Fly Tying
Claudia

Flies from the vice.

Recommended Posts

I'm now up to the "S" flies in my attempt to tie all the classic wets in Bergman's Trout. This is the Sabbatus. I kind of goofed it up by trying to simultaneously wrap the black and white silk strands for the body. The "stripes" aren't as uniform and clean as I would have liked.
