Great series, thank you. I call on you again to address oversized beads, strategies for securing them to the hook with minimal bulk, both slotted and countersunk. It's a real challenge. I don't always want to go with bigger hooks for bigger beads. First was ask. Then came call upon. Next is beg, implore, and beseech.

Thanks Cheech for another clear n understandable skill builder. And I was a husky child. I remember it so well as it was a normal saying that I grew up with. God Bless n Fish on! Looking forward to the next video!

And for more "organization".... I created an Excel spread sheet by Hook BRAND, Model, Size, Amount, and then specific criteria. Now when Cheech says "Nymph X hook, size 14, model xyz...." I look and find I don't have that, BUT, I can look through my spread sheet for varied nymph hooks from other makers and find one that meets the criteria of Cheech's hook. SAVES a lot of time and money!

Love the Skill Builder series and I've saved allof them. Hey, cut Rosenbauer some slack! And,why not have Brigham do a skill builder? He's probably a good tyer. And, I liked the TIP on splitting the deer hair. Thanks, Cheech.

Tom and Brig are welcome any time. They will give you a good tip each. No hacks though.

Nice instruction and video Cheech. I was a little surprised wing was not divided in thirds with thread wraps to add stability (above and beyond tight wraps with dubbing). Fun series.

As you will see in these videos, everybody kind of has their own way of achieving the end result. I have had great results with these two techniques so that’s what I stick with.

I learned to divide the hair in thirds from Dave Hughes “Essential Trout Flies” 2000. He writes “This is critical to hold the wing upright later when the fly is fished”, but I wasn’t sure how this worked, and didn’t have any flies not tied this way to compare. Store bought BWOs seemed to hold up better than mine, but I wasn’t sure how they were tied.
@gregb88244 ай бұрын
I'm surprised you didn't run your thread through the deer hair in three equal segments like Craig Mathews demonstrates. That method locks the hair in an upright position and keeps it from rolling on the hook. A skill worth demonstrating with the comparadun.

@dominiqueleblanc21934 ай бұрын
Pro Davie McPhail trick here. When tying the wing, instead of cutting, you just put a little more tension on the thread and pull as you are doing tight turns with the thread and you will have a really clean body. What is that little stacker?

Can anyone explain the black tips are bad as they don't float comment from Cheech? Is it from the wrong time of the year in the animal's life? Animal is too young? Female vs. male? I always thought the black tips made the fly LOOK beautiful at least to the fisherman. Didn't realize there was a floating issue.
@FlyFishFood3 ай бұрын
Yeah. Black tips aren’t hollow like the rest of the fur. Not a big deal on large flies. A HUGE deal with small flies.
