Recommended Posts

I'm contemplating the Rogue Foam. Looking into a few things to see if I can pull it off. I'll figure it out over the weekend.

I'll take the Zug Bug. The Zug Bug was the first fly I tied for my first swap on the Forum. I don't think I have tied more that a half dozen since. Hope these are better than the first ones.

Well, this is WAY over my capabilities. I didn't tie the underwing. I did make some wings off of an online tutorial. Pleased with them. Not happy w/ the body - too thick for the size. There is a lot of fiddle faddle with the Rogue Foam!

With everything there is a learning curve. You’re doing fine.
