How to tie nylon thread Videos

50, 100 and 200 probably refers to Denier, diameter of a thread. Most flosses, come in diameters like 600 Denier. One can get things like the Kevlar floss mentioned, down around 300 Denier. The 200 Denier, is actually a little bit like a thread - but a thread where you want to build up some bulk, while not having to burn through half a spool of thinner thread to get up the bulk, build up profiles to the body and so on. The classic thread diameters most in world of fly tying will be familiar with are the 140 and 70, where 70 Denier is just too thin, and weak for a lot of fishers who don't need to go down into the size 18's and smaller. The 10X, the Austrian Gel spun mentioned from Roman Moser, is probably down beneath the 70 Denier diameter, and that's most likely where the fifty, in the 50, 100 and 200 comes in. You can see, that in Gel spun, there'r working for whatever reason to a 50 and 100 Denier as standard threads, and probably can do so because of inherent strength of product. Mr Galloup is right, its a different way to tie flies for sure. 70 and 140 in the nylon world made sense, because for two different types of fishermen - dry fishers, and wet fishers - given normal hook sizes etc, those were smallest diameters that still had enough strength to be usable. But lots of wet fishers trying to work with 70 Denier on sizes 10 and 8 hooks, would be major annoyed, given amount of breaks to thread experienced. But for 12, 14, 16 etc the 70 Denier was unavoidable.

Ok.... so how do you undo it? 

How much are your rackets?

You need to tell us what you are using.

Where is the narative??? I want information on what to use

PERFECT!

Nice video. I'm rather new to this Hobby. What type of plastic rod are you using to burn to make eyes? Thanks for sharing this.

excelente! gracias!

buena imitacion

Fantastic!

Hello Ruben. Thank you for sharing this video. It was really captivating to watch you turn a hook into a fly! I am just now getting into fly fishing (Still looking to buy my first rod/reel) and came across your video which was wonderful. I'm not sure if I'll every reach the stage of making my own flies, but after watching your craftsmanship, I can really appreciate the work that goes into making one. Thanks again!

I love Beethoven, but please remove the music background... it does not help

hello Dave. Please, an alternative material for making the back in a caddis, are there?

Been a fan for years. Watch a lot of your videos. I'm just curious. What camera do you use? Any special lighting? Or is that trade secret stuff?

You're one bad dude. at the end of this. I just smiled.

Davie, have you ever tied the Paul Young "Strawman Nymph"? I'd like very much to see how the deer hair is spun. Thank you, Steven B

Great fly Davie, but what kind of yarn is that exactly?

Hi Davie. Is there a good substitute for foil lead wrap, maybe like kitchen foil?

Happy new year Davie love your videos
