Here’s the latest video in our series called “One-Minute Fly-Tying Tips and Techniques,” from Tim Flagler of Tightline Productions. Each video teaches a single tying skill, from the most basic to the advanced. Ultimately, the series serves as an encyclopedia of tying skills that will be a valuable resource for anyone who sits down at a vise to create a fly.
There are a lot of materials on the market designed to help your flies float better, but which ones really perform as advertised on the water? Tim performs a fairly unscientific experiment by floating two inches of each material in a glass of water and then poking it to see how well the material reacts to being saturated. The truth is that they all do pretty well, but a couple really stand out in the poke test. What do you think?
