There are so many great tiers on there. They are from all over the world. Great thing is,they all have their own ties and takes on other flys. Like I have said before,I am not one to get into the fancy competition fly ties. I see something that will work here,I will try them. Funny how some of the simplest ties,are so effective here.

gordy28 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Brian great looking fly! Question when you tie are you following an established pattern and making personal tweaks or do you just make them based on matching the hatch? I don’t know much about flies or fly tying but it’s really an interesting hobby cheers Andrew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pin head will match a shiner here on lake Simcoe. It will also match lake Erie shiners. I have sold my ice bugs to guys that fish Erie,as they work what we use on Simcoe .
