I love the Thin Mint. I tie it with a black nickel bead and a little darker brown marabou and hackle than you do, but basically same. This is one of my go to flies in lakes and streams.
Might sound crazy but this one is up there with my favourite ones yet, there are so many different colours and colour combinations you could do for the tail in such a way that you can easily let loose of your creativity and adapt it to so many places And it looks soooooo nice as well, I don’t know anything about flying tying but I do know that from the moment I get the chance and right materials I’ll tie soooo many of these
We have quite a few of them already up on the channel. This one is also pretty easy but more on the intermediate side. You’ll find many on the channel that are far easier
Even with 3 color stacks- that tail is way too sparse. Nobody likes an anemic marabou tail. Especially as they tend to thin out over the course of fishing it.
you have inspired me and many others to start fly tying. I just want to say thank you and have a blessed day.
Thanks Tyler! Always great hearing these videos inspire people to pick up the hobby. Hope you are enjoying it and good luck out of the water!
Absolutely beautiful fly and workmanship!!!!

Sounds like a good-looking fly. It's fun to play with the colors on this one

This exact fly was the first fly I caught a salmon on
Awesome!
You should absolutely be the voice of how it's made
Watched this with a possible future, she was hard to find and assures me shes feather tolerant. Hoping for a keeper.
Beautiful fly. You said to wrap the maribu forward instead of the peacock herl. Might want to edit that. Great stuff nonetheless.
Can you make a tutorial for a easy beginner fly?

My go to nothing else is working fly
