Cheech's Periodical Cicada | Fly Tying Tutorial
In this fly tying tutorial Cheech ties the Periodical Cicada!
Every year, if you start watching the news around February, you may see that a giant invasion of cicadas is coming… THAT is how you know to prepare a box of cicadas for the summer. Some places get cicadas yearly, but those aren’t the cicadas we’re talking about. We’re talking the big gnarlies that only come out every few years and every smallmouth, carp, and trout, looking up for protein.
This design can be modified in shape or color to match the cicadas that hatch near you. They are commonly black and orange, but can be green, tan, or something else…. Anyway. Watch the news, and tie giant flies!

    Eh..... I'm not sure about those office labels. Seems like an easy way to lose one and watch all of the data fall into a cloud of mystery all over again. Maybe not if you use special bags to organize your reels but a tons of us just throw it in the backseat with the rest of our junk before an outing. I really think the info should be detailed somewhere 'on' the reel itself, or on the line itself. But in this case it also needs to hold up to the elements. I'm thinking oil pen? I wish there was a better way.

    One of your best tutorials. Having all the bobbins together really helps when comparing them. I've had turkey flats since I read AK Best's books, but rarely use them. Now I'll give them a try. Finally, the marabou wrapping sequence is a great help also. Do you ever use a dubbing loop to reinforce a marabou wrap?

    • @robgrubb420
      @robgrubb420 3 дні тому

      no, when fishing below an indicator you want to have a flat section of leader non tapered. tapered leader will have a bow in it and won't be hanging directly below the indicator at the depth that you should have set.

    • @Lanceeganflyfishing

      I haven’t used a center lock for this purpose, so I cannot confirm that they work as a slip indicator. I’ve heard they can be used as a slip indicator but haven’t yet tried them as such.

    • @robgrubb420
      @robgrubb420 3 дні тому

      no big channel is for thicker part of higher test leaders. the thinner slot is for thinner leader. the airlocks are not a breakaway style indicator, phil rowley makes a specific breakaway indicator, but you can modify a trout magnet one to get the same effect.

    Tiemco used to sell a Master's Bobbin that was wonderful, with different interchangeable tubes. Unfortunately, that one is no longer available (but if you find one on eBay, buy it). I'm one of the few (based on what I see online) who likes the Tiemco magnetic bobbin; once you figure out how to adjust the tension, it works great, but it isn't symmetrical, so if you're spinning the bobbin regularly, it's slightly awkward. And Kopter makes a bobbin specifically for split thread tying, which I also like a lot, but only when I'm working with that technique. This is a terrific video, but the whole 15 minutes (and more) could have been on bobbins.

  • @FlyTyer1948
    @FlyTyer1948 7 днів тому

    If you have bobbin holders that don’t spin well because they are too light, you can add weight inside the spool. I use those flat twist-on weights but thick lead wire will work. Wrap the wire or twist-on in a spiral just a bit thinner than the width of bobbin hole, then insert it & center it within the hole. After threading & mounting the bobbin in the holder, tie the thread on a hook & give it some test spins to check that it’s balanced. The turkey flat use for wings, especially parachutes, is pretty nifty. (Psst, Cheech - you are out of stock on cream/white turkey flats.) The way you demonstrated tying in the marabou is exactly how Jack Gartside taught his students how to tie in the marabou for his Soft Hackle Streamer. Nice!

    • @FlyFishFood
