EZ body shiner New Pattern Database Submission

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

I've always thought those were great looking minnows but have yet to tie one. Nice work!

They are relatively easy to tie which is a plus. The downside can be the cost of the material. I think the 3 feet of the mega cost me like $20 or around there maybe $25. I think I got 9 flies out of it. Cant remember. I did a few other varations: a green back and a blue back (with red and sivler eyes respectively) and red flash down the middle on the blue ones I think. I will add some photos of those variations to this thread soon.

I think you can buy a similar material at hobby lobby for much less. It's with the ribbin and bows.
