Cyperts Minnow with variations. Used boa yarn instead of chenille for body. Also different Mylar tubing for the back and belly.

2 ugly cicadas Foam and rubber legs with red pin eyes super glued in

I find closing the window and then reopening seems to make it work better. But it can take two or three times to make it happen. Rick

We have had steady 30 mph winds with gusts to 45 mph. Makes my casting much worse so I have not even tried.

Here are flies I received at Sowbug. Also saw a lot of others tied.

On my fifth try today I got on. Aren't computers great?

42 days and 6 hours.

Very nice fly. Rick

I have received my order in a very short time. Also cold not send you a message. Rick

I order hooks from wholesaleflycompany.com and some fly tying supplies from the Fly Tyers Dungeon. Rick

Very impressive Bruce. Rick

Sorry to hear this.

But Bryon, I might not make it to the pond. 🤣 Rick

I tie most of my ants from the self liner stuff and tie a parachute hackle around the center. Rick
