Critique my Caddis
Well, after 16 years I am going to try and tie again. Well, I wasn't any good when I did it back then. I found my old kit from High School (Class of 92, make anyone feel old?) and I bought what I lacked in supplies for the flies I will be using here in NM.
So, here is my first complete Elk Hair Caddis (there were two attempts before this). It's bleached Elk hair with some tan/brown dubbing and dark red hackle and thin copper wire.
I Don't know about the color combos but I used I had. I only have the one color of hackle for now.
I will spare everyone my first attempt at the Gold Ribbed Hares Ear, it's pretty beastly looking...

The sport is so royal that there is neither gentle nor villein, if it knew of it and loved it well, who would not be more honoured for that reason by all who understand it.
