  • Uni? UTC? Know what solar system you live in?

  • If it isn't tyed with Wood Duck, it's just an emerger.

  • Jasper, Nice K.i.s.s tie.(kiss=keep it simple stupid) I would however say you could call this a different name as you dont use wood duck thus No wd ya get it? lol.

  • Call it whatever you want mate. LOOKS like a chironamid and the fish will take it as such, that makes it a very simple buzzer pattern. I've tied thousands over the years. Nice video though.

  • fish these deep, or in the film?

  • its a buzzer

  • @mick7662492

    It's not a buzzer it's a mayfly! Definitely effective for imitating Baetis-complex hatches on tailwaters in the Western USA. I'm speaking from experience :D Great fly. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the modifications to original the recipe, but I'm willing to give them a shot.

  • crazy good tie...

  • I love this fly! I have caught hundreds of trout on this fly especially during the fall and winter months and early spring. It does particularly well when fished as a dropper off of a glo-bug. I think it does a good job imitating a midge larvae. Don't let the tiny size of this fly fool you. I tie my wd40's with brown barred hen saddle fibers for the tail. I also tie them in sizes 20-24. I am going to try out the brown Darlon like in this video.

  • this fly really isnt that much its not a piece of art its a fish catcher

  • all that work for just 1 hook., damn what if it get caught up in rocks or something

  • hahaha, that's nuthin. some flies take tons and tons of steps. for a fly like this, you'd just tie a bunch of 'em, especially since this is a relitively easy tie.

  • @KhmaiBodian559

    You must not be a fly fisher. lmao!

  • hmmmmmm.? looks very bare to fish a scottish water if you ask me.?

  • Its just a very sparse tie to imitate very small nymphs. I usually use these in sizes 20-22.

  • when u say WD40, i thought u said WD-40 as in the spray XD

  • Interesting.

  • I like this fly i will try it on my local water

  • I blew my hand off when I was making that!!

  • Good vid mate would like to see more,nicely explained easy to understand

  • Good descriptions while you're tying. I look forward to next month.
