Now that’s what I’m talking about! You got it now

A couple more, Fire Tiger colors

Nice

Nice job on these. The only critique would be matching size hook to pattern your tying, in the case of the popper, body seems too long, start actual stacking just in front of hook point. Diameter normally is equal to ( or a tad bigger), from tip of hook to top of shank.

Another one in the books

Hey guys, been thinking about a better tying chair and finally picked one up. Got say it was money well spent, has adjustable arm rests, so because I use a vise extension, I can rest elbows while tying, very nice

Absolutely, I’m a member of Michigan Fly Fishing Club and over the years we’ve brought him in. It was great to personally get to know Chris, and I still order most of my hair through Whitetail Fly Tieing, you can call them up and tell em exactly what length you need. Great place

This pattern was developed by Chris Helm, who was a guru of 🦌 hair. thanks for your interest

Yeah, I’ve been on a deer hair kick for a while, I just did a handful of Spook’s , otherwise I’d grab the challenge

It’s fun weaving IMG_0768.mov

Nice

It wasn’t in vise, I normally use a very small amt. of water based cement to secure wing, but I removed from vise, laid it down to work on a bass bug and somehow I got resin on it, sucd big time. When it comes to ribbing, u can carefully move it a bit, in this case I may not be successful so it may get the razor. I’ll set it aside ( not in resin 😎) and think about it. The good thing about bass bugs is I always have a fresh razor blade to do the deed

Had a good one going, then destroyed wing, ( got a glob of UVon it )no after pic, will redo wing and try to straighten out ribbing

A couple of more Spook’s Hook: #1, 2/0 Shank: 35 mm, 80 mm Body: multiple colors of deer belly hair Eyes: plastic

The hook is the first thing I-slide on, followed by one 3/16 bead, once fly is completely trimmed you countersink another bead 1/3rd forward from base, then uv over it. I noticed you can’t see the hook but it’s there, off to the side

Haven’t tried this pattern yet
