Well in my post surgery boredom I decided to break out the fly tying gear after what is likely a 20 year hiatus. I haven't tied to many and I'm definitely a little rusty! Fingers are not as nimble as they once were and my failing eyesight is clearly apparent, to me at least. I've also been playing with new techniques and materials, like bead head jigs for steelheading.


Here's a few from the past couple of weeks.









This one just came together about half an hour ago....







A couple more with realistic type legs.

Suppose Sheephead would bite on those babies ;D

[Dave]

Nice work Chris, don't let Norm see those ;D or you'll have to get more supply's

[Spiel]

I'd be willing to bet that if they're tied to your line Dave the sheephead will definitely bite.
