Thanks! I think it's my favorite cast ;)

Heck yeah! I use this all the time in most of my flies!

Absolutely! Thank you so much for watching and welcome to the journey of fly tying!

Great question! For flies that I don't want the hook to necessarily get caught up in the fly materials, I really like to use wire, but for flies where I want to incorporate the trailer hook in the fly or am not worried about the hook getting caught up in the materials, braid can be great (and cheaper lol). Thank you for watching and for your question!

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide awesome, thank you!!

That's not a bad idea actually :). I'll definitely try that for sure!

Thank you so much for watching!!

For sure! It's a super nice rod for the price :). Thank you for watching!

If it's the on I'm thinking of, it's a Speyco reel. and thank you so much for watching!

Thank you so much for watching Steve! Good luck out there!

For sure! I can't remember where I saw it first, but it helps a lot keeping those pesky materials away from the front of the fly! Thank you for watching!

This could look like a bait fish, or young trout or salmon or large "bug"

Thank you! The main thing in bait is the result. If he catches it, then everything is fine🤝

This is just my way of doing it, but I do appreciate the feedback.

This is just demonstrating another way to do it. I appreciate the advice though :)

Most folks getting started with Fly Tying don’t have access to a clamp so this is an excellent way to negotiate that tool deficiency

Hey Dave! Great to hear from you! Yes I sure am! Here's my site www.cooperlandingfishingguide.com I'd love to help make that dream a reality!

Oh yeah totally, I was just demonstrating how you could tie in caribou with a dubbing loop Mainly to control the length or to use maribou that is down towards the thicker stem that usually doesn't get used)

​@@CooperLandingFishingGuidethanks for the answer!

Sure thing!! @@alfredorusso9263

For sure! Seems like you could tow a car with them lol

That's so awesome! If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to reach out any time!

There are a few methods... I generally split the "pulls" (how many strips of line I'm bringing in) in two sections to make it a bit easier to manage. Maybe I'll make a video on line management :)

You can for sure, but in most instances, you shouldn't need one :)

I appreciate you taking the time to point that out. Thank you for your comment

It's generally known as a "hot spot". Sometimes it helps as an attractor in flies (or at least we think so lol)

I like what you tie!

Thank you so so much!

Not in a very positive mood today are we?

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide How insecure are you that you mistake that for confrontation?

That means so much! I really appreciate the kind words!

Lol I still love this rod... I am using the Airflo Skagit compact and the skagit fist on this rod in 510 grain :)

Awesome! So glad you like it!! it's a fun one!!

Yeah, I made this 4 years ago when my channel first started. I can't change shirts now, but in the future I will take that into consideration.

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide your channel is excellent , it was just a suggestion for the future. I have never watched one of your vids when I didn’t think you are an inventive and excellent tyer.

@@kevinknight7638 I really appreciate that for sure Kevin

Sure thing! I can't remember where I first saw it, but yep, it's super helpful!

Thank you so much Craig!

Thank you so much!

Hey There! I definitely do like to add dubbing as a prop from time to time. This one has quite a bit of movement and I like the slimmer profile, but with a dubbing composite loop, It might stand up and have a bigger profile which is also awesome :)

Great question! There's definitely some finesse to it for sure. It always takes me a few tries with smaller tippet that's for sure. I usually end up wasting a bit more line than I want, but you can sometimes pull the tag end through a bit to make it smaller. Hope that helps!

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide I’ll give it a try

Generally, due to the "short strike" nature of some fish on the swing. Mostly trying to make the fly longer, while also being able to have a shorter shank hook so the fish don't have leverage that they would normally have with a longer shanked hook. It also gives the fly much more movement.

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide i asked because i have started tying double hook 1 and rear 6 rear articulated streamers couldnt see why a shank would be a better choice than a hook and still not sure. Spey flies remind me of the old school NY eaatern double hook streamers in contrast to the west double hook using fine cable between hooks.

@@GregariousAntithesis Ah gotcha! You could absolutely do that for sure. Up here in Alaska, multiple hooks are illegal in most waterways, so if the front "shank" were actually a hook, you could just cut off the hook (that's how these types of flies were originally tied) - with a donor hook as the front part of the fly :)

@@CooperLandingFishingGuide now that is some crazy shit. Illegal to have multiple hooks. I get not using treble hooks for obvious reasons but not multiple single hooks that doesnt even make sense why that would be an issue. Pure irony when you consider commercial fishing and bycatch.
