On this week’s Tying Tuesday, we’ve received three nice patterns that vary from a traditional streamer to a information’s new dry-dropper creation. We kick issues off with Jack Arnot demonstrating the right way to tie his New Age Caddis, a buggy, high-floating dry fly that can droop a nymph effectively even in quick water. It appears like it would draw strikes from upward-looking trout, as effectively. Subsequent is an excellent easy nymph from Swedish tier Andre (a.ok.a. fliesbyaspeen). The result’s a shimmery nymph that can get to the underside shortly. Lastly, we have now a streamer from simply over the border from the place I reside. Lew Oatman’s Lower Lips is a chic, old-school featherwing streamer that’s been catching trout for many years. Andy Andrews exhibits us the right way to tie the recipe from my pal Mike Valla’s guide The Founding Flies.
