- Deer hair work will always be a skill that baffles even the most seasoned tyers. There are constant improvements and innovations that make the muddler minnow look elementary. The best thing to do is learn the basics and build your foundation from there. I hope these tips help everyone out as much as possible.
Thanks Josh, I really appreciate you taking the time to get into the intricacies of deer hair heads.
Thanks Tom, deer hair has been my favorite material to tie with for a long time and I'm glad to share my lessons learned over the years, glad it helped out!

This video has help my deer hair tying immensely. I have made a big Improvement in my deer head and body tying watching this video. I actually look forward to using deer hair. Thanks so much!
That's awesome Mike, deer hair is certainly a love/hate relationship with most folks. Once you get control of it, it's really a lot of fun to work with.
Grate jod as always thank you for your time sir and slowing down some of the heads so we can all get better with deer hair
Glad you found the video helpful Charles. Thank you for the continued support!
Heh. I am forever forgetting to tie the GSP onto the fly after I get finished with the non-deer material. Thanks for the demo!
That was a big help. It's been a while since I last watch this video. Going back and watching them again refreshes my memory. Thanks
Fantastic video! I know this video will help my fly tying. Thank you for sharing your time and the video. P.S. I'm definitely interested in what you have to say. Thanks again
Thanks as always Mike!
What does one do when "the back goes south"???
Gets a mental uplift from Josh!!!
Thanks Josh for all the help and advice given in your videos...its like having a mate on tap. I live in the UK where fishing streamers is not at all common. After all the restrictions are over I'm on it again with the results of your tutorials...Take care and see you later
Thank you, and I'm glad you enjoy the videos! I know a few folks in the UK that are big into streamers, but they share the same sentiments...its certainly not the norm. Hope the videos continue to help out.
I know im asking randomly but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the account password. I love any tricks you can offer me

Perfect timing on uploading this video! I was going to "attempt" to do some today (for the first time). These tips should help me minimize my mistakes. You da man!
Thanks Steve, hopefully this helped out.
Very nice work! I do have one question....where did you get, or, how did you rig up your comb/brush there on your desk?? That looks handy as all heck!
I recent started using the midsection off the bucktail, the part that most people dont use ,its stronger dan deer Hair en for some flies its easyer for me and cheaper
I need far more praktice before i get to your level 👍
killer video man thanks for sharing
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Superb! 👍👍👍
Thank you as always!
Great video!!
Thank you Mark!
This video really helped me out. Your tip on the collar is really gonna help me, I've been trying to tie the collar and head together and having problems. But, you have cleared me up up on that. Your collars look GREAT as well as all your work. Your really good!!!.. I'm leaning so, much from you. I sure would like this Video on DVD, do you offer any for sale on DVD??.. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Keep the Video's coming. Stay Safe!!..
Thanks Mike, I really appreciate it, and I'm glad the videos help out. I've thought about the DVD thing before, but I really haven't looked at the overhead/logistics of it. Maybe one of these days I will put one together on all of the different deer hair styles.
@@varnersstreamers that would be great.
What scissors are you using? Really enjoy your thorough, thoughtful videos.
Thanks Wesley, I go between my MFC scissors and the Fiskars for deer hair work.
JV! i enjoyed this one very much! great tips on how to cut it off the hide & i had been packing the head (fly #1) smh..very beneficial videos as alwsys. & where do you buy the comb that is tacked to your desk? i comb by hand but rather not. thank you!
Thanks as always Patricia! I picked this one up from Kelly's website. I can send you a link if you'd like.
@@varnersstreamers i found it on Kelly's website! thank you!
what makes you decide to do a spin/stack hybrid instead of purely a spin or purely a stack? and does the amount of hair you grab differ between the techniques? Sorry if you answered these in the video and I missed it
Michael, I typically spin/stack when I'm using only one color of hair for the tightly compacted heads. If I'm using two or more colors, I will go with a straight stack. For spinning, I use that technique when I'm tying heads that are less compact. I do grab more hair when I'm spin/stacking than all other techniques. Thanks for the question.
Do an 18 goddard caddis Josh :)
Lol, challenge accepted. Hopefully the cameras can do it justice.
