uffepuffe 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2008 Been doing some fishable realistic ants lately and tonight improved it a little more, I guess making it something in between a fishing fly and a "art fly". Dead easy to tie and I also did one with no hook which I am gonna give to a friend (post that later). Ulf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henrik Thomsen (DK) 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2008 Arrhhhh, hate ants, and this one is just too realistic for not beeing a real one. Reason for hate: Walked into a room in my moms house when I was a child, and it was full of flying ants comming up from small cracks between floor and door to outside... The skill in this forum amazes me, and makes me wonder if I'm ever to be as goos as you guys. /Henrik Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
