Yes it is sure fun to show flies to women and wait for the scream Fred H. : I've been wanting to try my hand at some of those. Okay, if you have questions just ask. riffleriversteelheadslayer: the material list totally natural except the hook are you sure its not carved out of ebony lol Yes, no ebony lol :D I liked using natural materials with this fly.

Very nice looking snakefly Fred ! Have you tried it in water ? I guess it looks quite real !

Thank you for encouraging comments ! I'm trying to shrink the fly to smaller hooks but it might take some time from me. Winter in Finland is so cold that there is alot of time tying flies now
