My Frank's Fighting Craw made it to Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlLNRyAcdqM
I was tying at the FFF Southern Council Conclave when this guy comes
up and asks to record me tying.
By the way, at the start, I had no idea where I was supposed to look
(as you can tell).

Way to go, Frank! <clapclapclap>

I'm glad Brenda made sure your hands and fingernails were clean. Great
woman, she.

Searching around Youtube, I found some great (and not so great) how
to's on fly tying. Pretty cool.

Hi Frank,

Well done! Nicely presented and well spoken... and a good fly too. What you
call a Crawfish, we call a Yabbee.

Rob.

Good stuff, Frank. Millions of people can make bugs, but presenting
it well on camera is a whole 'nother gig.

I'd say you did very well, both in terms of appearance and information. And
generally, you look into the camera, assuming it is front-center - you're
talking to the audience as if they camera is it. Hey, it could be a source of
side-income for you - for a coupla-hundred or so (or less), plus what you
already have (a computer) you could be producing instructional videos and
selling DVDs...

I was a "Command Briefer" in the Air Force. My job was to brief the
bigwigs on the latest and greatest. I always faced the folks I was
talking to, looked into their eyes to see if they were "getting it,"
then adjusted as necessary. This was my first time briefing to a
camera alone (I had been recorded before, but I still briefed to my
primary audience in front of me). I finally adjusted about 1/3rd of
the way through, but mercifully, the camera man had zoomed in on my
vise way before that.

Heh, that's a NEW shirt. Must be those Chinese monitors with the red
filters.

Good looking fly and nice presentation Frank.

When do you typically use this pattern, (stream, lake, species, etc...).
Seem it could be effective for both trout and spiny-ray species?

Thanks for sharing,
JT

Yes. I've used it in streams. Its good as a dead drift in riffles
and VERY good in "froggy water," i.e. slow, slack water near the
bank. I let it settle then twitch, settle... I use the exact same
technique in lakes along the shore. I prefer a sink tip line with it
and a short leader (1 meter/yard of straight mono).
I've caught carp, brown trout, large and small mouth bass, red eye,
walleye and European zander with it. Additionally, I change it out
(no claws and palmer a hackle through it) as a shrimp pattern. I had
great success with Pacific barracuda in the Yellow Sea.

That was a shirt...? I didn't wanna say anything, but I just sorta figured they
had some of those restaurant-sized vats of mint chocolate chip ice cream, and,
well, it's Frank...
