That is a lot of tying. Those should make someone very happy
I hope so. Most of the hackle is from a pheasant. I like it and took the picture so I can copy my favorites:biggrin
Those look good and should work good. Very nice.
Thanks SuperDave. They definitely work. Been doing well with them so far this year. Just need the weather to stabilize for further field testing.
Look very good, I love fishing that lil stuff for my Gill fishing.
Best part so far is those sickle hooks have been easy to remove and without damages done!
Very nice work. I tie some small tuff too and I like what I see. Somebody gonna get a good deal.
Man, that’s the truth. That is a lot of work and the ties look great.Quote:

MCG1, thats what families do, rub off on each other. Keep them coming.
A nice bunch of jigs, they should sell well.
I donate hand ties to local charities for fund raisers and they go well.
It seems that anglers are into hand crafted lures and willing to pay a good price for them.
Like grumpy said, family. Everyone here has become my second family, no face book or other aggravation. Just like minded people I could spend the day in a boat with.
My panfish bugs/jigs didn't bring much at the sale. Just over 50 cents each. Had fun though and gave some away to a about two dozen kids and a Vietnam and Iraqi veteran. The negotiations and up selling was entertaining for sure!
It would be willing to bet that they brought some smiles to the kids and veterans faces. To me that is priceless.
Like I mention ended, my Panfish bugs were mildly successful. I also was able to sell some on a local auction site. I did get a referral to a steelhead/salmon fisherman to tie 500 flies though:biggrin You never know how things will turn out, eh?
That is great news
Congrats on the pick up!Quote:

Thanks, it helps having great material that I got from you and Skip. Really looking at that Texas Toast color. Would make some great trout flies!
Those look great!

Fun to tie. Been so busy haven't fished them much. They were killer baits during the spring though.
So how’s the work progressing ?
Awesome. Just got a new order and still have more to make as long as the salmon run doesn't start. Has really helped me focus and grimacing the way I build flies and jigs.
