Tips for Measuring Mayfly Tails

No comments yet

During this brief fly tying tutorial, I explain a few parts of the dry fly hook essential in the measurement of tails when tying. From there, I tie the correct length for mayfly tails (the dun is tied and I explain dimensions for the spinner), while also showing a "cheater" that beginning tyers can use until they perfect their methods.

Thanks for viewing this tutorial, and feel free to leave questions/comments directly on this YouTube page or email me:

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

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.
