With 40 years in fly fishing and fly tying, I have been most fortunate in being able to ‘learn on the job’ and develop many good and productive fishing flies.The videos which I record at home are edited by me and I very much hope you enjoy them. If you do, then I would encourage you to subscribe and you will be kept up to date as and when each new video is posted. Needless to say, all this takes time and quite a bit of high tech equipment to produce to the high standards which I aim to achieve which leads me nicely onto introducing my first official sponsor, Fulling Mill Ltd. Fulling Mill are based in the UK and are one of the leading names when it comes to producing world class fishing flies on a commercial scale. With access to their excellent range of tying materials as well as their much appreciated sponsorship, I look forward to doing more of what I do best and to continuing my work in fly tying and as well Fly Fishing on my local waters.

What Fly Would You Like to See Me Tie Next? 🎣

Hi Everyone,

Over the years, I've tied and filmed hundreds of different fly patterns, from traditional favourites to modern designs, but there's always something new to learn and share.

So, I thought I'd ask you all a question.

Is there a fly you'd like to see me tie that I haven't featured on my channel before?

It could be an old traditional pattern, a forgotten fly, something from your part of the world, as long as I have the materials then I will look at giving it a go..

Perhaps there's a fly tying technique you'd like me to demonstrate, a material you're unsure how to use, or simply something you'd like me to explain in a little more detail.

I'm always interested in discovering different methods, materials and patterns, especially those that have a bit of history or a story behind them.

Leave your suggestions in the comments below. I'd love to hear your ideas, and hopefully we can find a few interesting patterns and techniques to share in future videos.

After all, no matter how many years we've been tying flies, there's always something new to learn.

A huge thank you, as always, for your continued support.

All the very best,
Davie McPhail

Five years ago I received my YouTube Silver Creator Award, and it still feels like an amazing milestone to have reached. I honestly couldn't have done it without all of your support over the years, so thank you to everyone who has watched, subscribed, commented, and shared the videos.
If you haven't subscribed yet, I'd really appreciate it if you did. It helps the channel continue to grow and means I can keep bringing you more fly tying and fly fishing videos.
Thank you once again for being part of the journey.
All the very best,
Davie
