Flies

For this week's Tying Tuesday, we have two new fly patterns, and a video about different fly tying lights. Picking up a good light can make a huge difference in how long, and effectively, you're able to tie flies. The one I have is some of the best money I've ever spent. After that, you'll get treated to a nice midge pattern and a fun streamer! We start...

This week's Tying Tuesday features an interesting array of patterns, and in particular, one of the more unique flies I've seen in a long time. The Super Mottle nymph from Tim Flagler looks like something I'll tie a lot of this winter. Up first this week is the latest installment of the Fly Tying Skill Builder series from Fly Fish Food. In this video, you'll...

When you head out to the river, how often are you 100% confident in knowing what flies you should tie on? Sure, if there's a hatch going on, picking the right fly can be relatively straightforward. But if the fish aren't active, what's the process to use to pick a great fly? Well, there are ways to figure out the perfect fly, but it's always good to have a...

We've got an interesting group of flies for this week's Tying Tuesday. Of particular note is the most interesting Pheasant Tail variation I think I've ever seen. There's also "the simplest parachute mayfly pattern" and a fun bugger, as well. Have fun tying, and stay warm when testing out these flies! Up first is a fly from Tom Jarman Fishing, who I don't...

This week's Tying Tuesday is streamer-heavy, but that's to be expected given the time of year. You'll learn how to put together a Fish Skull River Creature, and Cheech's secret Complex Twist bugger. You'll also get treated to a great Catskill dry fly. This first fly is from the folks at AvidMax, and it's tied from one of their kits. This one is the Fish...

This week's Tying Tuesday is a diverse collection of bugs you'll probably use in the next month before things get too cold and the fishing shuts down. We start out with a CDC emerger pattern for lakes, move on to a midge emerger, and finish up with a nice little leech. Al these flies look fairly simple to tie, and look like they should put a few fish in the...

This week's Tying Tuesday is streamer heavy. I guess it's that time of year! We start out with an interesting flashy minnow pattern, then move on to the most unique leech I've ever seen. We'll finish up with an ol' classic, tied up in purple. The first fly this week is a Palmer Chenille Minnow, from the folks at All Points Fly Shop + Outfitter on YouTube...

Winter keeps trying to make an appearance, so while we wait, why not tie some flies? This week's Tying Tuesday is an interesting mix of streamers, dries, and nymphs, so there's something here for everyone, even if you don't primarily chase trout. Does the Woolly Bugger need any improvements or changes? The folks at All Points Fly Shop say they're not trying...

This week's Tying Tuesday is heavy on the subsurface flies, with a midge and streamer tutorial leading the way. You'll get treated to a simple CDC emerger, as well. It's time to start filling boxes for next spring, and these are all great flies to start with. Davie McPhail leads us off this week with a 3-in-1 video! You'll get an up-close look at three...

Tying Tuesday is here, and we're treated to some fantastic little patterns this week. We start out with a stonefly, get treated to a fun egg pattern, and end with a nice pheasant tail variation. Watching these videos this week really has me inspired to sit back down at the vise after far too long away. I know we started off with a stonefly pattern from Fly...
