Hey Chris, when I wind up my hackles I keep my hand with the hackle in one position and rotate my vise! It makes flawless spaces and you're always able to see how it's sitting. Great video!
Great vids man, just subbed. Love those long hackles you are using. Do you know any where in Newfoundland or around St. John’s area where I could buy some small amounts of good dry fly hackle? Just can’t afford full or even half capes. Cheers
@@newfoundlandflyfisher awesome, I don't fish bombers much (because they always sink on me) but I did buy musclin the other day so might try again this weekend.
You're a brave man tying on yer dining room table! I'm trying to tie with GSP because of difficult hands, and I'm having trouble getting the hair to spin around the shank. Any thoughts? Great work with the double view camera! Thanks!!
Outstanding presentation on tying a bomber. Thanks for taking the time and effort to produce this tying demonstration. Bravo Zulu.
Thanks for the kind words Dennis. Thanks for watching :)
Great job Chris, 2 camera angles really helps and the instruction was excellent.
Thanks so much for the feedback Mark...I appreciate it.
Great technique and instruction. I’m quarantined and this is motivation to get to the vise.
Thank you very much. I hope this helps...stay safe :)
Really nice demonstration of hair packing & trimming applicable to any deer hair bodied fly.

Awesome Chris!
Thanks Gerard
Really like the video just getting into tying and this was a big help
I'm so happy it is helping you. That was my Hope :)
Excellent video. Definitely should have watched this before I tried to tie my first bomber tonight. Lol

I’m looking for that too...hard to find
Loving the videos, hoping you keep putting them out. Also do you use gink or anything on your bombers to keep them afloat?
Thanks Philip, thats the plan after this season. I usually use musclin on mine but gink works as well :)

Great work with the double view camera! Thanks!!
Its an older table🤣
Have you had any similar issues with other thread brands? I like to use a more grippy thread for spinning
What scissors are you using? Nice job btw.
Those are the Tiemco Curved. They are discontinued now but i believe you can still find the straight versions which are also great for trimming deer.
What hackle you use, saddle whithing size please

I believe this was a Metz #1 saddle. Thanks for watching
