Fly Tying

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I recently had the inspiration to tie some Steelhead flies again. The first one I'll subject you to is the

Syd Glasso pattern the Quillayute. Instead of the Teal called for in the palmered hackle, I used European

Widgeon which is pretty close. The throat hackle is Blue Eared Pheasant dyed black, and the wing is

of course Golden Pheasant flank.

 

Please feel free to comment.

Beautiful work Mike,

True Glasso Style, Tiny head.

I think its much better with the European Widgeon than Teal.

Impeccable floss and tinsel work.

I'm inspired and impressed !!!!!!!!

:cheers:

Lovely tie. However, the Quillayute is not a Syd Glasso pattern but correctly a Dick Wentworth pattern. Dick designed and tied this in the style of his fishing companion Syd Glasso.
