Talking Look Out I'm Back !!

Ok People I not been about in here for a while and not really rolled anything since June

Wanted to have a bash at something I have not tried before so had a go at these . No Idea how you tie Shrimps/Bugs type flies so made it up as I went along and as ever don't have the materials but was fun messing about and came up with these 3 fellas

Great ties,very realistic, that seethrough material on the shell back looks well. What is it?

Cheers all

The material on the back of the first one is some sort of rubber stretchy "stuff" I got from twincast The back on the other 2 is some slices of plastic I took from a snap top packet that had dubbing in and then all 3 flies had 3 coats of Sally Hanson Hard As Nails

The picture looks unbelievably scrumptious, oozes lifelike tones in the dubbing. Drab but alive. I'd seriously be having that if I was a trout! Excellent!
