Another first class instructional video. You have been an inspiration to many, many people in the fly fishing community for many years now. I have enjoyed every one of your contributions and look foreward to many many more. Keep up your excellent work and thank you for all your inspiration.
I learn so much from your demonstrations, instructions and tips. Thanks!
Thank you so much for sharing your tying of patterns. I watch all related to trout. Love your video's. Awesome patterns.
Glad you like them Jeff R...All the very best Davie..
Great looking caddis mate. The trout would eat that in a heartbeat. Thanks for sharing with us all. Best Regards, Ken
Excellent tie Davie. Another one of my favorites
Please keep up your fantastic work in these trying times
Brilliant as always Mr. McPhail
Superb little fly. Well done Davie
Good stuff
Nicely done as usual Davie!
I might even have some of that green foam hiding in my drawer somewhere.
Stay safe and healthy.

Like the use of the foam in the back end Davie, nicely done.
Sin duda, esta estará en mi caja.
Gracias Davie!!
Nice tying, you are a pro my friend
Tied many of this pattern style over the years but not with the CDC body. Will try, seems like good idea!
I need to try this one. Thanks Davie. Have to get some of the green foam.
The CDC Bubble has become my favorite caddis. The Hair makes it far more durable. Great tie. Hope I can get off work for the Grannoms.
amazing
Davie, You out did Yourself on this one!
Love the pattern but at the moment I don’t have any foam. I’ll have to see about getting some (in small quantities). Thank you for another great tie dude.
Как всегда оригинально!
tankiou Davie nice fly
Amigo mestre Davie esta mosca está excelente, vou amarrar uma para postar no youtuber com cores diferentes. Valeu. Grande abraço. 👍
Супер!!!
hello Davie. thank you for sharing, a montage that I will hasten to do. because bubble segde works wonderfully in France. we are friends on facebook (under the name of Frederic Othon)
👍🏻
Great fly might tie a few heading down the river hopefully something will bite
Hi Davie, thanks for the video(s). when making the CDC dubbing, is it a case of just stripping the fibres from the quill and mixing it up? or do you need to chop up the fibres in to smaller bits?
Thanks again, I've learnt so much from your videos.
Hi Daniel,
I cut the fibres off as close to the stem as I can go rather than stripping them off, you'll not need to chop them up as it mixes and dubs on easily..I'm glad you are enjoying the videos and thanks for the kind words...
All the very best Davie..
good work. And can you add Russian subtitles to your videos? It would be very good. Thank you for your videos. Great work.
True artist Davie so professional and neat looking ,didn't see you at the BFFI if you were there , does it have to be insect green foam or can you use any other colour
Hi Stuart,
Just leave it out or you could use green floss or wool for a small tail which would give the impression of the egg sack..Thank you for the kind words and be safe...
All the very best Davie..
Davie - how long do the horns last? One fish? But sure does look realistic!
Hi wymingtrout,
They do last quite long but like any fine fibre they can break off anytime, though as you said they do look realistic/good..
All the very best Davie
Excellent davie , question though ,CDC dubbing ?, could you just throw a bunch of small inferior CDC feathers into a coffee grinder which would include the stalks of course or do you have to trim each and every feather of its barbs to make the dubbing
Hi Stuart,
You would have to cut away the fibres from the stems of the feathers before you put them in the blender as you will get a finer and easier dubbing..I'm glad you liked the fly and I hope you are well..
All the very best Davie..
@@DavieMcPhail Thank you Davie
Davie: couple of questions - why trim the cdc on the body, is it not desirable for the fibers the stick out and catch air bubbles like the natural. Also, have you ever tried a weighted version to fish as an ascending pupa?
Hi wymingtrout,
You can leave them if you wish as it will still work, I just like to trim it to get a better shape in the fly...I have tyed some weighted versions over the years with some success though friends of mine that have fished abroad with them have had better results..
All the very best Davie
Thanks Dave ,did you go to the BFFI?
Hi Stuart, No I wasn't, I don't get much chance to do shows nowadays...All the very best Davie..
Hey, Davie! Which fish can catch normally on this fly?
Hi Влад G,
I use it on the river for brown trout and grayling...ATB Davie..
@@DavieMcPhail Thank You so match, Davie.
Круто, а чем можно заменить СДС?
Hi mosaic Mo,
If I never had CDC feathers then I would just use the Elk hair or a similar Deer hair would work fine...
All the very best Davie..
can you tell Davie if we can use gray foam?
Hi doktor19796,
Use whatever you like as I do this myself with many patterns, let me know how you get on with the fly you tye...
All the very best Davie...
Absolutely love it Davie, thank you, BTW, I love this old guy's videos too. I had never encountered his method of tying this. had you? I know that it's a Goddart variant, but it is new to me. ua-cam.com/video/GwEBFmhXq5c/v-deo.html
Hi Ian,
I've not seen this way of tying the G&H caddis before, it certainly is an interesting way of forming the wing and I am sure it will fish well...I'm glad you liked the fly...
All the very best Davie..
