Well that is just kick ass! Allow me to lower the quality of the thread with some very quick fishing flies...Gil Scott-Heron...haha i am so punny, well not really was a coincidence as i was listening to the album.

Jam and John.. OUTSTANDING. For not being able to find much time at the vise lately your pictures help get the wheels turning of things I want to tie when I finally can! Keep em' coming!!

I'm still thinking warmwater fishing. Here's a baitfish pattern I found and tied up. I like it, and will try several different colors.

Trying a more classic approach to streamers, need lots of work yet though!

While not as elegant as most of the flies you all post on here ... this one is for catching sunfish.

I call it Chell's floating ant.

It's a golden pheasant crest, found on the head of the golden pheasant.

well today I sat down and just to get the juices flowing I started playing with a little hook I call this one the Fireman I plan on mounting it with the Maltese cross from our station and giving it to our chief for Christmas

I could tell I was rusty with the tinsel body and for the life of me couldn't get it to start any better any critiques are wanted and appreciated

I am still messing with the same pattern, found some funky black tipped teal feather i used for hackle

 

 

Then the boring old steelhead charlie

Took picture of prototypes a few months back, still working on Juvenile Perch patterns.

Looks good! Definitely work on your tinsel some more and maybe shorten the peacock a bit but other than that looks very fishy

yeah I got to tie some more tinsel bodies funny what you lose when you don't use
