Charlie, Your "Basic" and "Fly Box" books have been a valuable source for me. Thank you very much for taking the time to do the videos and thank you for helping make me a better tier (Lord knows, that's a HUGE challenge.)
"fish eat worms, salmon eggs, and marshmallows... if its just about catching fish, you wouldn't be here on a Saturday.... it's about tying nice flies!" You said it brother! Those 'nice flies' end up being the difference between 1 and 0 on the tough days. Great tying tips, thanks.
Charlie`s great. I`m lucky enough to live near his shop. Always willing to share his expertise and his humor. Excellent products and advise. Very laid back and not just Charlie...All the guys at the shop
Charlie, This is the first time I have ever commented on a CZcams video. I have watched literally hundreds of videos on fly tying. I learned more in the 14 minutes of this video than I have from all others. Thanks for posting this. Any chance you'll be in Bozeman this winter giving any seminars? The Parachute anything has been a constant struggle for me. This has helped me refine my tying.

# 16 dry fly hook, Grey Goose Biot, Grey Thread 10/0 or 14/0, Grizzly and Brown Necks (Whiting) Superfine Dubbing in Grey. White floating Posting material Same stuff you would tie spinner wings with. Pretty standard.
Beautiful job, cogent presentation. Probably the best tier I have ever had the privilege to watch tie a fly.
