During this video, I feature guest tyer Bruce Cox, a local fly tying legend in the Pittsburgh area. Bruce shares some incredible techniques in this one, such as burning wings, splitting mayfly tails, taming thread, and tying thorax patterns. There's lots of great stuff going on in this video, and we are positive you will learn some new techniques from it!

Thanks for viewing this YouTube fly tying tutorial, and I encourage you to view my additional videos at the following website: http://www.troutandfeather.com

Let me know what you think of this pattern, and if it's one you will tie or fly fish with. Feel free to leave any additional variations, questions, or comments on this YouTube page, or you can email me: tcammisa@gmail.com

Fly fishing for beginners can be difficult at first, thus be sure to stick with it and ask others for advice. If in the need for some helpful tips and other fly tying and fly fishing information, be sure to check out my "Trout and Feather" accounts on Facebook and Instagram...

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.
