I'm thinking low and clear...

Like to know what you think.

in hand?

are you tying in hand with a bobbin? looks great, a natural looking crusty bug!

I'm thinking "look out steelhead"! Very nice tie.

 

[Cutthroat1954]

Oops. And perhaps salmon too!

Thanks Gentlemen. Custy is exactly what I was going for. Watched a video recently with Harry Lemire tying a full-dress in hand using a bobbin, a bodkin and a heated hook as a cauterizer. Being that I've chosen Mr. Lemire as a mentor - of sorts - I've switched to using a bobbin also. Like tying off the vise - using a bobbin has it's place...

Cutthoat1954 - These are dressed for Steelhead btw.

I like where you are going with these. Low and clear would be a lovely choice. I'd take that out back today!

I love what you do with these hooks! Every time you post something on them I get all excited and want to go dig out the herons!! Just awesome!!

Cool flies; i tried a bobbin once in hand and it was a pain in the ass and never tried again. Pinky and ring finger is easier imo
