Hello. Thank you for a great video. I found a reference to this fly in a book called "the history of fly fishing in fifty flies." Thanks to you I should be able to tie it now. What are popular sizes to fish?
A wonderfully productive tie the tom thumb. What would you tie for a gomphus. Fish so full of them. Almost spitting them out. Have seen deer hair ties but doesnt make sense to me. Fighting to sink that tie or have to use lead. What are you thoughts on gomphus patterns?
I've tied Tom Thumbs for age. I have to say this is a really nice tie. Thanks so much.
What a great fly. Nice tie Brent.
your vise makes applying dubbing easy. learn from all your video's
Awesome classic, Brent. Definitely worthwhile having in the fly box. Thanks for a great tutorial

What are popular sizes to fish?
All depends on the hatches and fish your targeting but our favorite sizes for BC rivers and lakes are size 8 - 12.

How about tying the " horsehair"? A Sheridan lake classic
Now take that fly to Snake River in Idaho
