Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

I am anxiously awaiting that video - I can'r say I've ever tied anything smaller than 26, mostly because I never felt that fish would take anything smaller, but I admit also because my skill level just isn't there for it. I can hardly fathom tying a 32 of any type (tiemco, mustad, any type), much

Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

I tyed mine with 10/0 Gudebrod. Too bad they don't make any more. It was a finer thread than the 14/0 thread that I once had. This hook is real small, it will fit in the gape of the sx 32 you might find today. On Mon, 4/3/17, Pete Gramp

I also should have mentioned that the Veveeus?12/0 is still stronger then the Guedebrod 10/0. phxflytyer Phoenix,AZ "Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian." Henry Ford > On Apr 3,

I am sure that you have a much lighter touch then me. I am too heavy with my pressure and no matter how I try I still break the Guedebrod, even when I take it off the spools and use a regular bobbin? Sent from my iPad Thank You, Alan Di Somma Phoenix, AZ. Some mistakes are just too much fun

Can't wait to see the video, Don. I have a couple spools of the UNI-Caenis thread. Label says it is a 20 denier thread and is really fine. I've only ever tried tying with it a couple times and it is quite fragile. Cudos to you Don for tying at both extremes of the size scale. On 3 April 2017 at

I never really had any problem with the 10/0 breaking. I have not tried the Vee? thread. Tony On Mon, 4/3/17, Alan Di Somma wrote: Subject: Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making To: "VFB List"

Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

I started to "make" my own thread for flies smaller than #26. Picked out a few filaments from a piece of GSP thread, waxed, twisted and put it on a little spool. That was TRUE spiderweb... à la super strong. Using that on a video it would look like the fly was tying itself while you were just

When I fished the San Juan River in New Mexico a couple of years back I brought my tying stuff and tied some 28 and 30’s. I had Bennecci 16/0 and I liked it better then the Guedebrod 10/0 which I thought broke too easily. Never did like that Guedebrod. phxflytyer Phoenix,AZ "Any man who

A friend ties 32s with a special 30 denier gelspun he gets from somewhere across the pond. On Apr 3, 2017 11:12 AM, "Pacres" wrote: > Can't wait to see the video, Don. I have a couple spools of the UNI-Caenis > thread. Label says it is a 20 denier thread and is really fine.

Re: [VFB] #32 Mustad Royal Coachman Video in the making

I’m going to work on making the video more entertaining than a normal tutorial. That means a lot of clips of the materials and tools used, comparing them to normal. Then I’ll have section of the actual tie. Since the tie itself is not practical for most tiers, I would think entertainment is
