Pretty darn good for your first ties, every one of them will catch fish. My advise to anyone starting out would be to tie every day, even if it's only one fly. Keep up the good work.

Welcome to the club! They will all catch fish. All to often we get too tied up on how pretty our flies are.

Fantastic, fish em!!!.... The problem with fly tying is that to often we tie for the fisherman and not the fish. If the size and the shape is right thats all the fish worry about. An welcome ot the club!.
