Hi thought I'd introduce myself with a fly.
I'm very new to tying, and fly fishing too, been fly fishing for about 2 years and tying sporadically for about a year, but have just set up a fly tying desk in my Man Cave ;) so now I'm really getting into it.
Wanted to tie a Bee/Wasp pattern for a fly swap on another board and after some searching on the web found this pattern so gave it a try.
Here's my first completed attempt, still needs some work but i was quite happy with it for a first go around.
Tied this up yesterday on a size 10 Aberdeen hook, I will try them out this weekend, see how they fish. Will let you know.
Tying instructions are here:

I am also going to tie some up on a bigger hooks to immitate the bigger mud daubers and hornets that are around in Tampa right now, maybe a 6 or 8 for Bass
