Awesome fly Davie. Nicely tied and well explained. Many thanks for sharing.

Davie
I really enjoy your videos. They are very helpful. All the best from Toronto. Cheers
great looking fly the wing looks like it will make a good footprint in the surface, thanks again davie all the best.
Well done and a great looking pattern for any box.
Another simple, but effective fly. I really like the CDC wings. These look great if you have quality CDC...makes all the difference! I too tie flies with CDC and the fish really seem to like them. John
Hi John,
I do have very good CDC feathers, they came from a company called Premier Angling Supplies in Ireland the gentleman that owns the company is Pat Nolan and he's one of the best..I'm glad you liked the fly..
All the very best Davie...
@@DavieMcPhail would you like some poly dub various colours? Let me know will quite happily send them down to you.
What a great looking fly !! You're an amazing tier !!
Спасибо автору за ваши работы. Все работы достойны уважения.
I have been watching you for years. I keep thinking there has to be a repeat coming up soon. No, I guess that is what keeps you motivated to keep inventing new patterns. All the best, Sean
Delicate and beautiful! Thank you!
beautiful fly Mr. mcphail
nice looking pattern for sure
you are a master , well done
Good Work! Thanks for Showing!
Surprised to see you didnt varnish the body! love the fly as always davie. I have become partial to using Rite bobbins, was wondering which brand and style you prefer. Keep those videos coming, best wishes from New York!

Hi Scott,
I've found the superglue holds the body really well and varnishing it will certainly make it much more durable as you know...I've used a few bobbin holders over the years and been quite happy with most but I have been using the Tiemco Heavy Duty version since 1990 so I would say I'm happy with this one as you are with the Rite bobbin holder so stick to this one as you do get used to the feel and the way it works with the threads and spools you use...I will certainly keep making the videos and all the very best from Scotland..
Davie...
Lovely
👍🏻
nice fly tankiou Davie
Would love to see you do a video how u strip and dye your quills I struggle
like a lot off lads I bet
Hi Patrick,
There's one or two good videos on youtube showing how to strip the herl from the peacock eyes, I have attached the video for you to see..I would always dye the peacock eyes first then bleach the herl off, then I'll soak the quills in hair conditioner to help keep them soft which stops them going brittle...

All the very best Davie....
Davie McPhail thanks davie
Great video Davie ...love the 'V'' wing you created and then secured with UV resin....thank you for sharing...as a 'UV beginner ' may I please ask what UV resin and torch you typically use these days ?...lots of choices /varying prices/quality on the internet...guessing you've probably tried most resins and torches out there so would welcome your opinion...many thanks
Hi T K,
The first resin that came on the market was the bug bond and I have used it from the start,I even have their pro torch that came with the resin ad it still works perfectly today..I mostly use the lite version though the regular is better for the larger flies as it's much thicker and builds up far easier..I have tried a few others but I find many of them have a strong smell coming from them which I don't like..I have attached a link to the setup I use for you to see..
All the very best Davie..

Bob Miller.
Fantastic skill Davie fine art at its best. Where do you get your materials from ?. Keep the vids coming.
Hi Bob,
I'm glad you enjoy the way I tye and the videos, thank you for the kind words...
The CDC I bought from Premier Angling in Ireland, you can find them on facebook, the gentleman you want to talk to is Pat Nolan..
All the very best Davie...
Cool, nice fly.... One question: Fly tying amd everything around, you this for fun or is it your work you do (earning money with it)?
Great vid's.I would say the most professoinal Fly tying Channal by far👍🎣
Hi Jaron, Markstahler,
Tying flies and working on the videos here on CZcams is now my all time job though I still would say the it's my hobby as well..I'm glad you enjoy the video and that you feel they are of a high standard which does mean a huge amount to me so thank you very much..
All the very best Davie..
Thanks for quick answering.
I have just one other quest.: If I'm allowed to know it, if I would tie flies, do vid's and sell my flies, would it be enough to earn enough money or live with it. Or otherwise asked:
Are you selling your flies, do you earn your main money through fly tying vid's(CZcams), could you tell me a little what's about your circumstances?
You don't have to answer, it would be just extremely useful for me.
All the Best
Jaron Markstahler 🎣
? Please answer.
Hi Jaron,
If I had to be honest tying flies and making the videos will not make you rich as I just get by, but I would say though I rather do this than work in a job I didn't like...I have always looked for sponsors but they would rather give you a shirt or a packet of hooks than pay you but you can't live on this..I hope this answers some of your questions...
All the very best Davie..
Hey Davie,
I have been looking for the video of the dry you tie where you split the cdc wing with another cdc feather. Cant seem to find it maybe you know what I am talking about. It's very similar to the one you split the wing with foam but its cdc. Thanks.
All the best,
Brock.
Hi Brock,
I was tying this style of fly today but on size 16s 14s and 12s, it a great way to split the wing...I have attached a video of one of the videos which shows this method for you to see..
