April great to have more woman in the sport. way to go . there's a lot of men who are just pigs. but true fly fisherman apriciate your true fly tying talents. thanks for sharing your vidios with us. happy tying and fish on. god bless
i just purchased my first rotary vice. some say you don't need all that fancy schmancy stuff. old timers i swear!!! i have an old clunker clamp style that i used for a while. you have to loosen too much to turn your fly and risk your hook falling out. i can see all around it now and do other things i couldn't do before. also, when you space your feathers like that and say it looks life like in the water really made me think about tying my own like that. thanks alot! i've watched some of your other videos too! very nice fish you landed. wish i could live at the ocean!!!!
April is truly a work of art to watch both fishing and tying. To look at her is perfection.To watch her cast a fly line is perfection. Truly any mans perfect partner. Great job April keep up the good work .
Nicely done...at a pace where each step is easily comprehended. Use of the f/nail clippers is both ergonomic and economic at the same time. Ya, I'd fish that on the Bulkley in a heartbeat. Cheers, KD Smithers, BC
Nice work April...& the use of a nail-clipper is a neat trick lol.. I wonder if she fishes her flies as well ? I've only ever seen two vids of lady fly-tyers . I like the expression of total concentration on her face..she looks so happy tying .
Try it. I took a course with her and thought the same thing at first. I don't cut everything with it, but it does a great job cutting the feathers close to the tube.
Great tying! God this girl must wonder if all fishermen are pervs, give her a break and focus on the fact she's a fine tier and angler, just because she is blessed with stunning looks doesn't mean her talents are of secondry importance.
It's an intruder fly, krystal flash, craft fur / arctic fox fur, rhea (which she used) or maribou ( however cold water destroys maribou) can use ostrich as well if you are in a pinch.
Its almost like her beauty is a detriment. This woman is a phenomenal fly fisherman. Yet we all (including me) struggle to see past that. She's that beautiful.
i know this is older vid so dont know if you will see it but if you do im wondering why tie on a tube over tying right to the hook ive never really seen anyone using tube flies before
Am I the only one who didn't notice what she was doing. LOL, PS, April. Were ever you are, please stay healthy. Very best regards to you and your family. God bless and good luck fishing.
Hi Larry! Have a look at adh-world. We listed some materials below that she used for tying: www.adh-fishing.com/adh-world/adh-fishing-tv/fly-tying-video-steelhead-fly Best regards, Ben from adh-fishing
Hi Rick! April is using a Tiemco Ceramik Bobbin: www.adh-fishing.com/fly-tying/fly-tying-tools/bobbin-holders/tiemco-straight-heavy-duty-bobbin Tight Lines, AK
I use $100.00 pair of scissors. April uses 0.59 cent nail clippers. Think about that ... your teaching skills are very precious. Best regards and God bless.
Totally confused! I am a fly fishing newbie. Just bought a fly rod and I have been practicing my fly casts in a field. Now I am trying to learn about tippets, leaders and flies. I stumbled on this video looking at types of flies to use. Forgive my ignorance, but..... I see fathers, I see fluffy stuff, I see sewing thread but I see no HOOK. How do you catch a steelhead if there is no hook? It looks like the fly is attached to some sort of steel rod
Tube fly. The tube is hollow. You put your tippet through it and then attach a hook at the back. There is a place in the back of the tube that is bigger in diameter and your "stinger" hook-eye sits inside there. A style of fly used so you can size hooks differently and also get more life out of your fly because the hook usually comes away during the fight and the fly is not left to get mangled by the fish.
Oh please marry me! Lol...ur awesome and there is nothing greater than watching talent like urs... And u love fishing!!! That's extra points...passion for fishing! Awesome! Great video:)... Hope you dont I'm not a creepo...Lol. Its just tremendously impressive:)
Can I ask you something? I don't think this question fits the fly tiers? Does head cement break down upon contact with plastic worms and lures b/c it is acrylic? Worm burn to be specific? I don't wanna to use it if it does. I am going to start tying my own trebles. Thanks.
Good thing i just scanned thru this vid...why no talking?? No explaining why shes doing what shes doin?? Useless vid, yeah great a hottie tying a fly, but if she isnt speaking other than being sorta short with the people around this demo. Like i said good thing i watched really only 4 mins...did she explain anything in the rest of it?

