Thread: Tying lady bugs

  1. #1

    Default Tying lady bugs

    Hi there everyone I was wondering if anyone out there has tied a lady bug pattern. I have bought them before, but because I can now tie my own why should I buy.
    Other than to help out the economy of course.
    But if anyone can help me out with a recipe on tying a lady bug I woul be grateful.


    Thanks

    This may or may not work. I found it here in the Archives of the FOTW:

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    If you get the "Fly Tyer Magazine" spring 2009 addition you will find a excellent lady bug pattern on page 68

    Whether you think you can, or think you cannot, you're probably right.
