The top fly in the first pic, you should frame. Man dude you have "the touch of class" Like I said that fly is a beauty, frame it or put it in a safe!!

Wowsers!! They are big and they look like they are going to squiddle off the table.

 

You just need to add one more material......water.

 

They will swim on their own as you probably already know. No stripping needed with those babies, just a little twitch of the rod when in the strike zone. Feel the pluck....wait to feel the weight....tightlines!!

 

FYI - I got some of those rhea feathers and few ostrich as well. Some like the wispy black hackles too, but they are white.

 

Gorgeous artwork that is also fishable and functional.

 

I just want to tie some flies now, I can't go back to work:) LOL
