I have moved into a very dark side of fly tying. This is my second attempt at one of the Classics. I have a very deep and passionate appreciation for those who tie these flies.

This one is very poorly tied. The tail topping has the wrong profile, the tag should have been fine tensil instead of medium, the under wing and over wing are not set low enough, the veil is too high and I crowded the gut. As fun as they are to tie, they are just as frustrating.

Just thought I would show a bunch of the mistakes for anyone thinking of tying Classics.
