That is probably, honestly the finest streaking i have ever seen. Flawless tying!
STUNNING! As ever...Thank you. Chris Sandford
Barry your an incredible tyer it's a pleasure to watch you.
Thanks Shane, always good to get positive feedback.
killer tie! very well done
Absolutely fantastic
Outstanding!! Enough said!
I just tried this while you were tying it. I set the head on fire and it stinks to high heaven. I will get these ready and do my burning outside from now on. It is the middle of the night and my wife is terminally ill. She is also complaining of the smell. I have to spray or something. You might mention how smelly it is to burn deer hair in future. I work nights with the care of my wife and do all my tying while she is asleep. Soon she will be asleep again. Thanks for sharing. All the best, I can't wait to tie some Christmas trees! Sean
Damn nice job... Great tutorial.
Thanks, Hoss.
Excellent tutorial Barry.
Thanks Mike.
Hey Barry, that was one fine looking piece of deer hair. I know that the center back is premium hair from the white tail deer I've harvested over the years. My last buck was outstanding, very long and thick and very dark, looked much like your piece. I read where the mask is very good for comparaduns and I saved one, even though the gentleman at the fly shop said it's very hard to find the right grade, and he had to sort through many. Well I've never seen one for sale so I saved mine and used it with good results. I wasn't able to save the ears but I did on another because it looked like good dubbing but never used it (I wanted to make a deer's ear nymph ;-) I'm looking forward to your post on preparing deer hide and mask. I'm going to watch your deer dubbing video next. Coincidentally, a viewer of Davie McPhail commented that he used to go Fran Betters Adirondack fly shop to learn fly tying and Fran showed him how to dub deer hair. The still of your dub video reminded me of Betters piggy back nymph. Thanks Barry, I'm learning alot from you!
Super, this ist a very nice Fly and a great Video. In Germany we say "geil".
Thank you very much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great learnings here Barry thanks. Inspiration to source Roe hair and Dyneema Thread.
Thanks Larry.
best I've ever seen.barry im only starting out fly tyeing my friends shoot deer is the center back good for all dunn and caddis
Thanks Maz man, Yeah if you are spinning deer hair, centre back is best, but all the other hair is also useful. If you can get a whole skin, take it. You prepare the skin just as you do the mask.
Cool. Thanks Bender!
No problem Paul, glad you liked it.
Brilliant Barry
Thanks Christopher.
Wow! Just found this one dude. Brilliant! I’ll try the technique (albeit with lower grade hair! lol) and see how I get on..... Thanks for sharing these tips on deer hair.
Yeah, let me know how you get on Dude.
Is dynama a thread that can only be bought in the UK? I have tried to locate it in the U.S. and haven't found it. I do live in a large but sparsely populated states so there are not many shops. I am just wondering about it. I might be able to find it online. Nice caddis. Sean
damn this stays a winner....
Here we have Mule Deer or Whitetail Deer. Thankfully our season is in the early winter and I much prefer Mule Deer for spinning. Untanned. The best was or is a big chunk of hide that was nailed hair side in against a shed for three years. Surprisingly there were no bugs in it but we needed a bandsaw to cut the thing up. Best deer hair for spinning I ever had.
Sounds great Kerry, I nail my sis up hair side to wall, but I don't leave them for three years...
@@Thefeatherbender yeah I just happened upon this one when I had met him initially. Asked him if he ever fed his deer. We were friends ever since so he gave me half.
Thank you Barry, Excellent information on deer hair especially the cleaning / Stacking. I Tried it first attempt was a disaster, but progressing now. brilliant the way singeing the head pulls the wing right into shape . One small question Barry what colour is that dubbing ? (Tan?) i have been using browns and Olive (Veniards)
Thanks again, all of your uploads are very much appreciated!
Hi John, Sorry, but You Tube has only just let me know about your comment! Yes it's tan and it's Veniard's super fine. Thanks and sorry again!
WOW! speechless.... are you attending largest fly show in the US? Somerset NJ January 2017...
Hi Jason, I do about 15 international shows each year but I have never been invited to the Somerset show!
Grazie.
Many thanks Andrea for your support!
