Western Coachman - 4k Fly Tying Video - McFly Angler Tying Session

The Royal Coachman is a dry fly I have fished before, and absolutely love! I also love the Royal Wulff as well which is very similar with a different tail. The Western Coachman though is a fly im used to seeing as a wet fly, or I guess maybe its an emerger. But a customer of mine asked me to tie it as a dry fly, so here is my attempt at that. They are beautiful flies, especially with the golden pheasant tails. That is some trippy cool looking birds with awesome feathers!

Anyway I tied up 24 of these for this gentleman who I am hoping will catch some really nice fish with them. I tied them in size 12 and 14, which both came out good. Being the first time ive tied these though, I hope I did a good enough job. For anyone watching who has tied these before, please let me know if I did anything wrong. The head and hackle on this particular one didn't come out perfect, the others did much better. Just I can't chew gum and walk, so tying and talking and filming together usually make for a bumble of a tie.

So here is the list of materials for this particular fly. Like I said I like using Risen hooks when I tie myself, so please go check them out. Their barbless dry fly hooks are awesome! https://www.risenfly.com/collections/...
