I've been tying flies for about 13 years now. I just enjoy being able to create new patterns and actually get to fish them when I go fishing. I started making these a few years ago. Gave some of the first ones to my dad and last year I posted some on Instagram and people wanted them so I sent them off. It's a little time consuming and sometimes a pain to make only because I like to get them as perfect and realistic as possible. I'm always toying with a new idea on how to make them better.

I've got four left as of right now, Might make a couple more. If anyone is interested I could trade one for a cigar or two.

Look cool, great work
Have you tried larger sizes? Obviously would n't be for fishing but home/garden decore, might open you up to bigger market

Impressive. I've tied flies before and I've always admired the super realistic creations people can do. Way more patient than I am. I also couldn't ever fish something like that, I loose a lot of flies and that's one I wouldn't want to lose.

That's pretty impressive man... I've worked around anglers and bait shops etc for a while and have met a lot if people doing this type of thing on their own or their spare time.

Yours are top notch
