Hi there,
Bugbond and Solaris is One and the same product only that bugbond is little more tweakt for flytying by the person who worked ad Solaris he is the one that invented Bugbond for flytying.
Solaris is not able to sell it as a bugbond because it has a patent by the owner/inventor.
Still Bugbond is in my opinion little better than Solaris,
Great tying to all.

This seems to be a very useful fly. Where can a tyer get the Jamiesons yarn? I've tried several craft stores and can't find it.

Hello,

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

Cheers

hi barry i attended the bffi fair today where i bought one of your little booklets, proven patterns flies sor sea trout saltwater,and what an excellent little book it is, however it would have been even better if it had contained the tying instructions for all of the ten patterns featured. also could you let me know when your booklet in the same series, flies for bass mullet and other sea fish will be released, many thanks dave

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.

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

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

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 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. 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!

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 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 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.

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?

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 been tying for a while now, years. I am going to try some streamers. I am amazed by their beauty. They don't look all that hard

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.

Best Regards Odd - Julian Martinsen ( Norway )

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
