Air-Lock Strike Indicators

In this episode of "From Vise to Water," I share my thoughts on Air-Lock strike indicators. These have found a spot in my vest over the last few years, and in this video, I share my favorite sizes, colors, and water types in which to use them.

I want to take a moment and thank all of YOU for the continued support of my videos, helping me now achieve 2.5 million video views! That's seriously crazy, and trust me, your encouragement means the world. Here's to 2019 and beyond...

Cammisa's Stealth Mode jig nymph

Cammisa's Stealth Mode is a jig nymph that pays homage to tinsel-bodied flies with its use of UNI-Mylar. Though that material has "stealth" tendencies, everything completely changes with the rear hot spot...and fish don't seem to mind. Learn more about this pattern in the video.

Flies: To tie or to buy???

It's obvious that I'm a fly tier, but there are instances in which I buy flies. I discuss one of my favorite "flies to buy" and then ask all of you to share your thoughts on this topic.

Furimsky's Bugskin Shinetail

Micro Mop Fly

If you haven't had enough fun with the original, here comes the Micro Mop! This pattern has an application for many situations, especially those discussed in the video. With many variations and tying methods available for this one, the Micro Mop allows for some creativity, plus it's an overall quick tie.

Jake's Improved Zebra Midge

In this fly tying tutorial, we're joined by guest tier Jake Adamerovich from Competitive Angler. Watch as Jake ties this killer variation, Jake's Improved Zebra Midge.

Foam Beetle

In this fly tying video, I tie a simple version of the Foam Beetle. This is an easy-to-tie pattern that lends well to variations, but I also wanted to share how I use a foam cutter to tie multiple sizes. Finally, be sure to catch the end of the tying for a little hint, ha ha! ;-)

Utah Killer Bug

In this "Two Minute Fly Tying" video, I share the modern version of the Utah Killer Bug that I fish. This pattern is incredibly simple to tie, and I give a few tips that may help you out. Thanks to my friend, Tom Glass, for sharing this one with me. Also, shout-outs to Frank Sawyer and the Tenkara Guides! ;-)

Eggstasy Egg Pattern

In this "Two Minute Fly Tying" tutorial, I share the Eggstasy Egg fly, a simple pattern that fish can't resist under certain conditions. In this video, I share the base pattern, but remember that there are multiple variations out there of this fly.

Cammisa's CDC Green Caddis

If you fish in waterways known for caddisflies, here's a pattern that belongs in your fly box! This caddis is one that I fish to imitate the Grannom Caddis (also known in areas as the Mother's Day Caddis). This is a "new and improved" version of a previous video, and I'm sure you'll enjoy this one.

Stonfo Airone Travel Vise

In this fly tying video, I discuss a new travel vise, the Stonfo Airone.  The vise is made of quality components and can definitely hold a variety of hook sizes, as I show in the video.  

E.P.'s Articulated Streamer

It's not too late to learn about and try articulated streamers!  In this video, I share my "base" pattern, which you can modify with many options.  Keeping it simple is the key to me, and most importantly, be sure to check your connections before fishing!

Solarez Ultra Thin Bone Dry UV Resin

There are lots of options for fly tiers when it comes to UV resins, and I want to share one that I've been using recently, Solarez Ultra Thin Bone Dry.  In this video, I discuss some of its benefits and also show the UV resin in use.

This video features Mr. Kevin Compton of Performance Flies. Kevin is an advanced tier and it shows in this one!

Featured in this video is the "new and improved" version of the Lightning Bug, slightly revised from my original video.  This is the version you'll now find me using, and I hope you enjoy some of the variations I share in the video.
