Alright today we are tying a crazy Charlie is a SL 45 Gamagatsu SL 45 hook inside six. First we're gonna start our thread wrap halfway down the hook shank and we're gonna wrap halfway back up so really we're gonna be quarter of the way down the hook shank. I'm gonna put in a dumbbell eye do some cross wraps and we're gonna bring our thread all the way down to about the bend of the hook and I'm gonna grab some fishing line and I'm gonna tie in with a few wraps just to capture that onto the hook shank. I'm gonna grab some flash boos. This is saltwater size flash boos and I'm gonna capture that on. Then we're gonna wrap up the hook shank right up to where the eyes are and we're gonna wrap around our flash boos and come back up one more time and that gives a lot of pearl flash to this fly. Then we wanna just do a couple wraps to cinch it down. Make sure that's in tight and then we're gonna start on our line. So the lines a little tricky to get started. Fish and mine is just you know they're it's a very rigid material it doesn't want to bend it doesn't want to be manipulated. Kind of got to keep your finger now on it to get it started. Make sure it doesn't start coming down the hook shank in the direction you don't want it to go. So once in a while get too much space and you can just kind of push back with your finger now. Once you reach the eyes go ahead and capture that. Then we're gonna bring up the line across over the eyes again and then capture it one more time on this side. Cut off your access and then flip your hook. Next we're gonna tie in our synthetic fiber. I want to measure out your fiber a little past the hook. The bend of the hook is about a good length. Okay then you want to make sure and taper the end a bit. I'm not sure if you could have seen that. So one taper the end make sure it's not square like that. And get it looking a little more like shrimp head. You can see nice and tapered. Then you do want to square off the other end. So go ahead and square that off. Pinch it with your fingers and tie that into the end of the hook right by the eye. I'm gonna split that on either side of your hook and then cinch that down real good. Once that cinch down you want to grab Sharpie. I'm using a bronze color. You can use brown, pink, whatever color you so choose just be creative with it. You want a pool type and then mark each side. Listen bands. There we go. I'm gonna take my crystal flash material and pull out two strands. And I'm gonna double it on itself. Cut it and then double it again. I'm gonna attach that in about halfway down the ends of the flash and then double it on itself. And attach it. Then just go ahead and cover that up. Build up a small head. It'll need to be too big. And then you can whip finish. Now you can decide whether you want to epoxy the head. You can also just put some super glue. That will keep it together. But I do choose to epoxy. I'm gonna use this solar as and it works right. It's a UV curing epoxy. Just a small little dab of it. And this is the thin. This is the thin stuff. It's not the thick. Then you want to grab your bodkin and make sure it's evenly distributed around the hook shank. Let that sit for a minute. Spin it. Make sure it's covered evenly on both sides. It's nice and smooth. And then I'll start UV curing. Just a few seconds. And that's hard. There we go. That is the crazy Charlie.
