    I think it is a cool-looking midge that perfectly matches the beautiful color of the wing hackle and the body of the fly, giving off a sense of life.

      One question, what do you use to thin down the varnish when it starts to get a bit thick? And could I use dyed black peacock herl instead of pheasant tail as I don't have any in black? OK sorry that was 2 questions lol thanks again.

    • @callumclark3358
      @callumclark3358 4 роки тому +1

      In case Davie doesn't get back to you, these varnishes are usually cellulose, so you would need cellulose thinners, white spirit won't work. As you only need a tiny amount, it's better to beg, borrow or steal some, because it's more economical to just buy some more varnish.
      I would use black goose or turkey, I think peacock would be a bit much. Black dyed mole hair at a pinch?

    • @DavieMcPhail
      @DavieMcPhail  4 роки тому +1

      Hi dongil123,
      Callum is right as I do use a cellulose varnish which comes from Veniards and they sell the thinners for it which I add to the varnish as it gets a little heavy/thick..Yes dyed black peacock would make a great body though I would trim it to shape which I do on diawl-bachs when I want a finer body..
      All the very best Davie..

    Excellent Davie as always very neat and polished but a suggestion if I may to explain something which is very basic on nearly every video you do of buzzers or nymphs where you wind on pheasant tail then something the opposite way to reinforce it perhaps to explain it better you could say that the reinforcement whether wire or thin tinsel is wound in an opposite helix to the pheasant tail fibres i.e a slight bias that everybody automatically has when winding something on a hook has an opposite slant so it lays across each slant of the pheasant tail winding therefore reinforcing it

    @krallmi48 4 роки тому

    I did enjoy it, Davie... thank you.
    I'm still working through all the videos here... back to front. I've been in a section with a number of flies like this one in they have laid down hackle-tip wings. I've messed with using mallard flank barb clumps for wings of black ants. It works to an extent... especially if the wings are folded together. I've not had much success using this material to tie spread wings. I'm wondering if you might have ideas how to go about that?
    Just to say, for the ants I tie the abdomen, then the gap with one or two turns of hackle, then 1/2 the thickness of the combined thorax/head. I tie the mallard barb clump tight to the front of this, then add the rest of the front dubbing thickness over the mallard barbs, which lays the wing down and makes it look like it's coming out of the correct place. The fly doesn't float particularly well, but ants don't float well in my experience.
