Dude! That is a cool fly! I've been looking for a fly that uses squirmy woormies!

What hooks are you using on this fly ?

Thanks, I was thinking about the 10’ 3w. After seeing you I’m looking at the 10’ 2w.

Are you using a Wychwood parabolic drogue in this video? I’m looking to use a drogue with my drift boat. I’ve heard some people prefer conical drogues with drift boats due to the wind catching the bow more than the stern. However I’d like a drogue that I could use on a drift boat, as well as a flat-bottom aluminum boat. If you have a recommendation, I’d love to hear it!

What type net and size

I have to ask - what is the intro music please? I know it but can’t remember what it is or who wrote it.

Thanks for the informative talk at the beginning. Dense and to-the-point. A question, though -- on the first couple fish you catch, you seem well close-enough to tightline that area effectively. Are you choosing to float the sighter there just for demonstration purposes, or would you indeed choose to float rather than tight-line at that close of a range? Thank you.

Nice video Devin. A couple questions: Why did FIPS-MOUCHE ban the squirmy wormy? And how does the DNA worm compare in robustness to chenille worms?

So....about the fly fishing team. What is it? How does ine join? Is it fun? Is there a chance for compensation? Who di i bribe, sleep with, or kill to do it?

The depths to which people will sink to catch a fish... Real 'sportsmen' they are... You'll never see one of these in my fly box.

Fully agree with a single Davy for small flies - a very small and secure knot. I haven’t ever used a clinch knot, but certainly used a Double Davy on tippet rings and larger flies. The extra turn does not make the knot massive and adds just a little more security. Your mentor will of course told you, that droppers must be ‘fixed’, in fly fishing competitions where a designated fly line and leader are used. Sliding droppers were a fundamental part of Polish style fishing, but even they had to adapt for competitions! Outside of competitions, anything goes!😉

Excellent video for someone like myself who is very new to EN. What sort of length leader would you generally fish in water like that?

Great video! What are you using to attach the magnet to the net so it swivel like it does? Thanks

The Zoolander!

Random question. do you or have you considered using solder to attach your slotted beads? Do you have an opinion on it? I saw someone do it and tried it some. Felt like it kept me from fraying my tying thread on beads that had a sharp edge sometimes and added extra weight.... but it probably makes my flies slightly more inconsistent weight wise.

That's gonna be handy to make my Pts more durable

I was excited when I heard about this fly. Thanks for sharing. On a different note, do you have any Caddis patterns that you recommend for a Grannom larva and pupa?

What’s the sink rate comparable to with regards to your other patterns?

So - I read the description & see this is going to be in the FM catalogue soon. Is there a reason for that/is there any advantage to this over a traditional pheasant tail/frenchie? I can definitely see the advantage from a tying perspective (guide flies=quick & easy) but want to know if there’s anything differentiating this from a fishing perspective.

Watching your tying videos convinced me that fly tying doesn’t have to be as difficult as I had built it up in my head to be. I’ve had great success with all of your patterns and I’m sure this one won’t be an exception. Thanks!

Thanks! Gonna wooop some up👍🎏

Excellent 🎉 Thank You and they will soon be in My PT box 🎉 🌟 🎣 💫

Discovered the micro fritz some time back and have been doing similar things with it. So much quicker and more durable than PT. The body isn’t any flashier than PT plus a wire rib, and the color options are great. I’m partial to a CDC soft hackle pheasant tail tied with the fritz as a body, a little dubbing and a CDC collar. Killer fly and super quick. Thanks Devin.

Super cool Devin!!!

Hi a newbe Question? Would that be a good dropper knot, for simple Stillwater fishing? Like dry dropper ect. Two flies or both wet flies? Thanks for your help. Good info 👍

Very interesting fly. Have you by chance tried iridescent purple? Purple seems to work well here in Utah. When tying perditions, is there a hook size that you use the most? Thanks for the great videos.

Once again-great instruction!

Learn a lot for your videos so many thanks but I am not too clear on why the tubing is necessary - I get the idea of resin not adhering but is it really necessary? - i.e does the resin stick that much better?

The Pinky you tied recently was a big hit here in central PA! Thank you!!

I could be mistaken but i think this is a Seaguar knot not the Orvis Tippet knot. The Orvis Tippet knot, the tippet end loops twice around one of the loop legs. The Seaguar knot is typically used to connect fluorocarbon lines.

Very similar to a rainbow warrior, almost a variation with a bead.

This is a perfect solution to salmon and steelhead in NY when i want to get down and dont want an ounce of lead whipping around my noggin. Order pending.

I stopped using resin with tinsel because 1) It doesn't adhere due to tinsel's slickness 2) Since the tinsel is slick it sicks as fast or faster than resin 3) it is actually thinner. Medium size tinsel and UTC wire in dull colors makes them bullet proof. I love tan and white small wire and wish it was available in x-small.

Do you see a difference in adding a black wing case vs no wing case? I’ve tied them for years with no wing case and have had success but have not ever fished them with the wing case. Tubing was a great idea!

Another good one, Devon. Thank you for sharing.

That looks like a fish catching machine. Gonna have to get some of that blue perdigon tinsel. I really like the trick with the micro tubing as well. Gonna have to do that on my perdigon flies now. Thanks for sharing this fly and teaching an old dog a new trick! Tight lines!

Very useful explanation! I lost few big fish because they ran downstream with the current

I definitely love the creativity that we can have tying fly. I was just thinking about this problem (wrapping the body of the fly with some material that is something other than thread or mono so that the body remains the same color) with tinsel flies. Thanks for the tip.

Love this fly!! That’s a really cool idea with the tubing!!!

STOP I have been using blue for YEARS because A) it works and B) No one else used it. Now there is a lot of blue flies out there :) JK I am against gate keeping and nice fly.

Nice fly…what variant cdl is used here?

When does the Magnum perdigon come out?

What's the difference between this fly and the gasolina?

Nice one, can you swap 5x tippet for the tubing?

Do you use a blood knot to attach each 5 ft of tippet thanks great video

Great video. This is my goto dropper knot, but I actually use the tag facing back towards the rod because it loops away from the tippet section going to the anchor fly, helping to reduce tangles and providing more spacing. Thanks for posting this video.

Another rainy day here in central PA so going to practice this right now. Just started Euro nymphing a month ago. Thanks for an easy to follow video Also just subscribed!

Putting some of theses in my box now. Thank you👍🎏

Reporting back. This working for me. Thank you! I see that callus on your middle finger from 16/20. I need to go fishing more, i dont have one yet, still a bit ouchy😂🎏

Hanak and Tiemco have become my go-to brands for nymph hooks, Gamakatsu for dries. I've had strength issues with Firehole hooks, brittleness/breaking of the larger hooks, and bending out of smaller hooks, not to mention their jig hooks are labeled at least a size too small in my opinion (a 16 of theirs is closer to a 14 or even 12 of other brands). Its been a few years since I've bought any Firehole, hopefully their quality has improved.
