Fly tying

The Fly-Tying is the artificial replicating fish food organisms, such as insects, crustaceans, small fish, etc. with the help of artificial and natural materials. It is wrapped with a yarn material such as chicken feathers around a fish hook. The bait fly so produced are mainly used when fly fishing.

Fly fishermen tie their own flies, to get fängigere lure flies and to keep you busy even during the closed season effectively and productively with their passion.

Reasons for fly tying

The fly fisherman who works intensively with his passion are not enough tickets purchased. For the requirements for fish at different waters are too specific. Although trade offers a myriad of fishing flies on, but change over time, individual components on the fly. Often all it takes is a different compilation of the materials used, no more to achieve the best result.

Required Equipment

The most important part of fly tying is the vise. Its mission is to securely hold the hook. A further object is the ability to let the hooks rotate to tie flies easier or to consider them without problems from all sides on many bandage sticks. The hooks required for fly tying are mostly special hooks that are matched to the binding fly pattern. From hook size 26 up to 9/ 0, all sizes are represented, especially for dry flies are needed very thin wiry hooks.

The binder thread is typically a Polyfilament on a bobbin, ie it consists of a plurality of the very finest fibers which are not twisted, but are parallel to each other. This carries the binding yarn on the hook, not so much on, you thereby saving weight and the silhouette is slim, if desired.

The spool with the binding thread is taken up by a yarn holder ( bobbin ). Its task is to facilitate the winds around the yarn around the hook and hold the thread when binding to voltage. A pair of scissors is an essential tool required for processing the binding materials such as Feathers, animal hair and synthetic materials. Is not absolutely necessary, but very helpful a head node Binder ( Whip finisher ). With this, the binding thread is wound clean the close of the binding process and concealed at the same time.

A Dubbing and a Dubbingtwister are helpful in the processing of Fellflusen.
