Big CFB Merch Drop Hit The Shop This Week!!
What A cool fly. I gotta say I am so happy I don’t have to go out and buy expensive materials for this one. I have been a fan of using one fly at a time on stronger leader material than recommended by some authors…..some days one fly and one knot is how I can roll on the water all day long!
Crackin' Ace.
Now a fella ought to come up with a "Matt Stone Fly"
Beautiful 🎉tie Charlie very enjoyable to watch. By the way, I kept watching to see what you were going to do with that second comp of material that you split in half :-)
Body Quill is such a cool and under-utilized material. Sweet pattern!
The quadruple super fly
This one looks like a great pattern, Charlie.
nice job! looks like a winner!
Thanks charlie for another fine inspirational fly to tie. I like the simplicity of the tie as well as the tips u provide to make a more efficient tie. I can see color variarions to add to this pattern
yo charlie…. your a fucking wizard with the thread🤯
What would you say is the best colors for western U.S. trout? Nice ty! Tight l😮nes🕷️🐛🐜!!!)
Sweet
What size bead do you use for a size 22?
Another great looking fly from the master, thanks for sharing and looking forward to the next one.
Thank You Charlie ….. I’ve been waiting for this pattern since You teased that it was coming 🎉 Enjoy the water ….. 🌟 🎣 💫
Just the trico pattern I have been looking for. Awesome video. Looks like I’ll be able to see this one great on slower water. Ed Koch would approve … and Ed Engle!
Great looking fly!
Talk about a dandy tie. Nice one.
YT hasn’t suggested your tying videos in a while, even though I’m subscribed to your channel. I missed your awesome tying, Charlie! This is a wonderful pattern for those juicy salmon flies… Nice fly!
I will Euro nymph that no problem
Question: why use two hackle vs. Multiple wraps of one? (That furnace hackle is spectacular, thank you for carrying it in your shop).
Left handed whip finish is my nemesis.
...and they taste like lemons, lol!
Very enjoyable Q&, once again very valuable insights from Charlie. I have Euro fished for about 4 years now and have come to the conclusion that it is just one of the many techniques available to us that is best suited for the situation. I now rarely just solely use one technique these days. Thanks Charlie for another great video. PS I mentioned to Max while I was in the shop that I would greatly appreciate a video on the characteristics of all the various dubbings out there.
Beautiful ty!!! Tight lines🐜🕷️🐛!!!!!
Nice and simple👍. Tight lines🕷️🐛🐜!!!!
Fished the best pmd hatch I've ever seem on the lower provo river last week. I could see thousands of the nymphs in the water in all stages and all forms of the adults. The fish were eating everything! I could catch them on everything that looked like a pmd. It was so good!
Great video! Lots of good info here.
Is that flouro-fiber the same as EP or is it something different? Thanks

How do all these bug hatches compare to the east coast? I'm in northern Virginia and still trying to learn what bugs I should be using when
Here in the North East and PA, it's the Sulpher Hatch. A creamy orange to a yellow bug, in the 14 to 18 range. Its on now and has been since the end of May- it will continue well into July. Its one of my favorite hatches to fish.. It can also drive you nuts too. I keep it simple: a sparkle dun is what I fish most of the time, but of late, Fran Betters Usual has been really doing the trick for me late in the fishable day. It's a messy fly, but I like tying them. One of the problems that I have been having is that the waters I fish are heavily fished. They see a lot of flies. So, I keep trying to tie mine a little differently. It pays off at times. The other thing is that we are in low water conditions, and well, it's better not to even go into the water at all. They are spooky fish, but most ignore that and wonder why they don't get any hookups. Also, with last week's hot weather, I have not been fishing at all due to the water temps. The next big hatch is going to be Trico's. Go small or go home- I am looking forward to getting up at 3 am so I can make the 90-minute drive to the West Branch of the Farmington before sunrise. For some odd reason, Sulpher's and Trico's are two of my favorite hatches to fish.
Don Craven, on this day of your YT video, I pledge my support to hit the like button.
Charlie?
@@tinoyb9294 apparently you’re not a Godfather fan.
@@ruebdogg1 correct
during a pmd hatch i always enjoy catching emergers in the drift and watching them hatch in my hand. it's like watching a miracle happen.
Heads up regarding the black spotting around the underside of your Dyna-king's jaws. Stainless steel is resistant to corrosion via it forming a micro-surface layer of metal oxide which, once deep and even enough, acts like a resistant skin. Therefore, where the incipient oxide layer is repeatedly removed, say by inadvertant finger rubbing, the salts in hand sweat can initiate pitting corrosion, which presents as the black spots seen in this close-up footage. These pits can progress to a surprising depth if left unaddressed. Pitting is more likely to initiate where the stainless has been surface hardened via heat treatment. I have stolen one of my wife's flexible nail buffing 'sticks' which has three grades of gently abrasive surface on it. It is perfect for buffing away any such marks as soon as they appear and keeps my beloved Barrucuda looking brand new.
Quick question,.. I was at Deckers on Monday....high flows and beautiful day, and was working with what i learned from this video, and feel I couldve added more weight to slow my drift, but that kept my indicator under water,... what indicators do you use with big tippet, weight, and weighted flies?...
Usually yarn, but a big AirLic or Oros would do the job too. Make sure you’ve got enough space between the indicator and the lead though. 1.5X the water depth
Awesome!🔥
The new glasses look great on you Charlie!
Really nice profile from below where it counts. As another former young guy, I learned to fly fish in Maine when it was flat out illegal to use lead weights or more than fly at a time. Doing otherwise meant a high probability of meeting a displeased game warden. Even sinking lines were questionable.
Not the Caddis fly we deserve … but the Caddis fly we need! -The Proletariat
All those young tyers out there who are now in treatment or in asylums, it is your fault!! You probably should have told them that handling elk hair that masterfully takes YEARS, not hours, of practice and experience. Such a great pattern, and even if mine don't quite look as nice, tight, and clean, they still catch a LOT of fish! At least you told them about the secret tool, though. That helps.
Warren Duncan technique with the floss...salmon fly tyer from New Brunswick
Great looking caddis pattern! Thank you for the video Charlie. I’m on vacation with the wife at the beach and can’t wait to get home and hit the vise to tie a few up!
Very nice,like the color,thanks for acknowledging the older brother the Girdle Bug,tie mine on the Umpqua U106 hook & like the bend,tight lines 🤙😊
A pike episode with Barry Reynolds?!
Wow.. I like this!!
Top tutorial tying and fishing advice. Thanks
Great concept pattern for a sedge Charlie! Hearty thanks for the lesson... BTW, my old dk pro is soon to need some replacement jaws, do you have an ETA of when one might be able to buy them?
They’re coming….a month or so?
Is there another dubbing that might work here? Maybe bruiser blend?
Rabbit, hare’s mask, short coarse synthetics… I believe bruiser blend is a long synthetic?
@@CharliesFlyBox I need quite a few things anyway, maybe I’ll hit up the website and grab some hairs mask dubbing!
Give the hopper, copper, dropper, flopper, mopper, bopper crowd hell Charlie!
Can’t wait to give this one a try! Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏻🎣
