great looking flies Robin!
Rhyne - I just made a few schminnows, and never even knew it. :D I was trying to use some tiny hackle and it kept breaking on me, so left a bunch without.
Lunchbreak flies - I packed up a box the other day to take, got to work and realized I left my vice at home. :mad: So I improvised.....

Works just fine (even rotates) and have been leaving vice at home now, less to carry. Here are some lunch-break ties, but would much rather be fishing at breaktime, c'mon spring.....
