Okay, Dan.

I used to be envious of your ability with deer hair ... sad.png

Now, I just hate you, period. tongue.png

 

That fly is fantastic. Could almost be posted in the "realistic" forum.

 

I saw the picture before I actually paid attention to who tied it. I mis-guessed who tied it.

Kimo, I think you've got competition, now.

Chia ... I don't tie "game changers", so this is only based on pictures and tutorials I've seen.

They all seem to be trimmed much "tighter". Yours seems a bit "fluffy"

 

But like you said, it'll catch fish.

Rather nervousness about cutting them down......

I wouldn't cut them. Tie in shorter materials on the next ones, but leave those. You'll know if they're too long if the fish rip off the tail without getting hooked. Otherwise, hold on, you just might catch a personal best on one of those.

I would disagree. That fly is kickass!

As always, Eide. Your flies, and the photos are near perfect.

 

(I only say "near perfect" because I'm always supposed to suggest room for improvement ... it's in the "teacher's guide)
