    First time I've tried doing a weave body fly. What do y'all think? Anything I ought to do differently to it?

    Hook: #10 2 X-Long
    UnderBody: .20 Lead Wire
    Abdomen: Black and Orange Chenille
    Thorax: Black Chenille with Gray/Ginger Grizzly Hackle
    Med. Rubber Legs
    The measurements of fly fishing: 1 part man, 1 part fish, and all God.

    Nicely tied. I usually use a longer hook, something like a Mustad 9672, but that's just personal preference.

    Regards,
    Scott

    Yep!! that's a Bitch Creek but as Scott pointed out a longer hook wouldn't hurt.

    ScottP, I first met Joe in 2008 when we formed the "Lynchburg Fly Fishing Club", he had been tying since he was 8, I believe. You ever get over this way stop in Bell Buckle, TN at "Coffee by Us" and let Joe fix you the hot beverage of choice.

    I think the length is just about perfect, but I do not know the originator.

    Let the fish be the judge. I think they'll love it.
