These SKILL BUILDER videos will help you along your Fly Tying Journey! We choose three tips per week and post them on Fridays!

In this video we show you why I always cut the corner off my dubbing bags - Hint - It's to make your dubbing loops EXTRA clean. The clump dub technique is often overlooked, but it can make a unique looking leech or clean collar on the front of a fly. A patch of squirrel is a great option to make soft hackles and we're going to show you how make a super clean collar out of it.
