Some of you have already seen this. But for those that haven’t I am posting this.
I really really like that:cool:
Very nice fly. Will it make an apperance on streamers 365?
Thanks guys. Yes, Texfly, it will be going to Streamers 365. I am going to try to make a better one first though.
Very nice streamer Kelkay.
I don’t recognize the cheek feather (or shoulder) not sure what you all call it there lol. I would like to tie some, and try it around here.
Thanks
Mark
Here you go. I would definitely coat the tinsel with nail polish. (if you are gonna fish them) You may even want to cover the floss too. I intentionally put the floss up in the front of the fly, to help prevent fish teeth from ripping it.
David Mac recipe:
Hook-Mustad L87 size 2 (any streamer hook of your choice)
Tail- Peacock Swords

Kelkay that’s a beauty - nicely tied for a very nice fellow tyer… well done!
I’m sure David is very pleased…
Thank you! Here is one I tyed yesterday. This one is a little more showy, meant for display. I was just trying different looks. This one is not for fishing though.
