new ties for me

got some new flies I like ya’ll to critique: this is the first time i’ve shown my hand here

woven tellicos and midges with paint brush bristles::\

these are size 18 on the midges and I think 16 on the woven ones…

be gentle now!!!

zzdruid,

I liked what I saw. I guess my favorite was the one on the bottom left. To me they all looked good. Might even encourage you to show your handiwork a little more often. It’s flat out motivating. Keep up the good work.

Best Regards

You tie very nice bugs, and I can tell you pay attention to detail, and worry about making them clean. This comes from the keyboard of a Commercial Fly Tyer and Professional Fly Fishing Guide.

Hi folks,

They are nice looking flies. His one woven flie I tied tonight. It has no name.

Cheers

Nice! Now let’s see one of those stuck in the mouth of a fish!

I fish, therefore I swam.

I really like woven patterns . The texture and varigation seem to give it a more real look. I’ve also started noticing how the color changes on the flies once they get wet. A whole new world exists ther I think.

Thanks to all for the review, you are most kind to a new tier.

what are the midge’s bodies tied up with? Nylon paint bristle or a quill? I definitely like the ribbed characteristic created by this material!


Tight lines,

with black and amber paint brsh bristles, unfortunately they were not of the same diameter.That would hae been better.

what do ya’ll think about a ‘beard’ on the tellicos?

Those look great zz! I’m with gqualls I think I like the bottom left one the best. Nicely done zz. Keep up the good work

ZZ…really nice looking flies there!

You did a good job and I like 'em all. Yeah, those Tellico’s wouldn’t be hurt with a beard but you can do that on the next lot!

Since you asked, I like to incorporate “some” flash in my nymphs someplace. Maybe some Krystalflash or?? in the beard for attraction? But these are really nice as is!

Good job man!

Jeremy.
