    Very nice flies! I like that Quack Doctor. If you replace the wing with the blue section from a mallard wing and you have a bloody butcher which I use quite a bit, in smaller sizes that it (12 and 14). Once I get some turkey quills I'll tie up some of these to go with them.

    Andy,

    Very nicely done. There are quite a few wet fly guys on this forum who appreciate nice work. Keep an eye out for the Wet Fly Swap that will be run by HCMiller on the swap board. There were some very nice ties in the last one.

    Two very nice flies, I wish my wings were as good as that. My own fault, I don't tie enough winged wets.
    I'll have to get some practise in. (Is that correct, practise or practice?).

    Andy,
    Very nice ties indeed! I appreciate the way your wings turned out as mine don't seat well at all. I've read a lot on the "how to's" but the experience factor avoids me.

    I just did a swap where I tried my best but still wasn't satisfied. I don't fish that style too often at all but it's the tying thing has my interest. Such an historical method and they "look" SO good!!!!

    Like Donald says, it's a practice thing. (Donald, you have enough seniority to spell that whichever way you prefer...*G*)

    Andy,

    Nicely tied, and great looking wings.

    Wings have always been tough for me, yours look great!!
