Thanks for viewing this YouTube fly fishing tutorial, and I encourage you to view my additional videos at the following website: http://www.troutandfeather.com

In this fly tying tutorial, I selected one of the most popular flies in the country: John Barr's Copper John. This heavily weighted pattern is distinctive in its look; the Ultra Wire abdomen and epoxy over the wing case set this apart from other flies. When tying, I did vary the epoxy by utilizing a UV glass glue instead, plus I also encourage others to create their own variations of the Copper John.

Featured in this tutorial are S402 hooks by Allen Fly Fishing (http://www.allenflyfishing.com/s402-s... these hooks, and their barbless counterparts the S402BL, are ideal for this pattern in that they're the 2xl shank that John recommends.
