My FAVORITE streamer pattern of all time, and see the new version in my fly tying book: www.troutandfeather.com/new-products/fly-tying-for-everyone-book
Glad it helped, Joe, and ties in perfectly with the other video from Rich (ua-cam.com/video/0nOAhaCGZKg/v-deo.html). I hope all is well! Tim www.troutandfeather.com
Tim Great Video !!! Keep up the great work !! I have used Beadalon for connections it's a liitle stiff and I have used braided Dacron leader By far the best movement .People in Pacific Northwest Like Sanyo's articulated wire.. Beads I use 6 mm walleye beads The are cheap and you can by them by the hundreds
Thanks for the comments and recommendation for the Dacron. Can you get me a little more information on that? I'd love to try it out and compare the two. Also, GREAT suggestion on the beads for everyone; thanks again! Tim www.troutandfeather.com
Thanks for the kind words, Robert, and this is a great one to use. BTW, I fished it with a three weight this weekend...it can be done. ;-) Tim www.troutandfeather.com
Hi Joe, and thanks for checking! I love all of the brushes EP puts out, though MIDNIGHT is definitely a favorite! ;-) Thanks for checking. Tim www.troutandfeather.com
I use 20lb braid (Spider Wire) and only use a single thread to connect the two halves. I find it allows for more wiggle and remember that doubling up the connection almost doubles the breaking strength which i don't think is necessary.
Thanks for the comments, Sam, and I know of a few others that prefer SpiderWire for the connector. How do you attach it to the two hooks? Thanks again for taking a moment to share your ideas. Tim www.troutandfeather.com
I attach it by tying palomar knot to the trailing hook. The knot holds really well and you only have one line attaching the two hooks. I think it gives it a lot of wiggle. Something to keep in mind is that most braid has a waxy coating, so make sure it's tied to the leading hook well.
Definitely a pain...until you see the fish I've landed on this fly. Then there's no doubt as to why I continue to fish it. High risk, high reward. ;-) Tim www.troutandfeather.com

Hey Tim. Cool looking pattern! Is the EP chromatic brush in midnight color or blueberry? Asking for a friend 😜

Way too large, looks good on video, but that has to be a pain on the rod, that's two woolies connected by beads, not truly a single articulated fly.
