  • Hi Davie,

    I was wondering, could I use deer hair to form a detached body? I've seen it in some patterns and liked how it looked. Great fly by the way!

  • Hi David (CommissarNorval),

    Yes, give it a go as deer hair is very good for detached bodies, glad you liked the fly...

    All the best Davie

  • This is an excellent fly. Where did you get the badger hackle from. Can't find it anywhere in Indiana help please. Thanks Dan

  • Hi Danmaljada85,

    The exact cape that you are looking for is a Metz Grade 2 Cock Saddle Silver Badger which I thought would be easy to find. I have looked for you on the internet but with no results I'm sorry to say, if I find one I'll let you know...

    All the best Davie

see all

  • Hi 1chuckell,

    I have sent you a link to the foam I used in the video, it also shows the size of the block. All I do is cut a slice from it with a sharp knife which is much better than using scissors..

    Have a Happy New Year and all the best for 2012...Davie

  • That looks great!

  • Spectacular

  • really good vidoe , cheers.
