Beauty!

Beauty!

@Moshup, Me, I'd like to be about 97 or 98 and shot by a jealous husband. Nice tie too. Everyone else excellent work as always!

Anyone who says, "youse guys" is AOK in my book

@Moshup thank you. I certainly hope he would have. An interesting but too short life. What a terrible way he died.

What I'm thinking is an Atherton style dry. Based on his #1-#7. All natural materials, blended natural fur dubbing, Catskill style wings and extra small gold oval tinsel. I used CDL for the tails cause I didn't like the spade hackle I picked from the necks. Oh yeah, size 16, dark barred ginger hackle. Dubbing: mixed natural mink/X-tremely fine natural PMD and dun beaver.

Welcome. Great work you're showing. Keep 'em coming!

that, sir, is a beauty

Depends on the size your tying. You can use 6 strands, twist each pair then wrap 'em.

@niveker thank you sir @utyerPMDs were one of the flies that did great. Spinners in the early morning, then duns later. Last Chance cripple Flavs were very productive but the clear overall winner was a size 16 rusty spinner. That was on Henry's fork. And thank you.

After a week in Idaho and YNP is back to the vise. Last night's Bugs and Bourbon. PMD hacklestackers Hook: Fulling Mill 5050 size 18 Tail: Med. Pardo CDL Abdomen: PMD goose biot Thorax: Trouthunter pro PMD dubbing Hackle: Whiting med dun bronze saddle There's been some great ties so far this month. Very inspiring. Keep up the great work everyone!

I'm heading up there this Saturday for a week, I'll let you know.

Exactly what flytire and chug said

Now your hats will fit nice and snugly

Jon, Welcome. I have to agree George is a wonderful human being. (Not saying the rest of you all here aren't) He's helped me quite a bit and also turned me on the Mr. McClain who is also a great guy. I'm really digging what you're tying. Sandan
