How to Tie Jerry French’s Skinny Hoh Fly

featured, Fly Patterns, Videos — By Kevin Hospodar on June 24, 2014 9:55 am

OPST’s newest fly tying video on how to Tie Jerry French’s Skinny Hoh fly. The Skinny Hoh is a slimmed-down version of Jerry French’s Dirty Hoh, a cross between an intruder and a string leech. It features composite loops, which Jerry uses to put multiple materials in a dubbing loop for a totally unique look and action. This video gives a great step by step instruction to the composite loop, as well as the twisted hitch, Jerry’s way of securing a hook to a rabbit strip so that it will never come loose or foul. see more at http://www.opskagit.com/

Being new to tying tube flies or shank flies; I thank you for the tips on dubbing loops and materials used.

One might hang oneself if the fly broke off after all that time at the vise .BJ

Thank you for all your time demonstrating this pattern Jerry. Those of us who use similar flies and classics don’t worry about losing them do we?

I make a lot of flies that require 20 – 30 minutes to complete and really appreciate your attention to detail.

I’ll give this demo a 5 Star Rating because you took the effort to do it!
