Thanks for all your great videos, always something interesting to learn from them! This nymph looks like it will be great for Grayling fishing here in the UK. Cheers 👍😁
Thank you Vladimir for sharing your skills, tips, and experience ...I always learn something new from each of your videos...your time and efforts are much appreciated
@@Oholisfliesandfishing I’ve been eatching lots of the big head nymphs n there amazing. I started out swinging skating n not use to it but I like it. All the teachings u do with usage of material n just sitting there thinking got me my best tied tonight. 😋
Thatls a great looking vacation. I htibnk the body is really effective looking. You have a wonderfully coloured and barred partrodge skin there as well! :-)
Always a pleasure to see a new video from you in the box. Congrats on another great teaching video. Really appreciate the thought that goes into creating something of unique value.
Your talk at the end about moving your fly.... I realized I always caught fish when I was digging around in my vest looking for something. For the longest time I said "damn fish know when I'm not paying attention." 😂 I finally realized it's because I was moving my flies. That realization doubled the number of fish I catch on nymphs. I dunno why I was under the impression for so long that I should try not to move them much.
Hahahah, i had same thoughts about fish knowing i am in the middle of something... 😂😂 Now i keep my flies always in the water, even while walking upstream. I almost always get a fish or two. 😂😂 People laugh at me... But flies in water are ones that catch fish 😀😀 Here is the proof... Me long ago eating a sandwich and casting 😂😂 ua-cam.com/video/07dOMZK76WI/v-deo.html
Thank you Vladimir for all the great videos and so glad I found your channel and subscribed. The time you take to explain the detail of the process of building a nice fly is so welcomed in my world. I enjoy making your flies that you share with all of us and have been successful. Thanks again for the videos and the detailed information as you tie. It makes a lot of sense when you explain the process of tying. Thanks again. Best wishes with your channel, I watch you regularly. Thanks
Thank you for your kind words. It makes a lot of difference for me whether there are people watching my videos or just skipping. I am in the long side... But i do agree with you that some small tweaks can make a huge difference between average and good fly. My goal is to try to improve myself as much as possible and to help people. Thanks for subscribing too. Tight lines Cheers Vladimir 😀😀🍻
A nice tie and presentation. I have caught 24 fish on your flies in my first 3 visits so I decided tomorrow to take some of Ghjanto's patterns with me and give them a try. I will also give your tie a try as I think the pink bead and partridge combination will work well. Thanks for the inspiration from down-under in NZ.
Thanks so much. There is one more way... You can wrap flash around wire so tight that you only see flash. Its more time consuming but looks cool and it protects flash way better. 🍻🍻
Thank you so much for your kind words. I was thinking to make some online classes but time difference is huge for most people. I live in china. So its difficult However i will keep trying 🍺😀
I hope that this does not come off as being critical as I have a couple questions with regards to this fly. Love the fly, however is it really a Hare’s Ear or a fusion of a Hare’s Ear and a soft hackle? The Hare’s Ear nymphs that I’ve tied in the past always had a wing case. Have you considered adding a wing case? My last question is with regards to your dubbing technique. How do you manage to get the dubbing so tight on your thread? My dubbing tends to start breaking away from my thread and starts to loop around it instead of staying on the thread. Thanks in advance.
Its perfectly fine, no worries. Actually I love your comment... Its more about techniques than materials... Good thinking 🍻🍻🍻 Yes, its fusion, variation... Some call it guides choice, some hare's Ear softhackle.... Its just what you said... A fusion... As for dubbing. It depends on what you use. Coarse dubbing tends to be difficult to dub on. What helps is: 1) to always dub in one direction, clockwise is the best. I explained why in some videos before (too long to write)... 2) fibers, hairs... Better to be at an angle to thread.... Close to perpendicular... Unless you do long fibers like antron... 3) keep your fingertips moist.... Dry fingers are super difficult for dubbing... 4) start with soft dubbing blends first. They are easy to dub and to learn the techniques.... Later move on to more coarser... For example, seals fur dubbing is super tough to dub with fingers....
