I was taught to tie …
I was convinced it had wings and a tail which made it float.
I was taught to tie a greenwells glory with green silk, olive tail, yellow wire for ribs, starling feather wings and hackle.?
But i suppose it will work like the one you done david

Hi andrewgmurphy
Thanks for your comments. Tying fishing flies is like riding a bike, once you get the hang of it ,it just gets easier. When you get to tie off stroke the hackle fibres back and hold them down whilst you do the double half hitch. Dont forget to varnish.
Happy Fishing

Cheers for the …
Cheers for the tying tips dave. Started tying yesterday when I got my vice and have been using a book to show me some patterns. Been watching your videos as a reference when the book fails me. I wish I could half hitch as quickly as that but it keeps getting trapped up in the hackle. Keep up the good work!

OK Dave i agree …
OK Dave i agree with you on spiders being better than wings. Do you have any vids showing feather winging techniques, cant find any on here. But i can understand that trad winging techniques are not used very often these days.

Hi door2yourheart
Thanks for your comment. Yes the early patterns had waxed primrose silk to make it olive.Wilf Proud called the spider pattern,wing or no wing, ‘Greenwells glory’ 60 years ago and that is how it will be with me,until they pack my vice in the casket with me ( in the next 60yrs.) Spider patterns catch more fish than winged versions.

Your videos are …
Your videos are very clear and concise. But that fly is more of a Greenwell spider than the full Glory. Also i am sure you know, the original had a body of dirty, waxed yellow tying silk, plus hen blackbird as wings, (nowadays it is dyed starling substitute). This is not meant as a criticism, more as extra info. That fly would defo catch trout!
