Going to tie this I like tying deer hair . Simple and looks productive Thanks

This is a good one, one improvement I would do is to pu an extra clump of hair on the top. It will float better longer.

Thanks Jim. I tied some up and found it much easier to just add the rubber legs last.

Hey Jim when I tie I like to keep a piece of wire handy so I can wrap those legs down if they become a nuisance... Just a little tip that may be helpful especially when working with deer hair. Fun fly I know that the pond blue gills at the golf course will smash that thing!

Hey Jim, nice fly. I don't go fishing much, I have explained why so if I get to go, it won't be for blue gill. In Maine they are tiny. But I do have a couple of youngsters that love to catch whatever will bite so I am going to tie some for them. All the best to you. Sean

As far as tying goes, is there a difference between deer body hair and deer belly hair? I can find body hair at Cabella's, but I heard belly hair was supposed to be the type to use if you want your fly to float. Thanks!
@TheFlymanJim8 жыл бұрын
All deer hair will float or fly. Deer belly hair is very coarse the thickest hair on the deer, very hollow. This is best for tying Bass flies such as bass hair bugs. The hair you want for flies such as caddis or compara duns the best hair for this is the softer shorter hair that comes from around the legs or face. If the short stuff is what you want then get Coastal deer hair.

What can we use as a subsitute to the rubber legs? anything in the feathers or how about tippets?
@TheFlymanJim2 жыл бұрын
A small thin rubber band or a spinnerbait skirt. The spinnerbait skirt is made of the same material.

@@TheFlymanJim thank you for your quick reply. They simply did not have any left at the local store. I will eventually get the proper legs. Have a pleasant day. The rubber band will be perfect for the time being.

Hey sir I'm just wondering could I tie this with grey squirrel tail fur
@TheFlymanJim2 жыл бұрын
You can but it won't float well. Deer hair makes it float
@1948spanky10 жыл бұрын
Hi Jim,Can i use buck tail stacked or are you using deer body hair. Thanks
@TheFlymanJim10 жыл бұрын
Hi Paul, You need to use deer body hair as it is hollow. Deer tail is not and won't float. If you want a sinking pattern then tail is what you want. Maybe even something softer like squirrel, fox, or synthetics like craft fur. Thanks for your questions. Jim
