WOW, what a Super Nice Buggy Fly ! Mega Thx again. I’m learning so much from your videos as I’m starting my fly tying endeavors
Ha! I have been using this pattern for the past 2 months. Tan or Gray strike indicator material. I had to giggle when I saw the video.
Good job as always Charlie
The one thing I like about Craig's patterns, I have been tying the Sparkle dun since the mid-1980s is that they are quick to tie and fairly cheap and they work way better than you would think they would. I like tying with Hare's Ear Masks, I tied a lot of dry flies with it that just plan work. The older I get the less I want to tie complicated or time-consuming flies.
I am with on simple flies. I tie a simple red thread body with 6 strands of deer hair for wing, and 4 strands of feather tail
« Dirty sloppy body… » Spank that fly, Charlie! Hahahaha.
Hello Charlie! Amazing looking fly
Nice!!
Fly tying is everything anyone can think of to put something on a hook. Fish will take a steel ball with a feather on it. LOL. This is a hell uvAh great looking fly. Thanks
Thank you 🙏
Love the fly, the tie, and the material substitution! Thanks CC; btw when will your dry fly book be published?
I plan on writing it this winter so it's a while out yet.
Any advice for a novice who keeps breaking this 14/0 thread (when tying the wing on, especially)? I really don't feel like I'm putting that much tension on it...
stupid question, does the hares mask make it sink? Do you have to be careful how much you put on?
While not a waterproof dubbing, when treated with flotant and coupled with the macrame yarn wing, this one floats pretty well
I noticed you tie it with the wing with the loop horizontal to the body rather than vertical which you showed on the fly before you tied the video fly...I know the original has a vertical loop as well, any particular reasoning behind this?
Surface area=flotation
Isn't it sacrilege to swap zlon out of a Craig Matthews pattern? :) Guy is trying to sell his stash, man.