Indeed, a sparse yet effective steelhead intruder fly in their favorite colors too ( blue / pink ).
One of the best fly tying vids......very easy on the eye!
She pays so much attention to detail. I don't fish tubes just because of where I fish but this fly looks amazing. Awesome

That's the coolest fly I've ever seen very cool and intricate. I love the colors :)

Thanks for the video. Great job, April.
Jsem nevěděl,že tak pěkný ženy dělají takové věci! Šikovná!!!
This is the first fly fishing video I watched where I didn't spend the majority of time wathcing the fly being tied. Just wow, completely mesmerized.
What flies did she tie, missed that part
This lady is a top top fly tyer👍
Congratulations ... really lovely the highly capable flies. Greetings from an old Italian rivers Wolf
Very nicely done and a great video. Your a credit to the sport :)
What a beautiful fly tyer
i could watch april vokey tie flies all day!
thelurewasher you would need to watch all day because she friggin takes all day.
Great tying!
God this girl must wonder if all fishermen are pervs, give her a break and focus on the fact she's a fine tier and angler, just because she is blessed with stunning looks doesn't mean her talents are of secondry importance.
Congrats April. First time I have seen a girl making a fly. Nice lure!
Love the looks of this fly. Would love to see a material list of the ribbons and feathers used to make this fly.

Милая вязальщица, изящная, просто красавица! И приманка тоже - класс! 👍😘

i know this is older vid so dont know if you will see it but if you do im wondering why tie on a tube over tying right to the hook ive never really seen anyone using tube flies before
I remember when Dan bailies fly shop used to have 6-8 ppl tying in the front window of the store. I guess chiiinna put an end to that.
April, can you or someone else please tell me what it is about blues, purples and pinks that attract salmon and steelhead so much??
Mrs.Vokey,beautiful tying...i have to but you one of mine!
stunning, and the flys no bad aswel
April, can you do a tutorial on spinning ostrich? I suck at it.
do you have any new tube fly videos april
best reguards steve
What material was used for the dubbing?
Am I the only one who didn't notice what she was doing. LOL, PS, April. Were ever you are, please stay healthy. Very best regards to you and your family. God bless and good luck fishing.
She takes the time to do it right.and that's no bad thing.
I just bounced around the video but I never saw her put this tube fly to a hook. I guess I missed it.
Very wilkinson shrimp like with the colours ?.
April, I am curious, the material you are using, tying this steelhead tube flies ?
Hi Larry!

wow
awesome :D both ... :)
AV♥
Really. Try it the next time you tie an intruder style tube fly.
Simple the hardest thing to do when on the vise.
April is very well known within the fly fishing industry and is a total bad ass, all of this is known.But damn she makes fly tying sexy.
Oh please marry me! Lol...ur awesome and there is nothing greater than watching talent like urs... And u love fishing!!! That's extra points...passion for fishing! Awesome! Great video:)... Hope you dont I'm not a creepo...Lol. Its just tremendously impressive:)
Elpresador are going fishing with her.
Shes perfect.
What happened to you were have you been ???
I think she is one of the most beautiful women in the world.
Not a place for flirt
SUPERBE !! ;-)
I prefer the squidro
Lol, it's a tube fly. The leader goes through the tube, and the hook goes on the end of the leader behind the fly.
Wow, in all my years I never associated fly tying and sexy. I like it.
Лапочка.
Pink :)
I LOVE April Vokey
So this is the famous April Vokey....
Can I ask you something? I don't think this question fits the fly tiers? Does head cement break down upon contact with plastic worms and lures b/c it is acrylic? Worm burn to be specific? I don't wanna to use it if it does. I am going to start tying my own trebles. Thanks.
wow..:)
The fly is nice but nail cutters for material?? Really? Nail cutters?
