For today’s Tying Tuesday, we have 2 brand-new fly patterns, and a video about various fly connecting lights. Getting a great light can make a substantial distinction in for how long, and efficiently, you have the ability to connect flies. The one I have is a few of the very best cash I have actually ever invested. After that, you’ll get dealt with to a great midget pattern and an enjoyable banner!
We begin with this video from Gig Harbor Fly Store, which isn’t a connecting tutorial, however a take a look at the very best fly connecting lights they have actually utilized. Getting a great light (I have a magnifying glass/light combination) is among the very best things you’ll provide for your connecting.
Up next is an enjoyable midget pattern called the 5 O’Clock Shadow. This is done up by the folks at AvidMax, and I truly like how buggy this fly looks. A great deal of our midget patterns tend to be structured and tidy, however I believe these shabby-looking ones can be more reliable sometimes.
The last fly is a winter season steelhead banner, from Mainely Flies. These steelhead-specific banners are constantly great for those fish, however I have actually frequently discovered they work simply as well for “routine” trout, too. All the flash and motion gets the attention of almost any fish, I reckon.
