My first "Flies from the Vise" post. I have been getting ready for a November trip to the warm waters to chase Bonefish, tarpon and permit. Working on tying flies from Drew Chicone's books. These are the Tranqu-Hill-Izer Shrimp as an attractor shrimp. Then the others are some simple Cocaine Crustaceans for quieter entry into the water. Let's see how these post.

Welcome to the site, PA. Those are some nicely tied salt water offerings. Probably work well in fresh water, too.

Lots of beautiful ties this month already. Here's a few I threw together this weekend. Nothing special.

Thanks for the welcome. I have been reading the site and love the postings of the flies people are tying. Some amazing tiers. I have watched the videos from several people here as well and sites such as BobCat hollow and tied some of them. Great stuff.

 

Completely agree that the flies don't care if they are tied for fresh or salt water and quite often the fish don't either! I have no issue with grabbing a fly on a saltwater hook and tossing it into freshwater. Being in PA I get to fish more freshwater than salt. Love to chase largemouth and smallmouth bass, panfish and whatever else will bite. I get to the Jersey shore a couple of times a year. This year I was working to catch some flounder on the fly - and caught a cow nose ray! They are known for stealing fly lines but I managed to land it.

 

Lots of rain in PA this year has blown out lots of creeks and rivers on the weekends. Too bad.

Just a bunch of stuff. The CJ thread got the blue one cooked up. A dry using CDC as the hackle in a split thread wrap, a midge, a streamer a reverse parachute and trying to figure out that Tarcher thing. As always great work y'all

Good looking ties Sandan. The Tarcher pheasant tail gets to be easier as you do more. I now have friends taking numbers to get some as there is none sold at the local shops here. Orvis and LL Bean.

Sure, rub it in. As always a work of art, Kimo

 

Thanks Sandan.

The animated GIF is just lipstick on a pig.

All show!
