Default Flys for your eyes only

Been tying flys for some years now and enjoy the hobby a ton, one of the best parts of flytying is the sharing of info and styles of fly patterns.o"ya shopping for the newest stuff for your creations. With winter fast approaching I know that I'll be on the vice! Are you?
I'll send some pixs of my flys for sharing soon.

Cool

If yo look at the views to posts ratios of any of the fly tying threads. There is a great disparity. It takes a while to learn how to post pics from photo bucket . Check out the how to post pic thread it will be a great help. If you wish view my "from the vice" thread . It was started on the first few hours of the fly fishing form hemce the high post and veiw numbers. Please feel free to post away . Help I can offer try to place your flys for photography, in the vice or with a plain background or an interesting backdrop. Hope that helps.

I have no idea what any of this means.
Nice looking flies, I can see how they would work.
Not everyone that views a thread is going to post. Although it seems that some people do.

The ratio of views to posts always favors the views man, not everyone that views the thread is going to comment unfortunately. Nice nymphs though, I'd assume they do well on stillwater here. Have any photos of fish with them?

A little on the overly sensitive side.

More specifically. ....do you own firearms?
Yeowza!!!!

Sorry about the egg , makes people uneasy on the fly world , me to!
Always amazed how fish love the fuzzy flys , with stuff like hackles , marabou ,rabbit ,any thing that flows . Eyes and rubber legs and some sparkle in it.


Got a nice one to share , Monday or so.
Go fishing...

"From the vice" ya that post is amazing , let's let the little fish
Have his Day too!
There fun , when have you said I hate that little guy? Not me any
Fish is good one. Like these post's it's all good on my rod. Lol

Quick Tips to remember /

Glue your knot , tank test wet flys, make sure no sharp ends are sticking out,
Make 3 of one style, put then new flys in boxes for that situation of your outing, a little sparkle just to wink at them fish, don't be afraid of odd ball
Materials in them creations(dog fur)eg. And most important have fun.
- The fun of fly tying is just do it-
Send a tip or two ? If you like

With thout sampling going on,match the hatch look, sure helps.just say"in bring your bead box and try them out, NO Bait needed! Only your imitation . Man and you add a shack with a small heater/ coffee. See you out there, I'm the guy catching and Releasing the big one!! Lol

We share our flies on "from the vise" thread. You should post your sweeta** flies on that thread, you'll get a more aggressive response if you actually post photos on there.
