I haven’t even been able to cast a fly this season crucial,the waters been far too low.

Glad you like them

Great hackle tying skills, good eyesight too on such tiny hooks

I only tye easy stuff now, like f fly's, generic deer hair caddis & nymphs

My eyes aren’t what they used to be either Paul. I had to buy a magnifying glass with a light and it makes a difference. I am tying more predator flies these days,but I still like to tie some clydes now and again.

Well done, my friend. Too bad you weren't able to try them out this year with the water being so low. Be patient, maybe next year. That's a good looking box of flies you have there. I wish my boxes looked that good.
