Tying
and Fishing the Dave Whitlock Originals: Fly tying
video series by Dave Whitlock
This
unique master series of videos by Dave covers every
aspect the fly tyer and fly fisher needs to know to
duplicate and fish his most popular original flies.
Each tape format includes the history of the fly design,
how to choose the best materials and step by step instructions
on how to tie it. Then Dave goes on stream to show you
how he fishes the design. This collection has a dual
value: first you'll learn all about tying Dave's original
designs with his unique methods and you'll also have
a priceless record of one of our most creative fly tyers.

Hopper is, internationally, the most popular hopper
fly on the market today. The Whit Hopper is another
very effective hopper design.

B)
Volume 2 - Whitlock's Matuka Sculpin.

Dave
designed this beautiful streamer fly to catch large
trout. His personal best brown of 22 3/4 pounds and
rainbow of 15 pounds were both taken on it.

C)
Volume 3 - Red Fox Squirrel Nymph.
(100 minutes)
If
I could only have one nymph to fish trout and panfish
with the rest of my life, it would be an easy choice
- my Red Fox Squirrel Nymph." This tape describes
how to tie it and three other versions that further
expand its versatility and effectiveness.

D)
Volume 4 - Whitlock's Sheep Minnow Series.
(120 minutes)
The best top-to-bottom minnow series design I've
ever used." Three density designs and specific
minnow species patterns allow you to catch nearly every
minnow eating species of game fish that swim including
trout, bass, sunfish, pike, walleye, stripers, tarpon,
snook, red fish, salmon, etc.

D)
Volume 5 - Whitlock's NearNuff Crayfish and NearNuff Sculpin Series.
(120 minutes)
Dave created the NearNuff flies as a more simple tie and more suggestive imitation of crayfish and sculpin. They have become two of Dave's favorite and most productive flies.
