Catskill Flies Photo Stream
The Catskills are the birthplace of fly fishing. Anglers from around the world travel here to be part of the history.

Does anyone harvest their own flank feathers or know someone who does? Being able to use feathers myself or my friends have harvested really adds another layer for me.

Thanks to someone I consider a new friend and I look to for fly fishing wisdom, I couldn’t wait to get home and read again “Fishing the Dry Fly as a Living Insect”, by Leonard Wright. A fascinating book that makes you think about insect behavior and through observation how wild trout respond to our flies and the emerging insects.

Reposted from ekulstacy This whitingfarms heritage hackle cape from Kelly Galloup galloupsslideinn may be my new favorite cape 🤩Tied on an old mustadfishing 98480 👌🏻
Quill Gordon tied on a size 12 vintage mustad 94840. Instead of using a blue dun hackle I used whitingfarms medium brown dun and really like the buggy effect it puts on this fly.

A fly I tied a couple days ago while working on my hackle tip wings and never got around to posting it.

More Catskill style dry fly magic from sethcavarretta . Everything else is fun to tie but Catskill style flies are where my heart is!
Something about this view is so satisfying to me.

This size 10 shows the fly with more respect, I’m still fishing those size 14!

The story tells that this was an original pattern by Walt Dette, created for the fly fisher Art Lee.

The Cooper Wet Fly Variant
Tied in Hand
Only one way to get better is to try, try and TRY again. Tied in hand again for a fun Sunday night. I used real Copper wire cause why not.

This is the other fly, the blue fly to the Cow Dung.
This is the second night that I have put the wrong wing on a fly. The ADHD is strong…hahaha. It should be the grey wing. I must say I do like the black wing. I just liked the look of them so here we are.

Just because I keep spelling the poor mans name incorrectly 😑 not me…Siri shh she listens but can’t read. Yup it’s to late.
2 more in the box 👍🏼!!! Sz14 wont tie them any smaller than that. They look like bug right?

Also, tying the fluttering caddis imitation as Leonard Wright describes is not as easy as one might think. I need lots of practice.

I have borrowed the second picture from the spinozarodco account.
I always wonder what the conversations were like when "they" would meet on the river or over a drink were like. I mean we only see the flies that lasted, you know they had failures or ones they didn’t share for one reason or the other. I have come to the humble conclusion that it probably was not much different than what we have, with the exception of time and books and a million flies tied by strangers 🤷🏻♂️. The wings are sparse with maybe just one wrap in front the wings, the head is a bit crowded and it still looks like a bug.
I have been looking at a lot of old flies and I have an opinion that I will be sharing soon. More to come on this topic. you have been warned hahah!!

50/50 on the water and everywhere else for that matter!!!
From a conversation over the weekend.
“ The Woman Flyfishers Club commissioned his fly in honor of Mable Ingalls, one of their earliest members. Van Put styled it in the classic Catskill manner, choosing a Monk body as suited to Mable’s panache and heritage as J.P. Morgan’s granddaughter”
From the Land of Little Rivers

Let’s tie the Humpy… yes did just do that. We have a Red Humpy, Humpy Yellow and a Bee Humpy🐝. I like to fish these for Brook Trout. After some early morning fishing the Trico hatch and then some mid morning Caddis and you still don’t want to go home, the suns up but it’s nice a cool with the start of fall in the air. Just after lunch the Humpy is the attractor fly I like to fish. 🤷🏻♂️
I also tied a Bee Humpy, well just Bee cause I felt like it. Sorry it’s late lol

I’ll say it again, it’s the good, the bad and the ugly. This fly has 2 of the 3, I’ll let you pick. I found a scrap of calf body, there is no white calf tail to be found for Kilometers (miles). Task completed one tied one posted. Now let’s see if I get a like from a regular that didn’t seem to approve of the fly in brown.
I tie to catch fish not people LMAO.. And yes the irony of that is not lost on me that this that this is a picture posted on social media looking for likes.
Enjoy your day everyone and be nice to each other.
