I really like how you explain what you are doing, and then proceed to do it! That really looks like a wonderful fly!
What size eyes are you using?
I've caught just about everything I've ever been able to catch on misc. lures using spinning gear on this one fly salt or fresh water. Vary the size weight for depth and or current and works anywhere
Nice
Tim great tips for tying the Clouser! Do you do any with marabou for freshwater? Thanks again for sharing!👍
Your videos always make me think of ‘How it’s Made’ fly tying edition, great quality.
I was invited to fish a lake in Texas known for large basketball-belly largemouths. I had no idea what fly to take but I brought a few chartreuse clausers and that's all I fished. We anchored the boat and I hooked one about 20 feet off the bow. Just my luck the boat battery died and we couldn't chase the fish. It ran and ran and I palmed like crazy but it never slowed down. You could tell by the tail shake it was a huge fish. It got to the end of my backing and just snapped it right off. The battery never started and we had to paddle the bass boat nonstop against a stiff breeze 2 miles back to the ramp. We got there around midnight but I'd gladly go back to Lake Ivie with a few clauser minnows and a spare battery.
Why do you put the eyes so close to the eye of the hook? I've watched Bob Clouser tie his minnow and he puts the eyes at least 1/3 of the hook length back from the front of the hook.
Что поменялось в этой морской мухе кроме цвета крючка?
My favorite fly hands down. I use them year round for hybrid striped bass and land locked true striped bass here on a 9 wt. They ALWAYS produce and like you said you can crank out a bunch of them quickly.
Do I use a size 1 or 1/0
How important do you think the color of the eyes is? You have inspired me to whip a few of these up as they have always vexed me to a degree but this video has given me something to think about. I have a good deal of bead chain that I could use for eyes. Do you think that will be sufficient?
This is a really well-done video. Perfection achieved. Bravo!! ………..and, Thanks.
I have an alt built on this that has produced consistently, add a second bead,at top of hook curve, whip the fibre behind, gives it a "body" adding length to the fibre is a must though.
another 10/10
My favorite fly..in any size, #10, size of a quarter to 2/0, 6 inches long. Using 3wt up to 8wt rods. Unbelievable how many different fish I’ve caught with it. Thanks Tim! 👍👌🎣
whereabouts in canada are you going? if its in new brunswick i can put you on some HUGE smallies!
Nice one Tim, a favorite with the smallmouth bass here in Canada. Red and white is also popular with the fish as is olive and yellow in the lakes where perch are the main forage. Good luck and decent weather on your trip!
What is it that makes this a "freshwater" clouser and what change would make it "saltwater"? Thanks.
Awesome video, I’ve had great success in SE Ohio this year fishing strictly Clouser minnows, I have noticed that when I use hard as nails and zap a gap in combination there seems to be some reaction that leads to a white substrate on the back of the head near the dumbbell eyes, have you noticed this at all using Z-ment?
Your superior techniques, Tim, are admired; and I really appreciate your clear, concise instructions. Another well done video; many thanks.
Thanks for another great video! I mean no disrespect by this but the head on that fly looks a lot bulkier than on your previous clouser videos. Do you find that with the extra weight from a larger head, it still consistently rides upright or do you get more rolling action from the fly?
I literally watched one of your older videos on this to tie up the same thing in this thumbnail!
As usual, I learned some very helpful tips.
There's a lot to be said for a clouser. I recently tied some marked up like a brook trout. Orange belly, slight clump of white under a olive wing. With 2 strands of orange crystal flash on each side. This color scheme works well on crappie and smallmouth. I prefer a size 10 tmc 5262 hook with either mini lead dumbell eyes or large beadchain eyes and I cut my bucktail to 1 1/2 hookshank in length. So basically it's a panfish sized clouser, but smallmouth don't seem to mind
That's my go too fly awesome video
