Last week, I shared my Hollywood Hopper pattern with you. While a great pattern, many people love to throw a smaller sized hopper say in size 12 or 10. With that in mind, I tried to scale down the pattern to a smaller size. The choice in hook is purely personal. The wide gap allows to hold bigger fish and you can use whatever hook you choose. Just make sure you don't have a small gap because you will lose a lot of fish. Please excuse the lack of instruction on this video as you are accustomed to. If I could do it over again, I'd leave the music out. Enjoy and tie some up and have fun!

An interview with Hopper Juan
Here is a video that was done this past winter. It helps to expand on the pattern know as the Hopper Juan. I explain it's design, and it's capabilities as well as show it step by step. I hope you enjoy!
FlyTyingLessons.com is going to be a great site for fly tying videos, but as of right now, it is still in the building process. I'll follow up once it is done. Gary T. of Colorado is the creator of this site and he produced this professional video. Watch it in HD if you can.
