Nice job. These deer hair bass bugs can be a lot of fun to tie, they can also drive ya crazy if you let them become a work of art. I have gotten really lazy in my older years and thus don't pack mine as much as I use to. My results have shown that they don't float as long, but they still work fine. When tying the diver types of flies, including the muddler minnows, I think tying them softer (not so hard packed) work even better. I think the fish take to them better because they are soft, more realistic and there for, don't spit them out. Just my thoughts...
