Hi. Here's couple flies I posted lately to the blog. Tried to take a photo that would show the speystyle wing as much 3d as possible, I'm pretty happy how it turned out. You can't really see all that's going on from a flat sideview of most flies.

Beauties - those doubled slips will definitely give more profile in the water.

Hey Timo, Cool wingset on that spey. Really like the split wing like that.

Excellent work Timo.

On that Black King, did you tie. The wings forward then pull them back and secure them? I tried that method a few weeks back and failed at it terribly. You've made me want to give it another go.

Thanks guys!

On this one no. But that's like the holy grail of spey wings if you can do it :chuckle: It's really hard to do it and get it to look nice. I just tied the wings a bit more horizontal and tried to leave a tiny gap on top to separate them. Pre-tightening the wings with a piece of thread helps a lot. Once they are secured pull them apart to get them to sit like that, you have to use a bit of force so that it affects the tie-in-point too so that they will stay that way after they get wet too.

Only the finest large production hook on the market right now... McNeese's Blue Herons. they only come in 3 sizes and all of them pretty big.
