How to tie a Needlefish Imitation - Stick Fly
This short fly tying video shows how to tie a simple Needlefish imitation with foam. Giant tarpon have trouble resisting a well presented Stick Fly. Foam saltwater flies like the Stick Fly can be made more durable by inserting a cut of heavy mono into the core of "Evasote" Fly Tying Foam. This will help keep an excited cast from whipping the foam off the hook. Use a steady two handed strip, or "doodle" over the fish's head and do the best you can to hang on. This saltwater fly can be tied in many colors and with or without a weed guard.

zhlédnutí 3,1KPřed 9 lety
How to tie a Tarpon Toad with a piece of foam at the head. This style of suspending tarpon fly can be tied with many colors and is great for catching big tarpon in the Florida Keys.

This short fly fishing video demonstrates how to rig your leader with two nymphs below weight and an indicator. Blood Knot for leader to tippet connection. Clinch Knots to the flies. This Nymph Rig can be adjusted to meet different fishing situations. The farther your weight is from the fly, the faster your weight will sink. However, you give up sensitivity in shallow water. I always add a drop...
How To Rig A Leader With Two Dry Flies
zhlédnutí 55KPřed 10 lety
This short fishing video shows how to rig your leader with two dry flies on the same line. Using a Blood Knot Dropper for this set up is the best way I have found to keep your dry flies floating and acting naturally. Consider placing the largest dry fly at the end of the line and the smaller off the dropper knot. Fishing from the boat with double dries is my favorite way to catch trout. If you ...

Thanks. Now I know how to quickly attach a fly to a loop.
that's how
New to tarpon…do you use hard mono or fluorocarbon on these leaders? Thanks…and personally I like the no talking in your videos with the “fish crack” sounds in the back. Subbed!!
Clean, but doesn’t seem very adjustable.
has anyone tried it for native brook trout here in the US?
EXCEPTIONALLY delivered tyvmCaptMT!
Thank you!
Wouldn't an Albright be a stronger connection?
This knot has yet to fail me.
the title so inducing of conflict amongst the A-types that there should be 1.5M views by now. Almost disappointed the video didn't live up to its intended reaction ;)
Uhhh, certainly no “how.” Still searching for anyone on CZcams that can teach a knot.
This is awesome
thanks, it's been a while since I tied mono to backing😊😊
Ive never enjoyed watching a tie as much as this one listening to u land that red.
Awesome 👏🏼 😎
Didn't have that tool but used a small PC. Of metal with a slot on the top, worked great!
This knot is best tied with ingenuity!
Love the audio!
Can this be used for an all around saltwater leader, say for snook etc?
Of course! However, you may not need as heavy a bite tippet to the fly. Good luck out there!
Thanks for knot demonstration. Just wondering when creating a backing loop with braid backing how many twists for the double Bimini? and do my number of twists differ if using dacron? thanks
Hello William, thanks for asking. I suggest 10 wraps for both dacron and braid with a Doubled Bimini Twist. Fish on!
Best produced fly tying video I have ever watched. No boring dialog or monotonous music. Good job and nice looking fly.
Thanks for the good word Frank!
Cool crab
But why 60 30 50 why is the 30 in the middle
Can't believe you use the fly line loop..........
Belíssimo Tarpon ! No Brasil "Camurupim " ! Vídeo Top Capt Matt Thomas !
Excelente trabalno! Ficou Top !!!I would like to know plêiade what a measure and Brand hook you used in this vídeo ? Thanks you !
Nice! What size hook do you usually use for this?
Can yo tell me who makes that fly you’re tying on at the end, it would probably be good for striper too
I prefer an igfa leader. It's a little more effort, but I find that it casts better than a home boy, and you just never know when that fish of a lifetime will take your fly. I don't chase records, but if I catch one I'd like it to count.
Jajajajaja
Excelente vídeo. Muy Agradecido.
Shout out on that perfect release. Didn't even touch the fish. Impressive.
Why is he holding it like that?!?
Now do it again with 6x 7x just as fast!
What kinda yarn you take for that which material?

Thank you!
Thanks a lot!
Why not just tie it on like a dry dropper? Tippet to hook
Thank you!
Great! Thank you!
may wanna leave a little more tag end on that loop.
Thats a petes rubber legs fly.
Nice , looks good trimmed down . Thanks for the video
Thank you very much!
Looks easy enough
*I bought these and used them at the river where I get snags often they have done a **enjoyable.fishing** recommend great job of not breaking along with some strong line I purchased as well. They are super durable and easy to use.*
*Have used the braided line for several years **enjoyable.fishing** recommend both for salmon in the summer as well as walleye through the ice. Can’t beat it for the price!*
That's an awesome pattern for smaller flys it could be tied many ways for sure thank you for sharing
No talk no watch . Sorry
I cringed the whole time just before the rod broke.
