nice job Dick .Sleepy

Comment by Rick King on January 16, 2013 at 9:12pm

Dick -I agree with Allen, tying more then  one really helps. I can tie some patterns in my sleep because I have tied dozens of them and others I have to look up again because if I don't I usually miss a step......... and I experiment way to much. I should just tie what works (I think)

Thanks Bruce hope that can happen now.

Looking really good Dick. Tying regularly is the key.

You should see my list of "Flies to Tie" that I have saved!!!!

Comment by dick tabbert on January 16, 2013 at 7:15pm

Thanks Allen got lots of flies I want to try.

Comment by Allen Morgan on January 16, 2013 at 6:47pm

Dick, that Clouser looks great!

Practice makes perfect!  I typically tie up at least 2 - 3 of a given pattern.  This does help.  Some tiers that I've been reading about will tie up a dozen or more of a pattern.

Rick I'll have to check some your stuff out again see what I can attempt to try and copy. All you guys are making good flies makes me envious.

Comment by dick tabbert on January 16, 2013 at 5:59pm

Thanks Carl that's my 1st palmering so I know I'll get better.

Comment by dick tabbert on January 16, 2013 at 5:57pm

Thanks Jim hope I don't run out of patients before time. I'm always hard on myself cause I know I can do better but I guess that will come with time.
