Erie Steelhead Streamers

[Cold 0]

With the end of the mayfly hatches in SW PA and only fall caddis to worry about tying, my thoughts have turned to fall and Erie steel. While I'll be sure to restock my egg box at some point before October, the steelhead streamers take a bit more time, thought, and effort to tie, so I'm getting started now. Here's a few pics of flies i've been tying:
