Bob's Comments


Originator: Herb Welch

Tying tip - Use the uni stretch in a bobbin as thread and tie the tinsel in as you're winding back to the bend, and the tail in as you "turn around". Tie off with black thread and wind the tinsel forward. Finish the fly as normal.

The only knot you need... almost

This is definitely going to get me in trouble! But I guarantee you that if you learn this knot you will be able to get very far in almost all kinds of flyfishing. Use this for your daily knotting and use loops for the rest (backing to fly line, fly line to leader), and you will be able to make it through many, many fishing days.

I can still remember the fist fish I caught on a streamer, a stocked brook trout on a Royal Coachman streamer. Since that time I have had success many times fishing these long flies. In my early days of fly fishing I bought all of my flies.
