started tying again, opinions wanted

Recommended Posts

Size 8 blue charm...

My spool of yellow uni-floss decided to disintegrate for some reason so I had to resort to the rusty rat coloured danville floss for the tag. My floss work blows, I have to learn to get it right before proceeding to the rest of the fly.

Black uni-yarn for the body.

You could also try "Honey, I'm putting you in storage..." :devil:

Yes, they are used on the Miramichi often as well, the "cosseboom special" -- it's brighter than the normal one.

my floss work got a lot better when i loaded the spool of floss in a regular bobbin (not one of the those floss bobbins) and that uni-stretch floss is awesome.

This is my first ally's shrimp. I love the look of this fly, and that it is fairly different than most of the other hairwings. I can see myself tying many many more of these in the future.

 

This one is red (don't have orange bucktail at the moment).
