Tying Video: Galloup's Articulated Fat Head/heifer Groomer

[Brian Wise]

Hey Brian,

Would you be willing to tie a couple of those on small hooks, say 16 streamers, for Mill and BSC. Before I fly fished on the small wild creeks, I used to catch em on 1.5 Rapala minnows, trout or bluegill pattern. I would like to try quick stripping them and see what happens.

If not, no big deal.

I have often wondered how flies like these would do scaled down a lot for creeks like Mill, BSC, Crane, etc. Defenitely something to think about.

Brian, again, Love the new approach to the tying videos. I get to bored with the real time videos and yours are going fast enough to keep me interested

Now, if your taking requests, I'd like to see some full dressed classic atlantic salmon flies in this fashion, such as the green highlander...........

Maybe show some technics on marrying wings and tips on proper attachment of gut eyes that still allow for a good base of wing attachment.

It be nice to condense a 12 hour fly into about 10 minutes.

I once sat in front of Dr. Stack Scovial for 6 straight hours watching him tie one fly. It was pretty painful but very informative.

Thanks! I tell you what, you come down and tie a Full Dress and I will shoot video of it and throw it together. My Full Dress would probably be about as good as a 6 year olds.

You avoided the stinger this time, Grasshopper, that is good...soon it will be time for you to leave, and fish these flies...

I am slowly learning.....one of these days I will poke myself enough that I have perma-holes in my thumb and wont' have to worry about it.

Can't wait for the Barely Legal, the tying video by you that is...
