All these pics are dang purty. But remember folks - they're for fishing, not admiring!

I'm almost done with mine. I'll get them out in the next couple of days.

Mine are done. They'll be in Monday's mail. Here's a pic of what I tied. The soft hacle is willow ptarmigan that I got from Sitka Deer.

Nicely mottled feather. Will global warming send those birds here to California?

macrabbit,
I ain't fishin' with mine. I think I may put them up in some sort of frame like one a friend gave to me. I'd rather have them on display with pattern/tyer's name listed too. I can always copy the tie and fish with that, but when it comes from someone else's vise they won't see water.

Nice tie hunterbug! I like those simple "buggy" looking flies that catch fish. Peacock herl is great.

I think that we're at 12 flies. At least I hope so because that's how many I tied.

I have a stack of muledeer, whitetail, blacktail and elk. Body, hocks, etc, but none if it was working quite right. I have a patch that works VERY well for me, but it is getting trimmed down, so I use it only every so often.
