Hello,

For proper support, the wading back-support belt should fit lower in the lumbar region.

C.J.Dorchak,

There is a part 5, but it's mainly a praise of one specific tube vise, so not really generally interesting. You can find it on Tim's YouTube channel.

I can't find a Part

I can't find a Part 5 of Tube Flies tutorials. Was one generated?

One of the best fly

One of the best fly fishing videos I ever seen. The takes with the bows jumping are incredible! Congrats!

Great! Thanks Marti

Great! Thanks Martin. Your 2012 article is quite comprehensive. All your hard work is always appreciated. Cheers!

John,

I may do so

John,

I may do something based on the presentation and the experience from the workshops. Much of what I will say is covered on the site already, but I will most likely add something specific about getting pure white and pure black backgrounds and a few other things not mentioned in the existing articles.

It was fun doing the Nikonians as well as the GFF podcasts, but also a lot of work. I have been thinking about doing something again, both about fishing and about photography, but it won't be as much afield as the old ones.

Martin, Will you be

Martin, Will you be producing an article based on your photography workshop? I will not be able to attend since I'm in the US celebrating my birthday on the 12th. (Still miss your Nikonian podcasts)

Cheers!

Thank you Martin. I

Thank you Martin. It's so nice to watch videos that have a soundtrack where I can hear the natural sounds of the river, the walking through the forest, the anglers voices, etc. Beautiful!

Jim,

Tim might see your comment here, but the best way to contact him is probably through his YouTube page.

I was watching Tim C

I was watching Tim Camissa tying a improved PT nymph and he had a material clip that he liked very much. I have been looking for a clip that will hold and I think the one he used would do the trick. I don't know if this will go to Tim, if it doesn't could you give me an email that I could contact him?
I'm trying to find out where he got the material clip and what the name/distributer is to send for one, Thank You,
Jim Ritter.

Derek De Young's art

Derek De Young's art work is truly fabulous. My goodness, what a talent!
The colors and movement throughout each piece is truly inspiring.

INCONCEIVABLE... Salty pike... Cats playing with dogs... Blizzards on on Cape Cod-all-gone... What's this crazy world coming to...?! I'm always pleasantly informed by these brilliant Martin J Journals... ;)

Bill, We have no

Bill,

We have no direct contact with Davie McPhail, but just feature his colossal series of fly-tying videos. You can consider posting a comment on his YouTube channel and ask him to tie the Juice Bug Damsel.

Martin

I love Davie's ties

I love Davie's ties and enjoy watching his videos. I am sure I saw one of his flies titled juice bug damsel but didn't find it here. Is it possible to add it?

Thanks

George,

Thanks for the kind words - and thanks for being a reader.

This is the SITE

This is the SITE, many replicates no equals tho, the overall appeal and information is incredible i personally have elevated my personal fishing and tying skills from the plethora of videos and articles. Pros or beginners have something to learn perusing this site. Thank you much GFF!

I have ben watched a lot of Davie McPhail fly tying video, and I wondering is it possible to copy the picture and the recipe.
I am tying flies only for my own use.
If I can copy the picture and the recipe can you show me how I can copy the picture.

A magnificent patter

A magnificent pattern beautifully tied. I would like to find a source for the velcro dubbing brush and needle tool used in the video. I am a hardcore tool/gizmo junky and I can't stand to see a tool I don't have. I would really appreciate a source if you have one before my wife sends me to fly tying tool rehab.

James,

I honestly

James,

I honestly don't think glue sticks is something that's suited for home making, and have no idea how to make them. You probably need a chemical lab to develop a recipe for glue sticks and make some that will work properly. It's much easier and probably less expensive to buy them.

This is a marvelous site

This is a marvelous site and despite tying tubes for many years it is always good to see the fresh ideas on here. On another very related subject can anyone help with some information about which areas to fish for Salmon and Sea Trout in Denmark? Not too expensive and where I don;t have to spend my days driving instead of fishing. Somewhere within reach of Copenhagen
