I agree with the others...I too started by tying a few adams and they looked terrible!! You look like you're on the right track. Keep practicing and you'll get the trick in no time!

looks great, i like the slim profile

those look very good, just wondering are you using dubbing brushes to make those? I'm looking at getting one of those spinning blocks.

looks good, have you tried fishing with it yet?

Hi all,
I'm 16 from Ontario and have been lurking for a while...this site is very informative! I've been tying for just over a year now, doing most of my fishing in Ontario, but I was able to go to Alberta this past summer and fish the bow and crowsnest, what an amazing experience!
I look forward to learning about tying on this site, and I'll try and offer whatever I can. Thanks a lot!

Four Patterns To Start With
in The Fly Tying Bench
Posted · Report reply
I agree with tying the woolly bugger, EHC and hare's ear. They are definitely the first three you should tie, being the "standard" nymph, dry, and streamer in my opinion. The last one could be a choice of a few, i would say maybe even customize it to the most popular pattern on your local waters (provided it is fairly easy to tie).
Good luck and be sure to post your ties!
