BugFliinger

My Buggers are done too ... where do I ship these to ??

I would like to join this swap . I will tie - Wooley Buggers ( various colors ) Thanks. ! I assume you are going to PM with the address etc . ?

I attempted the Doc Spratley tonight ... my version doesn't impress me . does anyone have a nice pattern they would like to share . ?

I would like to participate . are we each tying 12 DIFFERENT patterns , or just 1 Pattern 12 times ???

i really like that pattern . are there any tying instructions to go with it ? i am still learning , so i can't figure out your sequence for tying materials in .

Just a few from tonight I am going to have to make a trip to the fly shop because trying to substitute different materials doesn't work to well sometimes . the pheasant tail nymph especially . I didn't have and partridge to use as wing ... so i tried Wood duck Flank , it doesn't work well . The green and white Deer Hair Caddis is just something i tried because the local lake rainbows love green and white flies . Picking up a Hair stacker tomorrow , I don't like the looks of non stacked deer or elk hair , Even though some people say it don't matter . As always, every pattern I tie gets posted on my fly tying blog Visit My Tying Blog

thanks for the advice . sometimes it is just easier to understand when it is said by a person versus reading about it .

Right now I just practice using materials that came in a kit that was purchased about 10 yrs ago . Once i become more skilled , I will try and pick up the correct materials to tie specific patterns. Although , experimenting with substitute materials when tying classic patterns can lead to good things .

Just started tying . Have been purchasing my flies for a long time but decided that this is the year I will start to fish only flies I tie . See my blog to view pictures of my flies , from the very first to the present . Visit my fly tying blog to see how I progress - TouchingTurns comments and advice are always welcome Great site btw !
