  • Hello Dave Cammiss!

    Some of my first tying instructions came from your videos and they were very useful. Thanks, your lessons were very pleasant to follow. I have quite a while ago learned to manually whip-finish my tying efforts, but I doubt I could duplicate your finishing knots. I think those finishing hitches are quite beyond the ability of the average beginner to follow.

    Thanks again for your instructions.

  • Hi David, many thanks for these videos, very helpful.....and I've just realised that I need glasses!?!

  • nice fly and nice vidio :) Thank you :)

  • nice fly and nice vidio :)

  • what an ugly old man

  • @CarlNS1 What an ugly little kid

  • @CarlNS1 obviously ugly yourself... why post this you stupid, selfish, ugly little cretin go find some friends instead of spending ur life insulting others on you tube.

  • FANTASTIC!!! Inspiring many of us to try this for the first time!!!

  • Hi Dave, great fly i've tied a lot of these they fish really well keep up the good work. Alan

  • Wow! Fishing! That definitely should be put on the internet in order to fill up more of the internet!

  • What a great series of lessons. Thanks, Dave.

  • you have very good video im still learning to ty fly.

  • David you lost me after the florescent chenille...What did you use for the wing /thorax case? I didn't see ant thing shinny in the material list

  • fly tying is an art lol :)

    to me

  • i started tying flies when i was 12, little pink flies for humpies... and have been ever since. its a great hobby.

    not to mention the money you save by not buying the flies

  • Fly fishing is amazing hobby:D

  • wow i am 13 and i am really interested in fly fishing. i have only tied few buzzers but i have got to say it is so much more satisfying catching on your own flies! and my next aim is to fly the Montana Nymph!!

  • Hi Dave! Love watching these videos. Here in the States we call head varnish "head cement". Catching fish with flies i tied myself is a bit more satisfying. Here in Connecticut just downstream from a reservour in a semi deep gorge i catch Walleye with weighted Woolley Buggers.Black is most productive but i have caught many fish with other colors. I used my cats hair for dubbing and some say cat being a predator is a problem. Have any thoughts on this?

  • Excellent series, Mr. Cammis! I had considered tying my own flies for quite some time but the explanations I've read in books were kind of confusing. These videos are very clear.  Thanks!

  • Hi monstercatambush

    Thanks for your comments. Hope you do get the gear and have a go at tying your own flies. Once you start you will find it addictive.

    Happy fishing

  • Mr. Cammis:

    I am indeed flattered to get a personal response. I did "tackle" tying this particular pattern after watching your video a few times and getting my gear together and organized. This past Sunday I was able to catch two very nice blue gills from some flooded weeds, as well as the back of my right ear. (I was a bit excited about catching a fish on my own fly and fumbled my cast!) I always mash the barbs, though, so both fish and I were easily released.

    Thanks again.

  • It's so refreshing to find well thought out, informative videos on You Tube. A welcome change to the 99.5 percent garbage out there. Thanks!

    Happy Fishing

  • Hi gergorymoore

    Thanks for your comments. We do our best to take the 'magic' out of tying fishing flies.

    Happy Fishing

  • @gergorymoore Excellent videos!! Your lessons have been the most informative of any I have found on the net. Thank you for sharing your expertise. Please tell me what brand of vise you are using in your video. Thank you, John S.

  • when i tie this i normaly put some flash in the tailand i dont weight it and i use green hackle wound round the thorax sounds weird but it works very well for rainbows n big browns

  • Question:

    Can nail varnish be used for the head varnish?

    Cheers

    Paul.

  • nail varnish/polish is acetone. can disolve some materials on contact. Spend the extra pound.

  • Hey Jr

    Can you recomend a varnish, such as a brand or that?

    Cheers

  • Here in the States we call it "head cement". A name brand, Flexament. Get the smaller size as it almost always dries out in the bottle before i use it all.

  • i am 15 and becoming a fly fisherman. I used the diawl back that he has a video on and it cuaght fish like crazy!

  • i tie flies to, but im not as good as this guy. what brand of fly rods do you guys use??

  • lol im 13 but arent as good as this guy..havent gone fishing in a while cause mountain biking and motocross but i wanna go now

  • Your Instructions are the best I have seen. I am glad that I live on a farm, I get feathers for free. I have been thinking about selling some. By the way its nice to see teenagers like GaFlyGuys into Flyfishing.
