I tie a similar fly to this is a larger size with a dubbing head and dumbbell eyes. Works great!

Hello, I always watch your videos, they are great, as well as the professional description of tying. I tie different variations depending on the possibility and availability of materials. Do you have a description of the materials and other streamers you showed there somewhere? How does the black one work for you? It looks a lot blue to me which multiplies even more in water and it shines like a mirror... How do they work, for example, on a Jig or a tungsten head? Your videos fascinate me. Thank you, greetings from Slovakia, (eu)

Thanks!! You can tie these with tungsten, or cones! I'm glad you enjoy my videos!

I really like the use of polar chenille here to simplify the tying process! The overall Barely/Laser Legal platform is money, but tying all the stacks in the originals gets tedious.

Thanks and that's exactly why I did it. The color combinations are endless and the polar chenille really comes to life in the water giving additional movement! This has become my go to fly!

I'm healthy, I'm from Slovakia, it took a while to get these materials abroad, but I caught a nice rainbow on my first fishing trip, when my weapons were unsuccessful. My wife at home laughs at me that they are patterns for a Christmas tree, but I only understood what it could do after soaking. here, the big river is still climbing all year round now, it's hard to find a pattern. What combinations do you still use? How is the body on the black pattern made? Thank you for the inspiration, good luck.

So happy to hear from you. I use many different color combinations. I understand why your wife thinks the flies look funny, my wife says the same. For black, I would keep it simple and use black Marabou and a black body. I use this fly in many other color combinations as well. Check out my Instagram page for other color combinations!

As always great stuff, what colors of materials do you use to tie this in a tan version? That you showed it on the video. Thanks

What streamer would you try first in a crystal clear, shallow stream for smallmouth? 2-3 feet average with holes around 5 feet.

I would tie up a couple colors of the crystal light. I probably would not put a tungsten bead on it, I would use brass. As far as colors I would have one that matches the color of the bottom and then Olive, tan, black.

@@TroutTornado I just tied it and it came out really nice. Hopefully I'll get to try it this weekend. It looks like the basic difference between this fly vs the copper top and marabou laser is that you use polar chenille instead of laser dub. This version seems easier to tie, do you think it works as well as the other two? Thanks!

Both have their place and I use each equally! Both have caught 100’s of trout, smallmouth and walleye, etc. All that said, if I had to choose one based on the tying videos, it would be the Copper Top!

I noticed that the crystal lite has marabou on top while the copper top has the marabou on the bottom. Is there a reason for this?
@TroutTornado

They really are interchangeable, however the laser dub definitely is stronger and will last longer on a fly. But the Marabou has incredible action that can’t be replicated by synthetic. Ultimately it’s tyers choice and whether you’re looking for a particular color or action. Hope that helps you out.
