I love this bug, amazing feather work. And I remember that quote so well, well maybe I remember lol! Have an amazing day and hope to see y’all in Atlanta 👍
wow that is a brilliant way to make fantastic spinner wings. That Dutch tier must have been a genius or just by chance stumbled into that technique. That looks every bit as good as a wing burner or a synthetic material that is pre-made.
SmokeumPeacepipe Yeah, I was expecting to hear the "canoe shape" reference again but was caught off-guard. A split second later i just started laughing.
Really love your videos. I'm not familiar with the fiber used for the body. Can you give me a little more information? Would a goose biot be a possible substitute?
Great technique, but most people fail to match the silhouette of these flies, and do so terribly. I suggest everyone read Kelly Galloup's book Cripples and Spinners.
First time I’ve seen wings done this way!!! Another tool for the bench! Gotta tie a couple right now
Nice bug! Tight lines🕷️🐛🐜!!!!
Very nicely done. Tidy!

The wing was invented by Canadian fly tier Wally Lutz. Hence, the "Wally" wing.
That is the best way to make wings!(no pun intended)

Nice video and when paired with Smhaen flytying by Davidson will give anyone interested in the pattern a couple of alternative wally wings. Thanks

The body is made of peccary (javelina/wild boar).
I use hard as nails top coat, yes is way more expensive but flies last longer with these hungry bass ,crappie and bluegill they destroy flies
3:41 Exactly! he he he
I suppose moose mane could work too? I use that on quill gordons.
I’m in the Hudson valley
Bravo Zulu

XOXO
Don't Bogart it, my friend.
Nice technique, but seems like the wings proportionally are too far forward. But if works, who cares.
