I started tying over 60 years ago. Tying both dry and wet flies with duck or goose wings. I still fish the “old” style flies and have had great success fishing in the East and West. Thanks for the video Charlie.
It’s a shame today’s fly tyers don’t tie these older, traditional flies that always work. Thanks for this video and I have put it aside for tonight for reference.
Thanks Charlie for a terrific demonstration of making those Catskill style duck wings! You do make it seem easy!
