Owl Jones 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2012 Hi Hans! I love this kind of fly - effective in it's form, but artistic in design. This is fly tying ART and I'm excited to see how you're using such a minimalist expression in this one. Very nice! So simple, yet so artistically complex.

nightheron 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2012 I can look at your flies in one of two ways. Its like being a guitar player and walking into a club in 1968 to find Jimi Hendrix playing. You either want to go home and use your guitar for kindling or you aspire to work ALOT harder at it. Your flies make me want to learn so much more and work alot harder! Beautifully appointed fly Hans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
