Part 1 – The Tools
A quick primer on the tools you’ll need if you want to start tying deer hair bugs for bass, pike and other predators. This video covers thread, essential tools and some optional extras. GSP Thread, heavy duty scissors, double edged razor blades, hair packers, leg pullers hair stackers, hot tip and the bend-a-blade.
Created by Hans Weilenmann, and inspired by Clark Reid’s “Clark’s Cicada“, the C-13, or Cicada 13, is a simple cicada pattern that has the characteristics to imitate this insect. It combines the the typical plop when it lands with good buoyancy provided by the deer hair.
Does the idea of using a Mop Fly offend you? Well, then perhaps you can get behind the way that Tim Flagler of Tightline Productions uses that mop material to create a cool-looking dry fly. Tim’s Mop Hopper (how could he resist calling it the Mopper?)
GFA stands for “General Foam Attractor”. The GFA Hopper pattern was created by Walter Wiese out of Parks Fly Shop in Gardiner, Montana. This pattern is easy to tie and looks and fishes well in all colours.
Materials
- Hook: Dai Riki 280, size 6-14.

“Life Matters” – ABC Radio National, Monday 13 August 2018
What can spending time in nature in search of wild trout teach us about ourselves, our mates and our relationship with the environment?
Master fly-fisher, scientist and storyteller Greg French talks about his passion for the wild, the friendships he has made through fishing and how concern for the environment is the driving force in his life.
