We gave this fly two videos. Part one shows how to tie the rear tube of the Tandem Tube style fly and part one finishes the relatively quick and easy tube fly portion. Silvey’s Tandem Tube fly and related patterns have been very effective flies on our local waters and beyond. The fly has great action and excellent success in hook up to land ratio.
The final video is a little trick to add to your trailing hooks. Enjoy.
