Seems like forever since I last went fishing, ice not that good yet for ice fishing either, so I?m staying informed on the W.F.N. site and tying flies that I will be using next season.
Right now I am tying Mayflies to be ready for the hatches that occur here in my region. In the video you see me tying a ?fluttering? type of Mayfly. It is tied just contrary to a conventional fly; that is, the head of the fly starts at the rear of the hook instead of at the front of the hook.
Tying a fly in this manner gives it a fluttering erratic action when slowly retrieved through the water.
