February Flies from the Vise

Recommended Posts

Pretty sure I have shown this fly before
but a buddy asked for a dozen so got back on the vice.

I have always loved your scuds! How do you get such a tight cropping on your photos?

Thanks. Just plain old Photoshop and an old Nikon CoolPix 5000.

Yes, and it will stay in macro mode even when you zoom.

You can literally fill the frame with a size 16 fly.

Nikon no longer makes anything like that in a Point-and-Shoot.

You have to purchase traditional DSLR with macro lenses.

A few Black Beauties from last night's Bourbon and Bugs session to start. A plain Jane Black Beauty and a mercury flashback Black Beauty.

The latest project is getting that deer hair spinning technique down so...here's an attempt at a not very Irresistible with a high vis wing not that it needs it.

 

Black Beauties are 24s. The Irresistible is a 16.
