Hi Vladimir. Lots of information in this video and a good tip to quiet your squeaky bobbin. You may use the same trick on the rod ferrules when putting it together to allow the pieces to separate easily when taking the rod apart. You are definitely a perfectionist when it comes to your tying techniques and your pragmatic approach to everything in life. I love it.
Thanks so much for your excellent, no nonsense videos. I have been tying for many years, but you always provide some terrific, practical tips that make my tying better.
Well said Vladimir !...I've noticed if marketers add the words' fly fishing' to a sentence, product packaging, branding etc, you can watch the selling price rise many times😅even if the trout don't...thank you for all the very helpful tips, especially regarding appropriate quality UV resin for nymphs/dries/shrimps and compatible wavelength lamps/torches...love your jig off bead concepts and tyings...and the squeaky nose trick 😅
back when fishing rods had metal ferrules an ancient relative of mine told me to rub the end of the rod section on my nose to lube the connection in the ferrule. It works, but it also turns sticky after a while and eventually causes more trouble than it's worth. A tiny bottle of light oil for sewing machines has a precise applicator, is cheap, and has lasted me many years even though I use it often on pliers, bobbins, electric clippers, and -- once -- a sewing machine
I just bought jewelry uv and the recommended light. I refused to buy the expensive fly store product. Also bought about 12 small bottles of colored dyes and small metal tipped applicator bottles. You can even use acrylic paint to color it. Thank you for the video. This is a very nice fly.
Do the same thing to your rod sections, rubbing it on the side of your nose. The oils act as a lubricant, and you will be amazed how easy the rod breaks down. Far less likely to have stuck sections.
Buzzers for early season on reservoirs are best with UV as you want them to sink and be durable. I bought some resin from a well known online retailer and it works great. I bought a light from a brand and also resin and to be very honest the battery for the light is a right pain to charge not worth the additional cost at all. Yes the resin is a bit greasy after it cures but it’s nothing a touch of varnish cannot fix.
As always great video with valuable tips. You have put out several videos using Moose hair. Quick tip, if the hair starts to split due to being dry. Soak a few hairs in a little water and hair conditioner. Will tame the hairs and make pliable. Thank you for sharing your talents 👍 Tight Lines 🪰
Last year I had a bottle of loon thick uv it applied nice hardend nice then a couple months later every fly I used it on the application area turned a green color .this was hundreds of perdigons and wing cases on hares ears ,I was so upset,I use solar rez now

@@tomt5176 thank you so much. There is one more comment same as yours about ferrules, i will have to give it a try. Thanks so much 🍻
Great video. Bang on, the 'fishing exchange rate' on things that are otherwise available elsewhere is shocking at times. Cheers
Sure it is. And for fly fishing seems even more high. Sometimes it seems illogical.
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers 🍻
Yes, agreed.

Thank you for your kind comment. Especially about no nonsense. I often wander if i talk too much. 🍻😀

Smart move. Acrylic? How long to dry? I haven't tried it before.
I haven't used the acrylic yet but the UA-cam video said that the thicker probably better quality paints work better.
@ramani1008 i will try. I have some paint at my work 😁😁

@@DavidJones-vy6cn i would never think of it. Thank you 😀🍻
Old school lol. Learned that from my dad, and I’m 69 yrs old!

As long as it works well and you consider it as a worthy investment. I just like to experiment all the time 🍻😀
Great video.
Thanks my friend