@@Thefeatherbender the least I can do, apart from buying the book 😄 Thank you for sharing your qualified knowledge and expertise
Классная муха! Благодарю !👍🤝🇰🇿
Thank you
Barry, I was wondering how you preserve your roe pelts - I've kept a nice 10" wide strip from the back of a first year roe doe from last weekend's hunt, scraped and salted it, what would you suggest to keep it in good usable condition? Thanks.
rosbifet froggy Hi, as nobody's come back to you on this one, maybe I can make a few helpful comments. I've been preserving bits and pieces of a variety of animal furs, tails etc over 40 years or so. If you want the skin lovely and soft like Barry's I think you've got work on your hands, but if you just want to preserve it usable for tying I'd say don't put salt anywhere near it! Salt attracts moisture and your skin will be forever soggy. Scrape as much fat and tissue off the skin as possible and rub in lots of Alum, nice and thoroughly. Leave skin side up to dry with a good sprinkling of Alum on top. When it's totally dried out dust it down and pack it away. You might want to add something to guard against moths and mites. I don't pretend to be an expert, but I've had no bother doing it this way and I think life's a bit short for spending hours and cash treating skin which is ultimately just waste.
Hi, Sorry, but You Tube has only just let me know about your comment! Callum has given you a good reply but I could add the following. If you salt it don't let the salt sit on the skin, just give it a good rubbing with a coarse salt and then brush off the remaining. Then place the piece in-between some newspaper to extract any remaining moisture. You can the nail it, stretching it at the same time, skin up onto a piece of wood and let it dry for a few days. You can also watch this tutorial I made. ua-cam.com/video/0e-y6I8dDnc/v-deo.html Thanks and sorry again!
How small a hook size can you do that with? Looks strait forward, but I can see the deceptively and intriqueing skill involved with the deer hair. You make it look easy, but...... Very nice. THis is one of those imitations I think that represent caddis that actually dive beneath the surface to deposit their eggs. In the UK and Eastern USA they are referred to as Grannom caddis?? Maybe? Like UK's Davie McPhail, you bring something of a different style and approach that I really enjoy watching.
Hi Dean, and thanks! Well its actually easier on smaller hook sizes! The smaller the hook the less deer hair that has to be used... Its a skating caddis so its designed to be pulled in short strips through the surface, a real fish attractor!
Could you make a video on how you tan the deer hide
Hi, I will be doing a video on how to skin and cure a deer mask which is much the same as a deer hide.
Hi, pleased to Look at your Videos. Ist Happens to me sometimes That the deerhair sometimes Turnes round the Hook After Bindung in, what would you suggest?
Hi RH, You have to tie in the deer hair with very tight turns, and then make 3 or 4 very tight turns in front on the bunch you have tied in just around the hook shank, before you tie in the next bunch. Good luck!
Thanks a lot, ist is working very well. The preparation of your deerhaed is great. Is ist possible to prepare a Komplete deer in the Same way?
I like the relativ cleen way to dry the „Decke“. I certanly could get a komplete deer from my hunting friends .
@@rudigerhahn9331 Thanks and good to hear. Yes, a little more work but you can do the same with a whole skin. Good luck with it!
That must be a halfways sharp scissor You've got there.
Do you use a special kind of thread? Mine is breaking all the time as i pull to spinn the hair...
Hi Jonas, yes I do. The thread is called Dyneema but you can also use GSP thread. Heres a video just about this thread that I use for deer hair. ua-cam.com/video/FkO2Z4MwBAk/v-deo.html
Thanks for the info. Using normal thread had been frustrating!
"Anything" thick that flattens helps. I've used a lot of "fireline", that I found while fishing.
Brand of bobbin please.? Looks interesting.
Hi Børge, I use the Marc Petitjean TT Bobbin holder.
Would you be interested in selling me a couple pieces of that hair?
Hi Shawn, no problem at all but the problem is I only shoot a few of these late season deer each year!
Barry - A 'heads up'. UA-cam are stuffing this film with ads. It's not your fault, obviously, but it really intrudes. I feel an ad at the start and finish might be reasonable, but interrupting ads (two at a time) just throw what is otherwise a brilliant instructional sequence. It's greedy.
Thanks Duofold, sorry about that, as you say very little I can do with that I'm afraid. I can choose to have advertising but YT decide how many and where... Fortunately it's only on a few chosen videos.
