Stunning work for only tying a year. Your floss work and proportions are right on :headbang: :headbang:

That is a stunning spey, Who named that pattern anyway

Excellent :headbang:

Some very nice tubes. Do you normally use that long a tube?

Very cool idea, where did you come up with that wing idea! :headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

Nice. I found the first one missing the fly ... this one worked.

I think that would work on some n coast steelies as well. classic colors.

Missed this one?

Try this site for hooks

If you get a chance, pick up Bob Veverka's Spey flies, the information is very helpful and valuable.

Fantastic. Thanks for sharing the technique ... I love the bulk butt building approach. :headbang:

tying production will make you consistent and efficient!

Great idea, way to take an idea to a practical finish!

Excellent use of those feathers.. Nice GP Jens.

thx

You want bronze mallard instead of mallard flank for spey wings, and then the two strips should meet in the center and tent over the body. Mallard flank is two soft to tent properly.

I can't tell you much about Atlantic salmon flies but I know there are patterns that work on numerous species. My first thought is the silver doctor which was tied as a wet fly all the way to a 5/0 salmon fly. A number of speys can be tied small for trout and other species and can be fished in all types of water.

Tied this over t-day, and hope to fish it soon (fingers crossed)

Nice design and well executed. How is this horse hair ... stiff or flexible? body hair or mane/tail?

Nicely tied.

The silver doctor is an exceptional pattern, and you have some exceptional tying skills.

Neat hooks and the palmering on the body is perfect.

A "full" floodtide. The JC on the shoulder is really excellent. nice work again

the long spey type hackle is beautiful as is the orange throat :headbang: :headbang:

One excellent fly after another ... these are fun to look over. great job
