- Another great pattern with a simple tool. If you enjoyed the detached body crane fly you’ll love this mayfly. Heres the full video on how to prepare the material and weld the body. Followed by the full tying sequence for the mayfly dry fly. These detached bodies are not only super realistic but they also float like a cork and are almost bullet proof.
Heres a link to the extended body tool:

These are truly works of art , worthy of taking the most beautiful fish in any ones river.

Wow! What a pattern, I was speechless when the bit of foam was used. I can't wait to try and tie one up. Thank you so much.
Thanks NCF.
NOTHING LESS THAN AN ARTIST OF FLY TYING ,,, THANK YOU FOR SHARING SHARING THIS AND YOUR DEDICATION TO ALL OF US,,, BE SAFE TXS AGAIN.
Thank you EJ.
That's the best mayfly representation I've ever seen. The Trout in Lough Mask county Mayo, will fall for it....👍
Hi Paul, I do hope so. I fished Lough Mask 25 years ago and loved it. I do hope that I will make it back one day...
Pure artistry.
Thank you PG.
Between your books and your videos I've improved my tying immeasurably.
You are a treasure Barry. Thank you.
You are very welcome Bob, good to know they help!
Just LOOK at that. Absolutely amazing. You are schooling the world of fly dressers.
I try...
Beautiful fly! Total work of art in highest form!!!!
Thanks John!
Barry , I could not tie that in a month of Sundays . Beautiful concept ,but beyond me .
Ha, its not that difficult Bill.
Barry, that is a truly amazing fly. Your skills and expertise just keep blowing me away. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Glad you enjoyed it Jim, thanks.
This is the best performance of a mayfly I've ever seen. Regards Sebastian 😊
I feel so inadequate. As a hobby I started tying materials to small jigs as a prelude to getting into flies. I can see I have a long road ahead. Thank you for sharing your talent and insight.
You can do it! Practice, practice and more practice If I may Mike could I recommend: www.amazon.com/Flytying-beginners-popular-international-patterns/dp/1913159280/ref=sr_1_2?crid=3USGO5THNPQ4C&keywords=Barry+ord+clarke&qid=1661063224&sprefix=barry+ord+clarke%2Caps%2C137&sr=8-2
Awesome tutorial Barry and an ingenious tool by your friend. Very realistic body, many thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it Joe.
That looks so real , I've got ta try this one for sure , thanks Berry for another beautiful fly.
Have fun with it!
Awesome and I just ordered the tools from them after watching this. Can’t wait for them to get here so I again can follow along and try this pattern.
Awesome! Thank you Jimmy!
Exquisite work Mr. Clarke.
I wouldn't know if I should fish with it or hang it on the wall.
Thanks, it's better to fish with them!
Hello Barry! Beautiful fly! Nice work.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely nice work 👍🏻
Also the explanation of using the glove 👏🏻 chapeaux
Glad you liked it Rudolf!
Excellent job Barry
Thanks Earl.
Barry- thank you for this one! I've been waiting for this since last fall. 😄 Great tip on prepping the gloves too. I was doing some Aussie Hoppers last week where this would have come in handy. And I know this was a tough video to make so do know we appreciate the effort!
Thanks Matt, much appreciated!
That is a terrific looking mayfly!
Cheers from central Montana 🍻
Thanks 👍
Beautiful!!!!!
And remember to like and comment to push the Utube algorithm.....🤠
Best wishes Barry!
Thanks for that!
Truly a beautiful pattern Mr.Clark !
A pattern I would love to see your version of is the Tan Meadow Hopper on a size 12 if you would be so kind. The Big Trout are going nuts over the Tan Meadow Hopper's and the Green/yellow Hopper's here right now....
I ordered the tool Barry! Excited to try this
Have fun!
@@Thefeatherbender does it need to be vinyl gloves? I have latex
Great tie!
Thanks!
I was wondering about durability, but sounds like that's not an issue. Killer fly Barry!
Not quite Bullet proof! but almost...
magnificent video....!
Thanks Paul!
Espectacular....!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏. Una de las moscas más artesanales que he visto. Es para un cuadro. Saludos desde Argentina.
Gracias Pablo.
Thank you sir! Very nice!
Most welcome!
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
I wish You were my father, sir !
Very nice of you Michal, but I think I have enough with my own children...
Wonderful!
Glad you think so!
Of course there is an extended body tool! Are you sure you are not related to the Serpent of Temptation in the Garden of Eden??? Always new tools,! I like the vinyl glove treatment! A great thing to know, thanks Barry!
Don't.... We all have a tackle tart hiding in us!
Hi Barry, an amazing pattern that I would like to tie myself, please explain where I can buy the detached body tool mentioned in this vlog.Thank you in anticipation. BTW I have treated myself to a copy of The Feather Benders Flytying techniques book which contains QR codes to all of the illustrated patterns great idea and a very good book. Graham A Hicks
Hi Graham, thanks pleased that you like the book I'm working on volume II now. If you go to the video the link is in the texts under the video.
Amazing fly tying, another time 👌
Just want to know where do you find the ditatched body tool used in the video ?
