In this fly tying video Paul Monaghan is showing you how to tie a shank variant of the Beast Fleye made famous by Bob Popovics. Paul ties some awesome streamers, so you may want to give his Instagram a follow as well. You can find it here: https://www.instagram.com/paul.mono.monaghan/
From Paul Monaghan:
“Tying the Bob Popovics Beast Fleye takes a bit of practice to select the correct bucktail, taper and length, but don’t let that put you off tying this great moving fly. Plus you don’t need the longest bucktail. Tying them on shanks as Bob does too, makes the tying process quicker and easier. It won’t be the most exciting tutorial to view as we repeat steps, but this is a tutorial so edits are light to ensure I don’t skip important information. Don’t rely on Youtube to tie flies all the time, go buy Bob’s book ‘Fleye Design’.”
