Sanchez's One Feather Soft Hackle
Cheech - August 2024
Iwas at the Southeast Idaho fly tying expo this year and I was very fortunate to find myself in front of Scott Sanchez for a little while. Scott has always been a guy that pushes creativity at the vise and I'd read every article I could from him. He was tying this awesome soft hackle, and it was so cool to see a fly tyer of his stature tie his own creation that likely had been tied thousands of times before. He had that thing DIALED... Anyway, this is a really really fun technique, and I think you'll enjoy it!
