The Humpy has been around for a long time. It must be a productive pattern. Good Luck with yours!

Jim, what a valuable resource you are to the fly tying community. Together with Hans here in the Black Hills of South Dakota you have rekindled this old geezers efforts to get back in the saddle behind a vise. Thanks a lot.

I'm glad I can be an inspiration to your fly tying skills. I used to give my friends flies until I had more friends needing flies then I had money to keep buying materials. So know my friends are my best customers.

@@Ghosthawk332nd That is the object of the videos, not all need to be coopied per say, but some do. One of which is the GSS Emerger which I suggest you tie they are that good. Go to JackGartside.com and get some Olivee GSS if you don't already have it .

Thanks Jim! I've been tying different nymphs and wooly buggers, but just started tying some drys with elk and deer hair. Watching your technique with the humpy is really helpful for learning how to keep the hair under control.

Thanks Ron, I like to tie flies that you just look at but it is much better to tie the ones the fish will look at. The classics are classic because the trout look at & eat them. Jim

I've tried tying these like green drakes. Wrapping around each wing to form a cone at the base. A lot more of a headache then I needed. Definitely doing it your way from now on

Thanks for this video. I tied a few of these but always get in a kerfuffle with the hackle, mainly not leaving enough room at the head. I was surprised when you tied the hackle in through the wings as I've never seen that technique before - what is the reason doing this instead of the more commonly used technique of tying it in at right angles to the shank?

That's a alsome pattern!!.. I have not yet attempted any fur patterns. But, today I ordered some moose body hair and elk hair to tie some of these fur patterns. I'm gonna be fly fishing for Bluegill with this humpy. Will this same pattern work out Ok on a #8 or #10 hook ?? I might tie a few #12's, but I like to use a #8 or #10 for Bluegill, unless you change my mind.LOL Thanks for sharing this pattern with us.
@TheFlymanJim4 жыл бұрын
You can tie it sa large as you want. Personally I would use the #12. But if you make them bigger they will look like a moth which is great for bass. You'd be surprised at how many bass you can get on smaller flies.
@mikewalters49944 жыл бұрын
@@TheFlymanJim Thanks Jim, I like to use a little larger hook than a #12, because where I fish there are a lot of large Crappie too. Like you said, there's a lot of big Bass too. But, I have hooked more Crappie than Bass while bream fishing, there is always that chance a Big Lunker will hit it. I have learned from watching you Vedio's you like to use a #12 hook. Then watching your fishing Vedio's, it amazes me watching you catch those 5+ pound Brown Trout of a #12 hook. That's Alsome!!!... LOL !!.. Thanks Again Jim!!...

Hey Jim, I tied about six of these, and when I tied them I didn't have any hackle. They were in the first three months of tying. Is there any way I can sneak in a hackle now? They don't have very big heads. Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks Sean

The only thing you can do is try to put one in now. Maybe try to start at the head and wrap it back then tie it off.
