From Jay Nicholas:
“This video features a conversation with my friend Rob Perkin as he ties one of his Intruder flies – this one emphasizing purple and pink. The video is rather long and rambling but if you have it running in the background while you are tying flies there may be some fun conversation and discussion of alternative thoughts regarding tying steelhead Ingruders. JN”
NOTE: Actually, I completely agree with this. There is talking going on, but you can learn a lot by listening to conversation like this while tying. Also, this is a sweet Intruder style fly he ties in this video, so it is worth the watch and listen.

From Jay Nicholas:
“This is a 33-minute video in which I discuss the thinking and techniques of tying Intruders. This is hopefully the first of several that will follow.”

From Mad River Outfitters:
“The Buck Nasty is an effective fly that has served our guides well throughout the Great Lakes region. Ryan Ratliff walks us through a fly that marries both the Bob Popovic’s hollow fly pattern with Jerry French/Ed Ward intruder style fly.”
