What an awesome pattern! Please make a second channel with regular explanations in a normal speaking voice describing step by step what material you are using and why. I get that this is an ASMR channel and the people come here for that and I am glad that they enjoy it. I like what you are tying but this presentation style is not for me... If you were to just do a second channel with the same video and regular audio I believe it would do well and all it would require is a a voice over and regular audio. Thanks.

Young lady, I have to tell you how impressed I am. You have a loyal subscriber here and I will keep tuning in. I have been tying for years and I have found new techniques on how to do things from your videos. You definitely don't let any tying material intimidate you from what I see. I struggled with deer hair at first, and your deer hair bass bug is a work of art. Where did you find some of your cutting tools? There's one I have seen you use I have never seen before and I can't describe it. Please keep these videos coming and I wish you the best at this tying adventure.
