LOON OUTDOORS - Tying the Chubby Chernobyl

The other day, Loon Outdoors sent out an email blast that included several of their fly tying tutorial videos and the Chubby Chernobyl film took me back to April 2014 where I spent a few days with John Arnold of Headhunters Fly Shop.  

I remember getting into his drift boat on the first morning and John asking, "Do you want to catch a bunch of fish on nymphs deep or catch a few fish on big dry flies?"  The only right answer was a big foam and poly yarn wing Chubby and we sure had some fun days with big slurps in the soft water edges and even bigger bends on the Epic 686.



Visit the Loon Outdoors website for the Chubby Chernobyl tutorial and dive into their library of tying videos on their YouTube channel.

And, if you're up for it, take a trip down memory lane with this T.F.M. post on the trip to Craiglandia.
