A follow-up comment, Davie. I was so impressed by your tying, I copied it faithfully, and made quite a lot to use and give to friends. The one slight problem with the latex rubber band, is that it tends to deteriorate in the fly box. Easy enough to replace, of course. The fly certainly catches.

Потрясающая работа! Следующий раз когда сяду вязать, неприменно начну с нее! Всех благ вам, Дэви!👍🤝🇰🇿

Everything about your videos are wonderful. When I see a new one posted, my day just got better :-)). Thank you.......

I have learned some great techniques from watching your videos. You pattern are elegant, and most importantly fairly simple to tie (usually!). Thanks much for the great vids!

Davie, you do miniature art that has a function and we can see the entire process creation and learn from you. Totally amazing.

Amazing once again.............. Thank you for all your videos and the time you put in to share them with everyone. ;-) My five year old nephew told me the other day, his two favorite things to do are baseball and tying flies..... He is doing so good, he's tied sixteen already. He asked me if I could get him the kid kit, so he could practice and get really good. I'm so proud of the little guy. Now I know what I have to get him for his birthday..... Best wishes, lindsay

Another brilliant fly from the vise Davie. Much appreciate your work. Thanks for sharing. All the best to you, Sean

Another beautifully crafted fly, Davie. Thanks again for sharing your skills.

The caddis pupa,one the best 👌 fly,you can find 🙌

Mr McPail Love to watch your videos very talented. Thank you for sharing your knowledge ,you do a great job of explaining things. Thank You Matt

Since I have subscribed, I feel a real urge to try my own. Great tutorials davie, keep up the good work.

Just found this one Davie. It’s a super Caddis pattern. I’ll try my hand with it and thank you for another great tie.

Great pattern. Best fly dresser I’ve watched

Davie Thanks for sharing your wonderful work with us.

That latex body looks amazing.

Davie, seus videos são muito bom, aprendemos cada vez mais, Abraços do Fábio do Brasil.

Дэви, классная работа. Благодарю! Мушка - супер!👍🤝🇰🇿

Hi Davie. I like your technique. Many big fishes on your flies and many emotions. Miro

Lovely tie - Well done!

thank you so much for your fast answer. i am startet flytying because i see youre videos here i try to get the materials from some flys that you tyi thank you davie ( sry about my english :-) )

Looks the business Davie, i'm gonna tie a few up for next month.

Davie. That's a great looking fly. It may work even better with eyes made from that green/yellow monofilament line you use for eyes. Just a thought.

Really nice! Thanks for sharing

This is a great pattern!

Como siempre senor Mcphail,,,,bonita mosca,,,,saludos y mucha suerte desde el fin del mundo,,,chile good look

tres belle realisation! merci.

mercpour ces magnifiques vidéos que vous tournez pour nous

This is one of the great patterns from you, Davie. I do hope KZfaq are sending you lots of revenue from your wonderful vids. I am being INUNDATED with ads. I know you don't control those interruptions.

Excellent example Davie you are a true master of the craft.I couldn't get the latex so I purchased a box of latex gloves from my local Tescos and cut strips from those . Can you explain how you bleached the pheasant tails please and would bleaching goose tail feathers work .Thanks Davie excellent work .

Beautiful

Davie Very Nice my Friend

Yep!......

Davie, I would like to thank you for taking the time to upload these videos, they have taken me from a complete fishing/fly tying beginner to someone that can now tie my own flies (badly I'm sure but at least they are mine) Like others I has inspired my 8 year old now who not only fishes with me, but also sits for HOURS tying your patterns and of course his own "wacky" designs ;-) There is no better feeling than catching a fish on a fly you have tied yourself and we both have had fantastic success on all of your patterns, sometimes we were the only people catching and have now started giving out the names/links to your patterns for my fellow club fishermen so expect a glut of subscribers soon. So thank you again and please keep posting. One final thing if I may, the bleached pheasant tail I can't seem to find. Did you bleach them yourself ? If so could you tell me how please as this is the next fly my son and I want to tie. Many thanks Leon

Thanks formthis and all your amazing videos. I'm trying these with what are available materials. How important are colours ? and also time of year to use particular styles please.

