I appreciate that you showed the thread breaking. For newer fly tyers, it can be frustrating when that happens. When it happens to an experienced tyer, it shows us that it can happen to anybody. There are a few KZfaqrs who show their mistakes, and how to fix them!

Just got a vise for Christmas. Trying to go slow and watch videos so I don’t learn bad techniques. I realize there is so much to learn. Appreciate you for your expertise and plan to learn more from you.

Been tying for 40 years and I learned some new stuff thanks looking forward to watching all your videos

Very in depth and technical information for neophytes as well as experienced tiers as a review of fundamentals. You gave a lot of thought to this instruction. Thanks for your time !

Started tying flies in 1976, you have shown me so many things i have had questions about for years. You just made picking a thread the way it should be SIMPLE!! Thank you again!

Thank you! I'm already so grateful for your sharing approach to your pattern videos, and this first episode is an awesome addition to the set. I literally cannot wait for the rest of the series! Cheers from the Netherlands :)

Great video, I've been tying for just over a year. These tips were great and will be well used. Looking forward to future videos. thx

Extremely educational! Thank you for taking the time to make your tutorials, a great help, thanks for sharing

Thanks for this education. Haven't tied since Jr. High in class and that was 47-48 years ago. I am getting started again, and really motivated to get started.

Thanks for the education Gunner. That was very helpful. You have excellent tying videos and i always learn something. I am also very grateful!!

always good to review the basics! I almost always find some nuance that is helpful.

Great first tie like a pro video, I learned a couple of things. Looking forward to seeing the next one!

Excited for this series EDIT: I'm STOKED for the rest of this series. Great ideas in the works

Always fun to watch gunnar! Sweet ideas, very infomative

I tying for 2 years. But this bring me back to the roots of flybuilding and anderstud this! Nice!

Great job. Looking forward to the other videos!

Hey Gunnar, I recon I'm a Bit late to the show. Just found your videos and am going through them one by one. I consider myself a novice tyer, though I've been tieing for myself for a couple years. Been tying jigs for crappie, and starting to stretch my wings a bit. Really enjoy your very informative videos. Being a pensioner

Thank you Gunnar! Quality vid as always!

Really great info regardless of experience level. Great basics. I always learn from your videos. One point I may have missed: the bobbin you are using for streamer tying is a long Rite bobbin which allows more torque and you can adjust the tension mechanically vs by hand pressure. Thanks for doing these man. I’m a fan of your designs.

Great basic info and awesome insight on some of the common mistakes and how to fix them.

Very very good Video, I am an Beginner and it is a great Help for me start tying. Specially the lock of the Loops is a Thing I did not realise . And I am looking forward to when you come to the Material. Greatings from Germany. Paul

Really useful info even for those not into streamers. Thanks for sharing

Great demonstration on the bucktail.

Thanks Brother. I am only considering getting into fly tying and your videos are so well made that it is pushing me towards tying. I checked out your blog and it's nice to know that your are a fisher of men as well. I look forward to viewing all of your videos. The Con Man was so cool. What a great looking fly. Thanks again. Rob

Awesome first video in the series! The 3 wraps for locking in material was super helpful. You do a great job of explaining the detailed mechanics of how/why things work.

Awesome info! Realy like your teaching style. Looking forward to checking out your other videos

Thanks very much. Interesting and informative.

Great info! Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing. I may tie with only three color threads, but to make hot spots I have other colors and also neon.

Thank you for the lesson ❤️😊😊

Learned cool new stuff thanks...

AWSOME AWSOME AWSOME. Keep it up Boss.

Wonderfully helpful Sir. May I ask a question that I shouldn't ask as it's none of my business...but what do you do for a living?. I'm sure whatever it is, you also excel at it. Looking forward to the next video.

Well done ThankYou

Thanks!

Thank you. Subcribed

First vid and directly push the abo button! Thx for your knowledge!

Great video! Just curious as to why the thread broke when tying the buck tail first time, too much pressure?

Your vids are awesome! Missed you at Bar Flies! Are you going to be at any events soon? I did not see you on the schedule for the Fly Fishing Expo in March. I live in lower Michigan, but have a place in Lake City, Michigan so any event is a option. Thanks,

thx!

Iam a beginner. In fly tying. What would u recommend. For first fue. To practice with. I live in central oregon. Thanks

great video also first

WOW

Another new vise?!

cool...😍😍👍

So, yes I'm a new tier. But I've been watching people tie flies my whole life (I'm 40 now) and I never understood the reason for having so many different colors of tying thread when it's all gonna be covered by material anyway. Floss, rib materials I understand, but I don't understand the importance of tying with all these colors if it's gonna get covered anyway. Right now I'm just using clear, nylon Walmart thread thats wicked strong and works great. I see no reason to tie with anything else. Advise?

Black makes a bad background color for your demos suggest you use a lighter color.
