Took advantage of a pretty quite day at the home front and got the opportunity to work of my fly boxes. Did get to serious, just attacked some random holes. Also decided to come up with a new pattern for the lake box. Here are some pictures of what was put into the boxes today.

My version of Barr's Bouface. Many difference is that I'm using a pine squirrel collar instead of the marabou collar. Also some new olive tungsten beads on this fly

New olive chironomid pattern. This looks to be a killer, can't wait to give it a try
New red chironomid pattern
Good looking bunch of flies! The chironomids should kill, they look great...
ReplyDeleteThanks Midgeman, need to post the one I just tied up. Its not my pattern but it is cool.
ReplyDeleteVery nice flies! I myself am tying my first Prince Nymphs. I am convinced that Goose Biots were put on earth by the fly tying gods to frustrate novice fly tiers like myself. Good to see you back.
ReplyDeleteDavid biots take time to learn, practice, practice. If it helps tie in one at a time.
ReplyDeleteNice tying Carl! Where did you pick up the olive beads for the bouface?
ReplyDeleteThe beads where sent to me by Ducan of Montana Fly Company. New color of tungsten bead not available for sale yet.Hopefully they will add the color, I really like it