Thank you so much 🙂
Greetings from 🇧🇪
It's available only from 54 Deanstreet.com
Great helpful video get a professional fly ,thank you . Can I ask how you cut the gloves into strips and the small foam inserts ? Thank you for your help and all the great videos . B
Thanks, I just use long straight scissors or a hobby knife and metal ruler.
How do you come up with your ideas? Your innovation is astounding. Thanks for the great tutorial. Warmest regards
Thank you very much Mark, playing around with materials and watching other innovative tyers.
Amazing !!!
The best way to do extended body i’ve seen
Simple, very realistic and it looks solid!
I adopt your technique !
Just one question, does it twist the leader wire during the cast or not ?
Thanks David, Its not a pattern for lots of false casting but no problem on rivers.
Very realistic impression! Body looks like a lot of work if these are made in large quantities. Commercially, these would have to go for at least $5 to $6 dollars each to be worth the amount of time it takes to make one.
Thanks. Not too much work once you have it mastered and make 20+ bodies in one sitting.
Please don't reduce these fly's to a commercial opertunity, that would be blasphemy
Hey Barry absolutely love this pattern, I picked up the tool and started tying a few and they look incredible, can't wait to try them out this mayfly season in the Sierras! One question I have, any tips for forming the foam that you insert to the correct shape to fill it out? I've noticed mine ends up a little small sometimes to fit all the way inside the vinyl body and it doesn't look as nice as yours. Cheers and thanks for making these!
Hi Zac, good to hear! All I do as in the video is cut the foam into thin strips and then taper it a little with my scissors and just before I insert it into the body, I roll it in-between my finger and thumb, to squash it down. It will swell and fill the body quite quickly after you have inserted it.
Good luck...
Hey Zac. Where did you find the tool for extended body’s? I’ve looked and can’t find it. Thanks. Tight lines🦟🐜🪲!!!!!
Hi Barry, I bought both tools and I have been having great fun trying to recreate your patterns! Could I ask what type of markers do you use? Also for tying a spent mayfly what colour marker would you suggest? Thanks and keep up the videos that are class! 👍🏻
Hi Michael, thanks. I use the Faber Castell Pitt Artist Pen Brush. It depends on which mayfly you are trying to imitate.
Beautiful fly and great video. I have not used wax before. What is the wax used for?
Thank you. A little wax on your tying thread will hold materials securely in place with only a couple of wraps. It also strengthens your tying thread and makes the fly stronger and last longer.
Incredibly realistic, I love them🔥
One question: what kind of foam did you use? In what color and diameter?
Thank you very much for the answer.
Ciao Carlo, the foam is 2mm closed cell foam sheet from Veniard.
But the fly is utterly amazing. I'm on it.
Thanks John I'm in the club I September delivering my flies for the collection I'll have one of these with me.
@@Thefeatherbender Barry. If that's delivery suggestion, I accept. I'll message you. J
I'm curious, boil the rubber? Or just put it in the hot water off the heat source?
Hi Jason, in a bowl of pre boiled water for a couple of minutes.
Nice Tutorial, I knew the techniqe allready from Edwin but I must say not every type of Vinyl Glove works. I bought a pack, but it dose not stick together
Thanks, yes the vinyl gloves have to be 'POWDER FREE' .
magnifique....
Thank you Pat.
WOW WOW WOW
Thank you.
i am 11 and i live in Australia i also sell my flies if i can tie that then it will help me allot it looks awesome
Excellent well done and good luck! 😉
Looks amazing! It's a shame I can't seem to find the body tool. Its out of stock on the link.
Thank you. If it's out of stock @54deanstreet you will just have to wait until its in stock again.
@@Thefeatherbender indeed. I am going to try to use a barbless gamakatsu or use a straight needle and thread the middle hair with a longer strand. That way when it’s sealed I can pull that hair taught to get that curvature.
Where is the web page to order the extended body tool? I’d like to get one. Thanks!
In the text under the video!!
@@Thefeatherbenderdoes he still sell the tools? I can’t find the link!! Thanks. Tight lines🪲🐜🦟!!!!!!
Er dette ett spesielt verktøy som er beregnet på disse haler av latex
Ja linken ligger under under teksten.
Where can I buy the tool?
Hi Charles, the only place that you can get it is @54 Dean Street.
Gosh, Barry. €20 for the tool. But my resistance wilted and thought OK. Went through the signing-up business and pressed GO, only to find postage added almost the cost of the tool. That's just too fruity, so I'll try to make one. Shame. The maker needs agents.
Yes, they are difficult to make, the mandril has a very special finish to the surface so you can remove the finished body. Also the slots at the end of the tool I gather is also very difficult. And yes postage has become crazy the last couple of years, even sending flies its too expensive.

Hi Dale, Glasgow Angling centre.
Great tie!
What was the width of the strips you cut for the tool?
Thanks. It's not that important but about 3-4 mm.
