This fly looks awesome!
Love to watch a master tier at work!
Nice fly!
Great tie....great tips too....very happy to find this channel and subscribe to it. Colorado native and a big fan for a long time. Thanks Charlie.
You made that look so easy . Thank you great video and I love the magazine!
Good job! Clear narrative and sound basic techniques - easy and understandable for any lvel fly tyer, even an old curmudgeon who is set in his ways. - Chuck Stranahan
Very nicely filmed and described. I haven't tied a fly in decades, so it delights me to see the makers now offer barbless hooks. Mashing barbs flat was always my first step in tying a fly. I wonder how many times I did that.
Excellent lesson thank you sir
That is a true work of art.
Great video. Thank you.
Thanks for the tips! Nice tie.
His underbody looks better than my finished flies 🤣 actually I'm really happy with where I'm at. Learned about 25 years ago when I was 13 and was obsessed with it for 5 years. Joined the military and forgot about it. Recently picked it up again and it's like I never quit. Thank God for these youtube videos though. Makes tying so much easier than when I first learned from books😂 so many little tips and tricks that would take years of practice to figure out on your own.
Awesome fly! I'm hesitant to give suggestions to a master like Charlie, but am going to do it anyway. I totally hear you about losing patience waiting for things to dry. I recently discovered (thanks to my wife) the world of UV cure finger nail polishes. The black one is phenomenal for perdigon wing cases. I especially like that it is thick and creates a nice bulbous, ready to burst, wing case. An $8 dollar bottle from the local "W" store will do hundreds of perdigons.
I'm thinking Charlie Craven is well aware of UV cure materials... ;-)
Thank you for sharing !!
Thanks for filming that. As always, excellent, top notch fly.
💯👍💪👏 looks great!
Nice fly :-) with the advent of UV resin it really does make it quick to tie and they look so good
Very nice!
nice can't wait to try one
Compton is full of good tricks and tips. I’m glad he is only 20 mins from my house. Typically when I tie quill bodies I just stick the quill in my mouth for a min and then tie in and go.
I've noticed so many of the perdigon flies out there that, to me, seem like they have a disproportionately large bead. Is it me, or is there a wave of using large beads? It doesn't look quite balanced, to me. Your fly bucks what I see out there, and your bead is proportioned perfectly. Of course, that's what I would expect from a Charlie Craven tied fly... :-)
The big bead is made to fish in very deep pools with small flies. Its useful on warters with hig fishing pressure. In this kind of waters, some Trouts or Graylings will refuse any big Nymph...
For size 14, i tie from 2,5 to 3,8 mm.
Have you tried running a permanent marker along the edge of the peacock herl before tying?
What brand of peacock quill is that and where can I buy it? Is that color natural?
even quicker would be the Solarez black UV
You are a handsome man
Nice tie, but why use those cheap shit hooks
Meh uses cheap Chinese made hooks.
I noticed that some well known companies sell Chinese Hooks with their own Label, so it buy my Hooks directly from China. The quality is good...
@@icedaft Maybe... or maybe not. You'd think the quality is good until a big fish pretzels one of them. Pay what they cost and fish with the best hooks you can find - and they ain't Chinese!
