Li'lDave 0 Report post Posted September 16, 2015 Hey, Dave, I think something is trying to eat your bottle brushes. Might want to look in to that. What is the material in your brushes. Between the uniform length and the shine, I'm at a loss. Makes a real good looking shrimp, tho. Kirk B. thanks mate. It's just home made dubbing brush using rainy's craft fur. Have been playing with it for most of the year.... getting better Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2015 It's okay ... you don't need to re-tie it. You can't be perfect ALL the time. Just learn from your mistakes. Of course, it could just be my glasses, I've been meaning to get to the eye doctor for a few months now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deerhairdan 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2015 First attempts at gigantic musky flies for someone who has extreme trust in me for some reason. Typically I tie flies about 1/10th the size. These are all Partridge Predator X 8/0, the orange one is 6/0. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jd1983 0 Report post Posted September 18, 2015 A basic size 26 cream midge for the tailwater game around here. I'm not convinced this is even going to be small enough but I'm not sure I can tie much smaller. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
