vjc 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2015 Hello all. I have been ready this forum for two years and really like looking at beautiful flies. Thought I'd post a picture of a recent fly I've tied. Criticism welcome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlaFly 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 Nice fly, and pretty good picture. I'd give it a ten if you hadn't clipped off the tail with your camera. Always best to take pic a bit larger, and crop it to suit. But good enough that we can see what you tied. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
utyer 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 You should start with a fly that is done much more poorly than that one. From now on, we will expect every fly to be better than this one, and you have set up a pretty high standard for yourself. Looks great to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for reminding me to be more careful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
