My first spey

Recommended Posts

Wow, Claudia! You should post this fly in the Classic and Artistic category on the Classic Fly Tying Forum. I know for a fact that the "regulars" would really appreciate this Spey!

I found a flaw! if you zoom in on the 3rd rib there is a slight kink visible in one of the ribs! But you have to look hard and use some imagination! OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My first spey looked more like a woolybugger with a wing...

Your flies are always an honor to see........no matter what hook they are tyed on......... B)

 

Your second spey is FANTASTIC! VERY creative and imaginative............so YOU. :D

 

 

Btw, Steve Silverio gave me a fly today and a brand new idea to try out.............and THIS is gonna be fun. One of my very favorite "Classic" fly tyers, and people whom i've been fortunate to meet and get to know just a bit over the years.................is Marvin Nolte. Marvin designed a fly that Steve has since mastered as well. The fly Steve gave me is a Marvin Nolte design and tyed by Steve...........it uses CDC in a very unique and (as far as i knew until today), brand new way. The fly Steve gave me and that Marvin designed is on bout a size 7 hook.....(somewhere right in there), but i am goin' to take the design and "Expand" it and tye in that style on a MUCH larger hook and take it way out there. :P So, on that note.....i bought a whole new stash of CDC feathers, (from Marc Petitgean) that are much longer than you'll usually find, and all are dyed in Brilliant Steelhead colors..... :) .......i can't wait to get at it. In fact, i will experiment with the design at the next show. Wish me luck. mark..... ;)

First spey... Oh no! I'm throwing away my vise , tools and materials.

I'm not tying any more flies. ;) :)

 

Claudia, phantastic spey flies. Beatiful colors. Great ribbing and body profile.

Great job. The body looks like old pirate treasures.

 

It's been a pleasure watching Your spey flies. :)

Hej Jens.

Jo da :) nok fisker jeg ... i fish all my flies, i started fly fishing this year the 29/2. sins then iv been fishing or practesing every day with my Orvits T3. my Orvits is an extention of my own arm by now, i started practesing a Scierra 2hand 17/4, and i still fight and struggle that 14 foot... Hehe, its so long i can skratch gods a.. with it hehe.

"home waters" are; Finjasjön, Helge å, Yngsjö were iv been spinnfishing sins i whas a little girl. Over here in dk iv been fishing in odense å, coast line just outside cph og tangvej but mostly put and take in Lynge drive in. its easyer to go home to sweden were i know my waters like my own back pocket (its hard to find new water alone)

Hi Claudia

That will be a smart move. We actually have a lot of members in the Copenhagen area (solving transportation issues). Last year we had both coastal fishing trip and casting instruction near Copenhagen and I can tell you that there will be a great program for 2009. The program is not released yet but will be before Christmas.

Regards

Jens
