TINSEL FLY - Fly of the Week - January 25, 2010

TINSEL FLY

I tie flies for fishing not for showing in display cases.*I tie fast and some would say sloppy but I’ve never found fish to be overly concerned about how neat a fly is.*I find tying flies I don’t mind hanging in a tree or getting stuck on a stump to be more rewarding than worrying over a lost fly.

Great fly! Simplicity goes quite a long way. This is a nice minnow pattern.
