islandfisher 0 Report post Posted November 15, 2010 Just started fly fishing / tying earlier this year. Here are a few flies that I've tied this year. Both fresh and saltwater patterns inspired by various books / websites. Any comments / suggestions welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

islandfisher 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2010 Tried tying my first epoxy fly using some materials I had around. The eyes are actually those little stick on plastic rhinestones with painted on pupils. Also tied a steelhead spey. Cant wait to test them out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
learnin to fly 0 Report post Posted November 22, 2010 That Spey looks awesome. I'm liking the epoxy fly too. I recently purchased some "nail heads" at a craft store for using as eyes on a few crappie jigs. They are metal and look much like the name implies and come in several colors. I might have to try one of those using nail heads for eyes. Great work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