Davie - thanks for the tutorial...great fly...I am thinking of adding a light coat of UV material over the latex to add a shine and maybe some durability to the body...your thoughts would be appreciated. Keep up the great work!

Just tried tying this fly Davie looks pretty snazzy.

Excellent!!! This was 9 years ago, what are you doing now? Still tying I hope! Tight lines🐜🦗🪰!!!!!

awesome

Hey davie I was wondering what makers you use. I am a beginning tier and I love your flys. Also I was wondering if you could make videos on the Adams and the royal wulf I have heard that they work great and love your videos. Thanks josh

Hi Davie, Love this pattern!! I think this will work well here in Australia!! I'm liking the latex look for the body on these flies but was wondering if there is a good way to build it up for a fatter body like a cicada has. Would it be worth wrapping underneath it with something to bulk it out? I have An idea for a cicada with a body made using latex, with a flash and fine fibre wing mounted on the side rather than the top and a deer hair thorax to float it. Would love to see what you could come up with based on this idea? Cheers again for the inspiration. Colin

Видео очень отличного качества. Объяснения все очень доходчиво и понятно. Просто прелесть, наслаждаюсь этим видео.5555555

Super 👍

that is very good

nice fly

Hello Davie! Just wondered if you have a book out there somewhere?? Love your videos ,keep them coming ! Thanks. Robert Van Alstine.

Я бы с удовольствием занялся этим делом, не ради наживы или бизнеса, а просто для себя, очень интересно, но нужен инструмент, а без него сделать очень проблематично. Жаль что не имею такой возможности. Я бы дарил таких мушек своим друзьям кто увлекается такой рыбалкой. Это же просто класс.55555555

hello davie i have seen a linc on a video of you bleaching peacock (stripping for quills) - is there a method (mixture) bleach to water you use to get this result on the pheasant tail ? thank you in advance

🇨🇿CZ. 👀👍🏻 super 👍🏻👋🏻

Great looking caddis there Davie. Can you use any kind of latex or use the stuff they already have cut into 1/8 inch wide. You working on that Carrie Stevens streamer? Best Regards, Ken

great as always! would it last longer if you used UV resin on the latex? Also what is that wax you use? Is it a product you can buy? thanks

Good day Davie, I was wondering if you ever bleach feathers. I use household bleach to remove fibers from ostrich and peacock to get quills,so I know that's too strong, but thought maybe peroxide or hair bleach may work. I have seen the videos of you dying feathers and didn't know if you bleached as well. Thanks

❤ 👍👏👏👏🐟🎣

Hi Davie, sorry to bother you! How wide was the latex you sliced? Love your work, the quality and the easily to follow tutorials are second to none!

Nice insect Mr. McPhail. What is the maxim fish weight with that hook size? Thanks.

Thank you for the piece of information (pheasant tai) other question : where to buy the latex (no traitor in France)

Hi Davie, again a beautiful tie. You're videos are always inspirational. Just wondered if you bleach your own feathers or do you buy them that way. If you do bleach them, does the same method work as foe peacock herl or are there special bleaches needed. I tie just for the pleasure and on a small scale and am off work at the mo undergoing chemo so I find myself at the vise al lot and dying and bleaching my own feathers and furs adds to the pleasure and gives me something to tsake my mind off things. Any advice gratefully accepted. I appreciate that you are a busy man and am always very grateful for your time and expertise. It is also lovely to hear how much you enjoy fishing your flies, also to me one of the great escapes. Was also wondering if there was a reason that you took down your nymph playlist? Thank you so much for the inspiration, pleasure and grat knowledge, Yours Karl.

I did enjoy it, Davie, thank you. Was wondering if you purchase the bleached pheasant tail or bleach your own. If you bleach your own, would you say how you do it, please? Mike

очень крутая нимфа, даже без глаз

hi , please can you tell me the color number of the second pen the brown one thank you

Класс! 👍🤝🇰🇿

Класс!!!
