Wow what a great little bug. You make it look so easy! I bet it’d be great as a PMD on a slightly larger Hook. Can’t wait to tie some up and float it down the mighty Mo. Thanks Charlie!!
-
Such a fantastic fly!!!
-
can't believe i never thought about cutting that part of the biot off you are the best fly tier on the planet Charlie hands down
-
Boom 💥 Shaka 🤙🏻 Laka 🎉 Nice Thread Work Charlie. ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️ 🌟🎣💫
-
Great tie, as always. Love that pattern and have tied quite a few but definitely gonna try your CDC/tweezer technique to eliminate the middle stem. That’s cool!
-
Fantastic tie. Especially in #18. Struggled with this one at 16 for a bit
-
Nice job on the explanation while tying.
-
I really like this one Charlie; once my dispute with the postal service is settled, I will get the shipment package from you, but no contents; I will re-fill the order and buy even more stuff.
-
Great tie! I will need to tie some up! Quick question...do you use any floatant on the hackle of this fly when you fish it?
-
So, sizes for BWO 16-20, PMD 14-18? Looking forward to tying some up. Thanks for sharing! 🎣

Think Cree would make it suck? ❤

Charlie...is that X series hook comparable to a TMC 100?
