WOW ! fantastic work ! Bravo, Mr. Whillock is a talented artist. You guys reach a higher level everyday!

Chewable fly ! From now on, you'll catch fish with your own flies, believe me, it's a plus Simple flies are usually very efficient specially with peacock herl. Welcome in the world of flytying. If there is a Flytying club in your area, go and see the guys, they will be happy to pass their know-how.

Thanks, Yeah the wings are made of turkey center tail. Once in a while, I have a kind of frenzy for a week or two where I have to sit at the flytying bench and try all sorts of techniques. I am also member of a flytying and flyfishing society in Three Rivers province of Quebec where I have the chance to rub shoulders with some terrific flytyers so it helps a lot for the inspiration and everything... Keep on tying and show us your work !

Just want to show some streamers I tied a few years ago on CS17Hooks, I had to retouch the point of the hook on this picture because the flies were pinned on a styrofoam. I gave most of these patterns to friends of mine.

Great fly Pujic ! Man, these flies look like jewels to me. Nice rendition, one of these days, I'll have to sit at the flytyingbench, pour myself a dram of a good single malt and try to tie one of these. I would be tempted to put this mini-monster on my wife's pillow and wait to see (and hear) her reaction, Ouch!

Graham, You're an artist, maybe Georges Lucas would be interested by your talent. At first sight, I thought you were using true emeralds for the eyes ! Do you imagine insects like this one, big as an elephant in your backyard ? Better lock the door.

Congrats guys, standing ovation for these beauties !

Congratulations, super flies !
