Pat Cohen's Video

We all know him.  He does some stunning and breath taking work.  His name is synonymous with deer hair. In fact I would bet that if one mentioned the name Pat Cohen in fly tying circles, those listening would immediately start thinking about golden bronze backs and multicolored, vivid 1/0 flies tied with deer hair.  Hell, the man has a gift.  He, without a doubt, does some of the best work with deer hair the fly tying community has ever seen.  His punk rockers alone are mind blowing.  I am sure his artist background has helped a lot but damn can the guy tie a mean bass bug.  Recently, Pat branched out and made a video about stacked deer hair.  I, of course, had to have it.  As soon as I could afford it, I bought it.  I mean who wouldn't want to tie bass bugs like Pat does???  Naturally I have visions in my head of turning out some masterpiece shortly after watching this video which I know is not the case but hard not to dream about.  Sadly I have not had a chance to watch it yet but I am sure based upon his work it will be awesome.  I will let you all know how it is when I watch it and create my very own stacked deer hair diver.
