A few flies I have been tying

[Rp3flyfisher 0]

I have been playing around with a few patterns for Steelhead and Salmon for the last few weeks, here are a few examples.

 

 

I have a bunch more that I will post in the next few days, just need to take some shots of them.

Great looking patterns tied nicely,body and wing work is great , heads could be alittle cleaner though

Nice flies Rick. What is the make/model/size of the hook you are using? I like their shape. What is the white wing material in the bottom fly? Is it organza fibers? Neat looking material, whatever it is.

Is the marabou at the head of the 2nd fly well just behind the ( what looks to me like maybe spun hackle . might be calling it all wrong . how did you get it to do that ?

The white material that I used on the bottom fly is Called DNA, I LOVE the stuff. The hooks are from Vision Canada. Model number FL-510T size 2/0.

It is Marabou. I just tie it in like hackle (By the tip) and bring it around the hook, just like a soft hackle, making sure to stroke it back every turn.
