To swing or not to swing? This is my first attempt at a Dee. Patterned after a spey I tied and landed fish on a few years back. Biggest change is the spey had tragopan for a throat.. And I don't have any good feathers of the length I wanted for this. Any critices are welcome. I Know it has a few issues.

Thanks guys... Got a chance to swing it today but the water was up and clarity wasn't good at all... But damn it looks sexy as **** in the water!

Nothing like fishing the classics. Well done for a first attempt at a Dee, looks like you have been tying them for years.

 

[Dancingcaddis]

Thanks...after fishing it and thinking on it, I'm going to start tying and fishing them a lot more
