Brian Brown75 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2009 Not bad as a first, practice makes perfect, on the tip only use 5 wraps of tinsel, pick the dubbing real well, to get the small heads go against everything youve learned and croud that eye also i can see your working thread. One more thing, you want to take the top half of the tippets on the underwing off and moisten the tie in point on the wing with some spit and keep constsnt pressure on the wing while you tie it in. The best way to learn these is to strip the hook and tie it several timesuntil your happy, make your JC longer and you can probably salvage it from flies thats what i do anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can somebody please tell he how to get the head to look like that other classic and free styles heads. Thanks Nealbo, your best bet would be go to the classic site, post it and ask for help. In general your tieing skills are apparent but there are some fundamental problems in a couple areas. The heads of classics sort of go against the norm where we actually "crowd the head" if you will. Its a proportion thing that actually begins with things like tip, tag, butt, tail length, and the tippet wing length all play a role in the over all appearence. Its a nice looking fly but the guys at the classic forum can get ya going inthe right direction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
