    Default Been busy


    Tied the red/white and bl/chart saturday and the others are new colors I had to play with this mornin. All 1/16 or 1/32, purple didn't look good in the camera window, but it's vivid. After bein tail grabbed Saturday, I shortened up the tail of the 1/32. Proportions look OK to you? Thanx for lookin.

    Look good, if the tails were a little too long and they were short striking, just pull the remember how short the strike was and when tying more pull the maribou that much more.

    Like others I TRY!!! not to have a flat cut straight tail I like them to bloom out when being retreived.

    Keep up the great work, I like em!!!!!!!

    Those gills were hitting so much that I didn't think that they'd care, but I see the technical aspect you refer to. The little's will be beat up in no time. You could cast and watch your line on the fall and it would stop no less than 4 times before on would take it enough to feel a hit. Bad for my nerves. Got the reel for the 4wt fly rod a couple of days ago and it's sweet. Them 'gill better look out. I got a secret weapon.lol
