NEW DEEP IN BACKING FLY TYING PRO STAFF

I want to take this moment to introduce our latest Pro Staff Fly Tyer Marc Madore, we are very happy to have Marc in our DIB family, Marc will be an important asset in making our free fly tying video section a success, his expertise and knowleddge in tying atlantic salmon flies will help many of you in perfecting their fly tying techniques.

Welcome Marc

Deep In Backing Pro Staff Fly Tyer


Marc Madore

Blackville, New Brunswick

Marc Madore Facebook Page

Marc is a well known figure in Eastern Canada & Quebec Fly fishing communities. A full time river guide on Quebec North Shore Region, an fly fishing instructor 

Drainage/Rivers: The Miramichi river & Margeree River

Marc maintains he is responsible for popularizing the Chenille Bugs in the Miramichi system. This was not an easy task, but he finally got an authority on flies for the Miramichi to admit that they fish well; however, the same person refuses to stock the Chenille Bugs because they are not tied with original material. “There are problems in tying the Chenille Bugs. The main ones are that you have to double the bodies and tie in the hackle by the butt rather than the tip, or the hackle can break”, says Marc. “I’ve done a lot of study on the Atlantic salmon. I am totally focused on it and I gave up all other fishing so I can fish only Atlantic salmon. I gave it all up so I can learn what makes the salmon tick. One of the things I learned is that, contrary to popular belief, the Atlantic salmon eats bugs when it enters the fresh water rivers”, says Marc.


According to Marc we are fishing flies that are way to big. The smaller the fly the more fish he gets. There are reasons for this. Marc believes that flies should have a lot more action to them than the flies we produced up to 1996. The whole world of fly tying can be regenerated if we wanted it to. If we take a look at the history of some of the older flies, and who tied them and where they were fished, we could get some of it back. If we look at the “Jock Scott” and the other very classic flies for example. Where were they made and where were they fished? They were fished over thousands of fish, but the Gillies at the time could not fish, nor afford to fish these places. Those flies were designed for fishing under adverse conditions.

Marc’s favorite feather wing fly is the Canadian Black Dose while his favorite hair wing flies have to be a green butt “Black Bear” and a slightly modified “Undertaker”.


“Canadian Black Dose” tied by R. Marc Madore

 

Marc feels that it is just as much of an art to tie the fully dressed feather pattern flies by using substitute material. It doesn’t cost an arm, or a leg, for material and the substitute material can look just as beautiful. Marc has been teaching a lot of people the art of fly tying and when he sends his students away at the end of the course he tells them to go and practice what they were taught. Many of his students have come back and told him that when they converted the technique and precision he taught them to tie the feather wing flies into tying their hair wings they now tie a hair wing fly that is twice the fly they tied previously.

Robert Marc Madore April 2005

In the early 1980’s Marc tied a fly that he was very proud of, so he took it to show Cliff Brown, an older and experienced fly Tyer in Oromocto, New Brunswick. Cliff examined the fly carefully and said, “Marc, it’s a good fly, but remember one thing. Continue tying flies as you are, but keep that fly and in five years take another look at it.” Marc did as he was told and in 1985 when he looked at the fly again it was totally different. After he started tying the feather wing patterns in 1981, his hair wing flies improved tremendously because of the precision and techniques he had to master in order to tie quality feather wing flies.



It is not easy for a guy like Marc Madore to name his favorite flies. It’s like asking a parent who their favorite child is. You couldn’t help but to love them all. However, in being forced to choose his favorites Marc selects the following:
Favorite Tying and Fishing Hair Wings
Canadian Black Dose
Thunder & Lightning (Conversion)
Green Butt “Black Bear”
Undertaker (Modified)

Favorite Classic Patterns
Mar Lodge
Jock Scott (Loved because it is so complex to be tied properly)
Green Highlander
Dusty Miller
“Picasse” tied by Marc Madore

In 1996 he caught his largest Atlantic salmon at the Blackville Pool beside Doctor’s Island.  The magnificent fish, which weighed in at 28 pounds, was caught on a fly called “Picasse” tied on a #4 hook.
Favorite Origination

A modified version of a “Carter’s Bug”, which Jerome Molloy and Bryant Freeman (Eskape Anglers) got him interested in tying. It’s not an attractive looking fly, but fishes well.

Marc, who is also a registered New Brunswick Guide, takes great pride in helping guests who come to the Miramichi to capture the elusive Atlantic salmon. He is committed to protecting the integrity of the guide and can be very vocal if he feels that guides are not living up to the expectations of what they are required to do to insure that their guests are properly cared for. Over the years he has met a lot of guides, some good, some not so good. There are the ones who will say, “This is the only way we do it”, even if they are wrong. Marc is the kind of guy that believes in what is right and he is the first to tell them that this is not the way we do it. It has to be done right, or don’t do it at all.

RIVIÈRE VERTE TROUT NYMPH, Deep In Backing Free Fly Tying Video Tutorials

Deep In Backing Free Fly Tying Video Tutorials

RIVIÈRE VERTE NYMPH

In this section you will find the RIVIÈRE VERTE a fly patterns used by our Deep In Backing (DIB) staff for trout.

The Riviere Verte is a cross between a Muddler minnow and a hares ear nymph. It was first tied for a river that flows in Northern New Brunswick. This river is and important tributary of the Saint John river and it hold brook trout of impressive size. This fly was conceive in the early 90 when Jocelin noticed that trout would refuse muddler minnows and when the fly got old and all chewed up trout would take the fly readily . So that night he conceived the original fly. Since then it has proven itself all throughout Eastern Canada. It has caught many trout in the 5 to 7 pounds range and many atlantic salmon on the North Shore .

THE CHÉTAN TORRENTS A RIVER TO VISIT AND ADMIRE

THE CHÉTAN TORRENTS A RIVER TO VISIT AND ADMIRE

The cold temperatures have arrived in France Chétan River region, wich gave me time to visit this most amazing river torrents in all of  France. 



A well oxygenated crystal clear water give us a birds eye view of the wild resident brown trout





















To have a river which such irreproachable water quality matched with his remarkable wild population of trout takes lot's of dedication from the local fishermen, fly fishing association and biologists (aappma). With all the work like river bank restoration, water quality restoration and implementation of no kill sections, we hope the Québec anglers, association and natural ressources will take notice and help us create such beautiful and pristine watershed.
