Guest Report post Posted March 7, 2007 When I seen Bud's challenge, I thought to myself "no way". Not only did you pull it off, I think it is one of the most creative realistics that I have seen you or anybody else tie. Truly great work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm really joyed for you that ya pulled it off so kick AZZ!! :headbang: WoW! Brent Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uffepuffe 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2007 If you would have posted only a photo of the finished turtle I would have had a hard time to belive that it was tied, and even with the steps by steps you posted it's still hard for my brain to comprehend that it's an artificial and not a real one. Probably the coolest and most realistic fly I have ever seen. True art! Just plain crazy.... Ulf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
