Thread: It's been a long tima ago.

    Default It's been a long tima ago.

    since my last login over here.
    busy with my family, work, friends, fishing, flytying, etc......
    Often I had shown how to tie a fly at flyfishing club's, what gave me a lot of positive energy!
    It's always amazing how (often elderly) people do their utmost to tie a fly, and will learn everything about the fascinating world of insects, and how to imitate these creatures.

    For a goodmaking/new introduction here are a few of my last tyings.....
    relative easy to tie, but still a catchy flies.

    Paraloop emerger tied at a shrimp hook #14


    Deerhair emerger
    Tied at standard dry fly hook #14



    Stonefly nymph. #12


    If you have suggestions how to make these flies better, please let me know!

    Hope to post more over here in the nearby feature!
    And learn from you.
    Best regards from the Netherlands.

    i was curious of this as well... did you push with your thumb downward and torque like when you stack deer hair?
    if every cast caught a fish, it would be called "catching" not "fishing"
