    I have zero interest in fishing and have never once thought about what goes into it but by god you are an ARTIST. Every thread you use, every feather every bead is so precise. The intricacy of sll the little bugs, crustaceans and weird critters you make it's just incredible, im in awe. And its so relaxing too, i love falling asleep to your videos, please keep making these

    So intricate, delicate, and beautiful! While part of my heart hurts knowing these lovely little creatures will get thrown in the water and chewed on by a fish, I understand that's their purpose, and it's always satisfying to see something fulfill its purpose. It's nice to know you fish with them. 🐟🐟🐟

      ​@@shetiesflies since I live in Alaska, " egg sucking leaches" tied with marabu and a red yarn head in different colors. Due to the fact that when salmon hit fresh water, they stop feeding. So you have to trigger their protective response. Also, I tie a goofy purple thing that was supposed to be a joke on a friend. Wound up that It catches the larger dollyvarden in the river . I tie horsehair bugs for pike and mosquito flies for higher up the river. Gnat flies and wooly buggers for other spices. Sometimes I tie flies on the bank to match the hatch of mayflies and the like. Nymphs or dry flies. Can tie most. But have never seen your crab flies. Am curious if that pattern would work up here. I carry a small graphite vise and a small selection of thread and hooks in my creel.

    Is the glitter just for aesthetic purposes or does it help attract what you want to catch? It’s interesting either way

    • @shetiesflies
      @shetiesflies  14 днів тому +4

      These should sink belly down so the fish wouldn’t see the glitter at first, but once it sinks and goes through a fish’s line of sight, the glitter could definitely act as an attractor 😊

    I love learning about niche hobbies! You very clearly love doing this and I appreciate the effort and attention to detail you put into your crafts. I’m curious, do you plan these designs all out before starting the project, similar to having crochet/knitting patterns, or do you just freestyle it?

    • @shetiesflies
      @shetiesflies  9 днів тому +1

      I’m typically using patterns and then embellishing/tweaking to my liking. I’ve been a fiber artist for over a decade and have a room in my house dedicated to all things wool (knitting, weaving, spinning, sewing, felting) so I appreciate the comparison!

    Do the flies get used for fishing once you finish them?
    How much would one of these gorgeous flies cost to purchase (if they were for sale)?

      @shetiesflies  13 днів тому

      We do use them if they make sense for our area/species. 😊 I haven’t worked out what they’d cost made in this style, but a more generic Alphlexo crab would probably be fairly reasonable

    Did you do a swim test ? How does this fly land in water ?

    • @shetiesflies
      @shetiesflies  13 днів тому +1

      I did!! It’s a tiny bit splashy, but no more than a typical Alphlexo crab. Sinks fairly quickly belly side down and imitates a fleeing crab when stripped. I really dig how it behaves in the water!
