I'm an average fly tier really only concerned with catching fish with my own flies. I've caught some memorable fish with some very scrappy flies. I think the only ones interested in perfect ties are the fly tiers, not the fish -

Hi all, Here is a photograph of a Reverse Hackle fly tied on a #14 Mustad Swimming Nymph hook. Its a combination of several flies which i thought would work on the local rainbows and brown trout Pardon the quality of the photograph as it was taken with the IPhone.

I have adequate numbers in both beaded and standard nymphs

The Woolly Bugger is a great fly as I've been told by numerous fly fishermen many times but I have yet to catch a fish on one Anyway, its a great first attempt at tying. As others have suggested, tying your first flies on larger hooks will make life easier at the beginning. As you progress in your fly tying smaller hooks can be used and your proportions practiced. Remember, to tie a perfect fly only pleases the fly tier, the fish don’t care. Actually the scruffier the fly the more fish I catch Continue to practice and enjoy your hobby.
