- In this video, I'll show you how to ty one of the most productive patterns, perfect for both beginner and experienced fly tyers b/c it's super easy, durable and most importantly effective. Without question, I always have this pattern with me but it's been especially productive in Colorado and Wyoming this summer. It's an easy pattern to ty on trips and doesn't require many materials, most of them I use in several patterns, like the caddis shown in my last video. I sometimes add a UV coating to the body and wing case to give it even more durability but even w/o it, this fly will hold up and catches a lot of fish!
Materials:
sz 14-16 (16 being most used)
UTC 70 black
CDL
Small gold wire (or your choice)
Turkey Biot Quills
Z-lon
Hare's ear dubbing

This is a great fly! Im going to spin up a few and see how they do with and without a bead! Thank you.
Great recipe. I’m tying up a bunch of them now to fish some of my northern mountain creeks this summer.
Sweet fly!! Nice and simple and looks GREAT!!!! Thanks for showing this!!!!
Thank u, I've definitely found myself heading to the uncomplicated side of fly tying over the last year!
Can’t wait to add some of these to my box! Thank you for all the amazing content. Keeping it simple is the way to go!
Thank u! Happy to share!
Very nice tying video. Can’t wait to tie this.
Great looking fly. I will certainly give it a go.
Caught a number of fish with this Sunday before last on the Lower Illinois. Thank you!!
Nice. Turkey biots are awesome. Thank you.
Very nice and simple tying. Thank you
Just watched again. Finished tyimg Bloody Marys, Walt’s worm ,San Juan worms…. Time for Drew’s pheasant tail
Good video , easy and understandable, no confusion, please make more dude, ill watch
Thank you...definitely the first time I've heard any of that lol!
Great tie! I really like to look of the turkey biot! I see you have a peak, next time add a half hitch and throw that bobbin on the cratel to open up some space.
To cool drew. I have never seen a fly tied by spinning the vice. Neat trick. I say make up a pattern using peacock or dark material and you can't go wrong. Nice video. 👍👍.
Try to take advantage of that rotary every chance I get! Nope two ingredients that often produce!
Pheasant tail and an elk hair caddis will work all day.👍
Those work most days...on lightly fished Freestones. But on tailwaters, still waters and heavily fished Freestones, you often gotta match the hatch.
That's a good looking fly 👌
Thank u much!
Wild trout here in WNC have been feeding heavily on all size mayflies recently. Gonna give this one a go in WV this weekend.
Should definitely put a few in the net!
Looks great
Nice fly
Nice tie Drew - I never thought to use z-lon as a wing case before !! But you need to name it so I can label it in my storage box... LOL. For now, I'm gonna name it the Look-n-Fishy Nymph ... or perhaps, Drew's Nymph #1 - waddya think ? :-) \Brian
What is z-lon ? Thanks!!
Great video. My goal is catch a trout on a fly that I tied. Thanks for taking the time.
Definitely takes it to a new level!
Mine as well im new to fly fishing and i cant get enough of it sometimes i feel like im trying to take in to much information but im trying to soak up all the knowledge i can. I catch fish on jigs and flys for spinners i tie all the time but not a fly on the fly rod yet.
Nice fly, Drew! Man that looks fishy!
Thanks man, been a good bug and one I can build up easily!
Any chance you will be doing a video on your favorite Perdigon fly? I was inspired by you to get into tying my own flies. My new vise arrive tomorrow and more feathers, hooks and beads are on their way. Thank you for all the great videos and explanations of what you are using and how you are fishing the area.
That's awesome! Learning to ty really completed the fly fishing experience for me. I haven't done one yet, mostly b/c there are so many on yt already. But my 2 favorite are shown in the, the only flies you need on a summer road trip out west. You probably already know but Tim Flagler of tightline video has great tutorials...where I went when I got started!
@@LooknFishy Thanks for the quick replay. I have watched several videos and people each have their own style. Could you tell me what supplies you use the make the fly. I've been trying to figure out of it is black dubbing or thread and if it has a brass wire or is it flash film. Also is it a 3mm tungsten bead or 3.5mm.
Thank you Drew. Very insightful. I"m newby to nymphs... does the wire make it sink on its own, or do you need a bead for that purpose?
