Nicely done. Did you happen to get her wet yet? It must look delicious.

I threw it into the water. It is better than I thought. It will be good for slow water, I think.

Kirk, spey hackle - no problem. You can use fur twisted in dubbing loop. Mohair, schlappen. ringeck pheasant rump feather, hen and cock with long fibers to small flies.

This is body. I used my dog underfur (?) . Front hackle - teal, gadwall, woodduck and flat wing. That's all. Simple spey finished.

Thank You.

I tied this inspired by David Nelson's flies.

I like steelhead and spey flies. I dont fish with them only because there are no steelheads and very few atlantic salmon in our rivers.

I used spey flies in Mongolia. Natural colors were ok. I hope that in short time I will go for steelhead. Canada I think.

Thank You.

tag - flat gold

tail - unknown pheasant a'la tippet feather - beige with brown/black tips

Hi

I tied two small spey flies with flat wing. First is for steelhead and second .... I don't know.

First fly I tied on Partridge Salar #7 and second on TMC 202 #8.

Paul

Ray, one dozen for me, please.

Paul

Fantastic spey fly, Mike. Excellent.

Paul

Mark, I am glad that I can again enjoy your flies.

Paul

halcyon, thank you.

Paul

They are all most excellent pattern books for use on the tying bench. The other titles in the series are "Shrimp & Spey Flies", Featherwing and Hackle Flies, and Complete Flies - which is simply all the flies he had patterns for that he didn't get in the other three volumes.

I"m sorry. Halcyon, you wrote about other two books. Thank you.

Thank You

Ok. Books by Shewey and Mann. What do You think, should I buy a set of 3 Mann books? What about other two? Are they worth having?
