All our DVD programs are shot from the tyer's point of view from 3 camera angles. We use a tiny camera only inches from 3 camera angles. We use a tiny camera only inches away from the fly as it is being tied, capturing minute details.

Shane Stalcup flies are used by fishermen throughout the world. A 20-year veteran tying flies, Shane regularly provides articles to Fly Tier magazine and Fly Fishing & Tying Journal, as well as to other fly fishing publications. In addition to his magazine work he has produced 16 successful videos. Shane is regularly invited to demonstrate his skills at fly tying seminars throughout the United States and foreign countries.
All these patterns are tied and shown from the tier's point of view using an extreme close-up camera, making this DVD very clear and easy to follow. Shows the tying from the tyer's point of view. The viewer always sees the most minute detail as Shane is tying.
One thing is for certain, anywhere you might find yourself fishing, a place in your box should always be available for midges. Home waters of most anglers are full of midges and Shane's new creations are knocking them dead!
He shows how some of the newer materials of today such as D-Rib, Ultra Wire, and Soft Hackles can be used to tie his successful flies or to creat your own patterns.
These patterns can be used anywhere that midges are found. Also, even though the patterns demonstrated do not show bead heads, by all means try some along with the newer plastic shiny ones. This makes them ideal for trailing behind a more highly visible fly.

* Wire Midge Emerger
