All about flies Fly Tying

Thought some tiers might like to see Vickie’s first attempt at an Atlantic Salmon fly. The pattern is her own design. Enjoy

Very nice texture, color, and they catch the eye so well, i know some Steelheads that would love that fly as well. :smiley:

Wow! Very handsome, beautiful colors, beautiful proportions. I hope she names it after you.

Beautiful tie VEE. Beware Ron! Look for telltale clues such as Ronn Lucas on Speed Dial; brochures of Iceland and Norway; she’s asking how to spell Restigouche and Matapedia; dinners consist of Swanson Microwaved Goodies; she wonders if a 12’ two-handed spey would fit in the luggage you now own or should we look at some new Samsonite.
Well Done.

Thanks Folks,

VEE hasn’t seen this post yet. Doesn’t know I put her fly up. Shock!!

I agree, she is a talented fly tier.

Ronn, she is already perusing the links you have on yoour web site for materials, plus a few others. The search is on, in earnest.

Mcsteff, she already knows her 12’6" 6wgt two hander fits, it’s the 14 foot 9 wgt she wonders about. About the materials, see above.

Fantastic VEE! Keep us posted REE.

Oh my! I just spotted this!!
Ron’s pretty sneaky… Thank you for the wonderful comments. :slight_smile: I really enjoyed tying this. Ron thought I was bad about materials before and he’s really sweating now! :slight_smile:
Ronn Lucas is only a few hours away and I hear he has fantastic materials ( Hmmm, maybe I could sneak down there…) Just kidding :slight_smile:
Once again , thanks for the nice comments
