First, let me say how much I appreciate the excellent quality of your videos. You have provided a clear, concise, extremely informative compendium that has been my main resource for technical improvements in my tying. I've seen that, on some patterns, you will use thread to build up the body or provide coloration whereas I will typically use floss on the same pattern. Do you notice any difference in action or durability comparing floss and thread? Again, thanks so much Mr. Misiura. You are a real master and those us who strive to become one appreciate you sharing your skills and expertise with us.

Best,

Matt Glascock

I missed out on a golden opportunity to learn from one of the best fly tiers on the east coast (my grandfather) It wasn't till after he passed that I got interested in both fly fishing & tying. Lucky for me my uncle is pretty darn good himself and was willing to teach me the basics. But once I found your videos it was game on because I no longer had to drive him crazy every time I had a question or wanted to add a new type of fly to my fly box. Your videos are the best and have been very helpful. Thanks a million!

I am totally new to fly fishing and fly tying. I would like to thank you for the easy instructions for tying flies, but my problem is I have no idea what the difference is in a wet and dry fly. Could you possibly give me a guideline so that I will know what to use and how to differentiate between them. Thanks very much.

Jim, a bit later in life than I had planned, I'm finally getting back into flyfishing, just in time for my retirement from the Canadian Army. I have also taken up fly tying and have been searching the internet for how-to videos for a while; however, I just came across your videos today and must say, they are some of the best that I have seen. Great explanations with nice clear shots of every step. While my Egg Sucking Leech may not be quite as refined as your's, I'm hoping that the Ontario Ganaraska River Steelhead will find it annoying enough to take a snap at it this April. Super site and excellent videos. Thank you very much for the instruction and the inspiration. Cheers, Colin.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
