Hoffmans extended mayfly quill body

I love Markus Hoffman’s fly tying videos. They just put me in the mood to tie and the music he uses gives me a great vibe. Here is the information Markus gave with this video.

This way of making an extended body is useful for any extended bodies. Airfilled and transparent if you want. The first one I made was on a hatching caddis, and only becuase I was triggered to do it by the French flytyer Alexandre Bonnet. This is a very easy way to create a realistic body, and the uv flex is durable enough to catch the fish of your dreams on! Tight lines!