@@Oholisfliesandfishing Ensuring that my fingertips are moist is something that I’ve never heard before and I will definitely do just that. My fingertips are always bone dry when I’m tying. Awesome tip! Thank you for the explanation about this fly. Very much appreciated.
Nadam se da ti je bar malo pomogao... Ako imas neku nedoumicu javljaj..... Uvek sam otvoren za ideje. Znace mi takvi komentaribjer nekad bas tako odlucim sta da snimam... 🍻🍻

I've never thought of using a pink bead. Is it just as an attractant or do you have other reasons? Great video by the way, I've learned so much from you. Thanks.
I am not 100% sure yet.... When i finish the box i will anounce it. To see my vids on time just hit that bell next to subscribe button. If it doesnt work... I always post vids on saturday. So check it out on Saturday. I guess i will just random pick a comment from a video.... There are apps for that. Tight lines Cheers
Nice vladimir great fly and explanation! I tied a couple of these after watching last night and they did great for me today when other flies weren't going well. It was the change that was needed. Is partridge your favourite legs or sometimes use CDC? I see in another video you use rabbit fur and no tinsel. Also good point I think it looks most like caddis pupa also.
Hey I'm super glad to hear that. I'm very happy that my patterns are working in New Zealand., Partridge and cdc are both my favorite legs. I would use partridge in faster while CDC in a little bit slower water. CDC would be my favourite if only had that color black and white as partridge has. I love CDC because it has so much inbuilt movement into itself. I truly believe that CDC adds a lot of life to our flies and it makes them more productive. Tinsel is something I use most of the time when I just need dull fly I would use it without tinsel. But tinsel would work most of the time. if I had to choose tinsel or no tinsel it would be yes tinsel. 🍺😀😀
@@Oholisfliesandfishing Thanks! I have my first competition on the 27th/28th and will certainly have some of these with both CDC and partridge in the flybox!
@@OnTheFlyNZ In that case, try this one too... With and without cdc legs. I was competing as well... Last time wffc 2017 ua-cam.com/video/SuXlGb7S46Q/v-deo.html
Hi Vladimir. I'm tying these now. There's a similar fly called "Crossover Nymph" by Devin Olsen ( Crossover Nymph Fly Tying Tutorial - ua-cam.com/video/udEZsDblpq4/v-deo.html ) He protects the ribbing either by counter-wrapping with monofilament or with the thread he used to tie the fly. I must say, I like your solution better. Time will tell how the wire will hold up, but I have faith in it. The ribbing material I use is Sulky #8040 - Opalescent. It's pretty thin and strong material.
We all tie some similar flies. If we go back... Its all based on birds nest more or less... All ribbing options are good. As long as you like it. Fish won't mind for sure. Durability is not concern.... Most of us snag those before they get destroyed 😉🍺🍺
@@Oholisfliesandfishing I tied some flies using Sulky ribbing in the past with Antron as the dubbing underneath. After some casts into fast water, I noticed that the ribbing slipped on the body of the fly. This happened when I was too lazy to reinforce the rib with monofilament or thread. I suspect that the Antron is more slippery than natural, spiky dubbing. Using wire intertwined with the sulky rib will likely prevent the slippage on Antron. Besides, I think the fly looks better. So your method will be incorporated into more of my flies for both practical and aesthetic reasons.
@@schmoonkie i never used sulky, looks like mylar? Like flash? Is that's the case... I suppose it slides down the antron because of what you said plus because it usually isnt ribbed tightly to dive into body a bit which would prevent it from sliding. So twisting it around the wire or counter wrapping the wire would help for sure Cheers Vladimir

A great looking fly, those metallic pink beads are one of my favorites for hares ear dubbing
Thanks. Same here.... Its in my top 3 beads.... Silver, copper and this one.... More or less all i use
