Davy McPhail Flytying on YouTube
« on: March 09, 2008, 07:44:04 PM »
For those of you who are looking to do something with the mass of fur & feather that we seem to amass, I came across this on YouTube recently.

http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=PeatyMann&p=r

Some nice modern UK patterns, some using some of the more recent materials - great little hints & tips as Davy ties, plus the videos are great quality....you'd be right to think I've been impressed with these - particularly as I nearly bought one of Davy's DVDs quite recently, & now don't really need to spend the brass. Thanks Davy....

Some masterful tying there. The classic salmon flies are a work of art- some of them must utilise in excess of 50 parts. Strictly for the most patient tyer!

I suppose I maybe should have posted this in the Websites section, sorry about that.

Although I've no real interest in salmon fishing, I've always admired the skills involved in tying the "classic" flies, ever since my early teenage days as a member of the Cloughton Club - the weigh-in & meetings were held in the Red Lion at Cloughton (still are) which at the time, very early '70s, was run by a guy called Tony Hetherington, who was presumably into salmon fishing/ salmon fly tying - there were framed fully dressed flies on the wall in the pub - miniature works of art!! Wish I had a fraction of the talent (& patience!!). Wonder what happened to them?