Common sense, simple, pure genius
Hi there, .. nice job with your videos .. I am wondering, if you use any type of cement on the body, after you're done, to prevent fraying .. or, maybe you don't have problems, with that? .. thanks!
What material for the wing case and legs?
Nice fly, its a fishermen’s fly, good use of materials, functional to be used to catch trout not used to impress your abilities to tie perfect replicas. I watch a famous fly tier who makes perfect flies. I eventually watched a CZcams of him fishing a stream. 30 minutes into it he hadn’t caught a fish. Must have been a bad day. 😊
What brand of bobbin do you use
I mostly tie all my nymphs with tungsten beads, seems to be the most effective under a hi visibility parachute adams. This is my main rig. How do you fish this un weighted pattern Drew? I sometimes enjoy tying unweighted nymphs, but I don’t have much success with them. I fish the driftless here in Wisconsin. Just looking for rigging ideas, I would like to try more unweighted nymph patterns, but how to fish them effectively? Thanks. Huge fan of your videos by the way!
I fish a lot of unweighted flies using split shot to adjust the depth. Allows me to fish shallow riffles, shallow pockets or sight fish skinny water. I also fish a ton of tandem nymph rigs with a beadhead on top and an unweighted fly dropped as my 2nd fly. The unweighted fly takes a ton of fish in this situation b/c of the natural movement you get with unweighted flies!
@@LooknFishy thanks, I’m gonna give this a try this season.
I encourage you to give yourself more room to work. Your bobbin is beating that hook point to death.
Cool
Thank u!
Nice fly!!! What vise do you use or recommend?
Thank u. I have a peak rotary and really like it. Doesn't cost a fortune and covers me from sz 24 to 3/0!
Great looking fly Drew ... why wasn't it in you fly box in your video THE ONLY FLIES U NEED...?
It definitely could have been b/c it caught fish. But I travel west to fish dries which often means adding a dropper...so I fish more beadhead flies out west during the summer and this is unweighted. I fish this one more while nymphing as my 2nd fly off a bh fly!
@@LooknFishy makes sense. I'll try it.
Where do you like to get your fly tying materials? Looking for a place that has pretty much everything I need. I’m planning on tying the two flies you have videos on.
Js fly fishing (j stockard) pretty much for all the bread and butter materials. Fast shipping and pretty easy website to navigate. Been real happy with them and I have no affiliation. Just a real fan!
Little River Outfitters in Townsend, Tenn is a full line fly shop. They will send you any size order with no shipping. If you do not see it on their web site call them. Building their website. Been in business almost 20 years. My favorite fly shop
Do you think that topping the wing case would be a good idea?
I add a UV coating sometimes, especially if I add a flashback. It definitely adds some durability!
How do you like your Peak, Drew?
I really like it. It does everything I need and not complicated. Great for nymphs, midges and dries.. but maybe lacks the weight and jaw strength for dedicated streamer tying...buggers, coneheads are fine. Doesn't cost a fortune...so I'll bring it with my on my road trips.
soak the biots in water - much more durable during the tie.
I'll give it a try, thx for the tip!
Am a subscriber. Enjoy your videos. One suggestion: speak clearly and distinctly. Old guys like me have trouble hearing.
Haha, story of my life. If I could make myself do that...it would have saved me a lot of aggravation in life!
Right on James! Drew is the consummate expert fly fisherman, but as far as being a communicator... a mere mortal. Still love you Drew!
Basically a prince
Or PT!
@@LooknFishy not even close to a prince nymph
@@silverdoctor1345 I know which is why I said PT...but not gonna argue with anyone over it lol!
Long live Frank Sawyer
Totally disagree. The ONE durable trout mayfly you need to carry is the Copper John. As we say in my neighborhood: black thread was invented 10,000 years ago.
I like Cj's but they sink...limiting where they can be fished...this will fish high and low...behind a dry or a cj. Throw a tung or glass bead on it and it gets crazy lol!
You do not enunciate and you talk too fast. Get some voice coaching.
if you soak your boots in water first( about 20 min.) pryer to tying them on. there is less chance of them braking.
