Dear Davie, I have fly fished all my life (now 63). I want to say that your fly tying tutorials have inspired me greatly. I love your clear, simple instructions and the simple yet highly effective patterns you create. Sincere thanks from South Australia. Danny

Hi Davie!! Letting you know that this week I finished fishing in the North Carolina in the Smokey Mountains! I tied the olive version and it was dynamite!!! I saw fish rising….put on the Dynamite harry and the gorgeous Brookies loved the pattern! Nothing like catching trout on a Fly, much patience casting exact location of rise, Boom caught 3. Thank you, I will be in on this monthly draw, would love the box, if not, I will be tying some for my box, I also gave away some spares to other fisherman on the river!

Thanks for introducing me to this style of fly Davie, I've tied some up in a few variations and I have to say they've been great, very effective and unlike a lot of my dry flies they just keep on floating! 😅 Cheers!

I really like this pattern. Quick tie and still looks great. Going to tie a lot of those for next season. I have been a fly fisher for many years but only started dry fly fishing this summer. Decided to put a regular fly line on my euro nymphing rod so I could use it when I see rises. I have to say, never thought my Sage esn 10' 3 weight would be so versatile.

The Dynamite Harry tied in rusty brown and darker brown would probably work quite well for the red spinner and its dun here in Tassie. Make sure you're well stocked with the Pot Scrubber nymph too. The mayfly season should be starting soon. I can send the nymph recipe if needed.

@@johnshand6176 Wigram’s Brown (Pot Scrubber) Nymph Developed in Tasmania to imitate the nymphs of red spinners. HOOK: Size 10 (lakes) or 12 down-eye (rivers, shallow backwaters, dawn patrol) THREAD: Brown TAIL: Three or more brown cock hackle fibres RIBBING: Copper strip obtained from a copper pot scrubber (scourer) BODY & THORAX: Brown seal’s fur mixed equally with cut-up dark chocolate wool* *The original blend produced a red brown colour, fiery brown seal fur works very well. The tail is usually about the same length as the body. The abdomen is two thirds of the body and tapered. The thorax has roughly the same amount of fur dubbing as the abdomen and should be twice as thick as the abdomen. Finish with a well-formed head. A wing case of pheasant tail can be added, purely for aesthetics. If you can’t find a copper pot scourer, got to Steve’s Flyshop in Methven and order Sybai flat wire copper - wide medium (~0.4 mm wide). If you can, check FlyLife issue 104 page 63. Good luck.

That would be a great box to win. Still I want "the Rodant" and my DH's arent too bad. I love the Irish Gnat. Looks like a Green Drake spinner what we call a Coffin Fly. Bet that would fish great late of the evening and be vissible too. Thanks. The lessons are great but these sessions with your thoughts, ideas, and approaches are wonderful. Thanks so much!!

Hi Davie, when I saw your demo on the olive DH, I tied up a couple and caught a lovely 15inch Brownie from the thinnest of water during the long dry spell. It is spate water and was almost on its bones, but for whatever reason and with no visible hatch, the fish took a fancy to it. The numerous variations are brilliant. Many thanks

Very enjoyable to see and thanks. I'd never heard of this pattern till I saw one of your clips. it's a great natural abstract looking fly and it looks really ready for work. I'd like to try my hand with the pattern. A real innovation by the looks of things. :-)

Wonderful Fly with endless possibilities in size and colors. I viewed one of your videos a few months ago on DH's and started tying them to match my local river needs. Have always been a huge Wulff line of flies for the combination possibilities and their ability to float like a cork!!! Dynamite Harry,s catching up as go to Fly 🪰

So looking at your box of dynamite Harry's you really don't need any other Dry Mayfly patterns. You may want a few larger sizes to cover large Mayflies, but what else would you need? Same goes for Caddis. Who is the inventor of this pattern? It is a pretty great style of fly.

Not to argue at all, but...I prefer natural materials when I can use them. So, do you think I could use dyed deer hair in place of the polypro? Only one way to know, I suppose! 😄 Thanks, Davie.

If you Google it, the fly was created by Jörgen Danielsson, who named it after a cartoon character. Hope this helps.
