Here is my fist attempt of tying a deceiver fly. It was tied on a 1/0 split shot hook and it is 4" long. I tried to make it look like a rainbow trout...I think.
I was finally able to tie the bucktail without it flaring like many times before. I know it needs improvement but I had fun tying it. Maybe the head should've been olive or maybe it is too long for the hook.
Please criticize it.
Thanks
