Hey Tim, No particular reason really.. If I want it to sink faster I will just use a heavier bead, its easier to see in my fly box what size bead instead of wondering if I added weight to a certain fly or not, I haven't had any problems with this method and they still get down super quick!
@@TheFlyFiend makes sense. I just always see people adding weight to their nymphs and wonder why so much weight would be necessary. I find weight to be an action killer in my experience
Great video! Jig style patterns are a favorite of mine on my local spring creek. I was wondering how you like to fish this pattern in high water: do you just high stick it or do you add jigging action to get some attention in colored water?
Why wouldn't you leave the CDC full and wrap once if you were making two full wraps with a stripped side??? Just a curious Nelly over here.... Great little bug tied on a Fly Fiend Jig hook and a Fly Fiend slotted bead..... Thanks Fly Fiend.
I Find When I Strip It On One Side The CDC Can "Breathe" More When Water Flowing Threw It, Wrapping A Full Gets Kinda Bunched Up And Restricts Flow, But Its All Personal Preference ! Thanks For Watching!
I’m new to fly tying, and I love your videos. Even if I don’t tie the actual fly, I always pick up on something from your tutorials.
Nice tying and as a result a very nice fly. Love the CDC collar 👍.
Sure will tie some.
Tight lines 🎣 from the Čech Republic 🇨🇿.
used several times on local stillwater and caught each time - even on the drop. Thanks for the pattern.
Awesome to hear Drew! It’s by far my top selling fly!
like the idea of the cdc hares ear blend
Thanks! Easy To Make, 50/50 Blend.
Killer variation, great tie!
That 1 little pink tail you missed bothers me lmao u touched it like 4 times 😂😂✂️✂️
Another great tie. I noticed that you rarely add lead to your Euro style nymphs. Any particular reason?

Yes I Just High Stick It, Our Creeks Arnt Very Deep So Even If Its Higher Its Still Fishable High Sticking.
I think I'm going to play around with different movements this year.

Heard that. Thanks for the vids.
Hello, Are you making flies that look good to the human eye or for the fish?
The Fish, I Fish The Heck Outta All Flies I Tie.
