Tying Mikkelson's Epoxy Baitfish - False Albacore Flies

In this video I demonstrate how to tie the Epoxy Baitfish, developed by Glenn Mikkelson. A favorite by many Fly fishers in the north east come fall when bass and albies are blitzing off the beaches and jetties.

    I can't stop watching these videos. It is really odd how interesting it is to watch people tie flies. Gave you a follow... my new obsession.

    NRS waders! Leave relief zipper open after showing your buddies how cool you are. Mine dont leak otherwise, 3rd season. Mikkelson is all I fish most days. Works great on fluke down tha shore as well. Thanks for the blitz intro

    cool tye man great video keep em coming, can you do a tut showing how tie those Marauder flies you have on your site. also FYI the volume on the shots your shooting on green screen is pretty low compared to when your doing the VoiceOver in the middle of tying. try matching both volume levels otherwise great stuff bud

    I am trying to understand why the Flashabou is used to wrap the tan bucktail,,why not just tie it in with mono?
