
I always enjoy your caddis imitations.
Thanks for sharing. Best regards.

Hi Alexander Hagen,
Yes it works for me, tye it in different sizes especially an eight which has caught many grayling for me...
All the very best Davie
Hi William Bower,
Lead tape would be fine as well, I like the colour I get from the wire at times it's certainly worth trying.
All the very best Davie
Hi Slick Roode,
I bought the pantone pens in a pack of 6 a while back, I have sent you a link to them...I'm glad you liked the fly...
All the very best Davie
Hi Martin,
I have sent you some links to the materials I used, I hope this helps you and I'm glad you enjoy the videos...
All the very best Davie
Very nice pattern!
This is perfect for the hooks I'm salvaging from my earlier attempts at tying happy 2017 and thanks Davy
Hey Daive, If you take a lighter to that body material. Close just to heat it up you can stretch it thin and it ties in very well. You can do it to the other end when tying off too and the end disappears with the thread turns. All the best to you and yours. God bless.

Hi Ken,
I can't promise a classic salmon fly but I do hope to get a few flies done over the winter months...All the very best Davie
Hi Sean,
What you did with your pen would work fine in my view and even work better..Thanks again for all your kind words..
All the very best Davie
Hi eddy Keers,
I've sent you a link to the adapter and thanks for the kind comments....
All the very best Davie
A huge fan of all of your videos - thanks so much for sharing your artistry!. Graciously would like to ask if there is anyway you could send that link to materials to me as well as well?
Great looking caddis Davie. Sure glad your back my friend. Always love seeing your new ones. Are you going to be doing any classic salmon flies later on?
Best Regards, Ken
I definitely need to tie up this one.thanks
Hi Davie, Great Video as usual, always a pleasure watching you at work. you mentioned using Laser Lite in the tying, where did you get this from, Cant find it anywhere. Also you have converted your pro torch to electricity, is there a kit available for conversion. Keep up the good work. Regards John
thats a juicy looking CADDY! Awesome i like it~!
lunkertime one other question I have is I noticed when I'm using rubber bands and some latex materials in some flys I have tied up when I'm done and ready for the head cement varnish destroys the before my eyes !!! All my work is goey busted mess in seconds! any advice why this happens and what's the solution??
Hi Davie, is there a reason you tie these on straight shank hooks? Is that how they appear under water?
Hi Hencape,
If you turn over a stone you will find these caddis larva very easy and see that they crawl around much like a caterpillar although tyed on a curved or a straight hook makes very little difference to the fish as I have caught many fish on both..I would say though I do like tying them on a straight hook..
All the very best Davie..
Hi FELIPE SOUZA,
I do have an ant pattern on youtube which would be worth tying, I'll send you a link to it.
All the very best Davie
Hi davie great fly could tell me where you got your torch converter from looked everywhere....many thnx....keep up the great tying
Great video
Hey Davie, do they sell Pantone pens in the U.S. do you know? I can't seem to find one anywhere. I have been putting yellow down, and before it dries using a med green. It is as close to olive as I can get. Sort of a sick looking olive but dark green just doesn't lighten up enough over yellow. I will tie a few of these, I haven't come across anything like this in all the videos I watch. Thanks for sharing. All the best to you, Sean
Hi Davie, what make are the hooks you are using for this pattern? Also, I cannot seem to find the ribbing, it appears to have gone out of production? Any ideas? Keep up the good work, I really enjoy and benefit from your videos. Martin
David, you are the best! I am an apprentice in the art of tying and have tried to tie an ant specific Brazil, very common in the region where I practice fly fishing. The animal is this
Atta sexdens rubropilosa
with wings
any suggestions?
Very cool fly, I noticed you said dyed thin skin. Can you do a video of how you dye your materials?
Hi Dave, love your work. I've tried many of your patterns myself and feel because of them I'm able to tie something that I'm pleased with, however not sure about the trout :-) Is it possible to include in your comments: where, when and how you would fish them? Example would be Lake, Spring, slow retrieve. Tight lines. Paul
Hi Paul Dickens,
I'm glad you enjoy the videos and that they have helped you tye a better fly.. I have mentioned in some of my videos how I fish certain patterns but to be honest I do prefer not to do this and concentrate on tying the fly as this is what I know best..Maybe in the future I could do a few videos of fishing methods as it's much easier to show someone rather than trying to explain it..
All the very best Davie
Thank you the link sir.
nice fly davie ! i am gona try it on grayling ! does it work ? :P
Is there a slight bend in that hook Davie? I noticed it when you were varnishing the copper wire.
Hi Dewi Jones,
I did put a small bend in the hook to encourage the natural look of the fly...
All the very best Davie
Hi Davie,
Just a quick one, how would you fish this one on a still water ? Slow retrieve or static ? (Or both)
Hi Gareth,
I would normally fish this pattern in the river though you could fish it easily in a Stillwater and fished just as you said slow or static..
All the very best Davie..
Davie,
Nice tying. Do you have a source for that Pantone 119 marker, I had one for years but it ran out a few months ago and I can't find any online.
The Best!
Hi michael farrell,
I've sent you a link to the torch converter...ATB Davie
Davie, where do I find the ac coverter for my flashlight? I can't find one anywhere that I've looked.
Hi Papa Bear Outdoors,
I have attached a link to the Wholesale company that sells this adapter to the shops so if you look at their stockists list you may find a shop close to you that can order it for you..
All the very best Davie

Davie, I recently shot a pheasant rooster. Could you please list the patterns you've tied using male pheasant feathers so I could look them up and tie them? Thanks!
Hi Redrerra527,
There's many patterns that you could tye with the feathers from the pheasant here's a small list to get you started, all are on my channel; Pheasant Tail, Polish Hare's Ear and Beaded Nymph, Cruncher and finally the Mrs Simpson..These are some of the most popular flies that are on my channel...
All the very best Davie

best tying.
I need to get some new material 🇺🇸
Hi, Davie. Your dubbing needle seems to be a tool with a needle that can be replaced. Is there a specific name for tool?
he's using an exacto blade holder. you can find it at any craft store. it seems he has drilled the center slot section to now hold a needle.
nice!
Where is that stream you show at the end of the video?
Hi Arkansas Red,
It's above Wolfclyde bridge on the River Clyde here is a link to it for you to see..www.sabre-roads.org.uk/wiki/index.php?title=Wolfclyde_Bridge
All the very best Davie
Hi Davie, thanks so much for the great videos! I have a question would lead tape be fine for the underbody? Thanks, and check out my channel and sub back please!
Hi, Davie. Your dubbing needle seems to be a tool with a needle that can be replaced. Is there a specific name for tool?
Hi JFonFly,
I use a Xcelite Craft Knife holder in which I put a needle as I wore out the dubbing needles very quickly so all I do is replace the needle when it breaks, it's perfect for the job...Here's a link to the one I use... www.amazon.co.uk/Xcelite-Xn-100-Light-Craft-Knife/dp/B00002NB6G
All the very best Davie
***** Thank you, Davie. Any particular type of needle? JF
Hi JFonFly,
I buy a pack of needles of different sizes which last me a long time...
All the very best Davie
