Default Fly tying

Is it just me or is it a bit quiet on here with regards to fly tying???
Normally the traditional time to get the vice out, but it does seem a little quiet.

What do you think????

Yes have to agree usually find plenty of inspiration on here but there seems to be very few flies compared to normal being shown. I even had to revert to showing my efforts .
Or maybe everyone has been banned

Well we will all just have to get the finger out and offer up our humble efforts
Maybe I will get banned for showing some shocking patterns, lures, blobs and egg flies

No worries James, the thaw is on so the bear should be off home soon. Hope he didn't leave to much of a mess

Im thinkin of emigrating into the attic myself, any suggestions as to what it should contain (apart from insulation, and an early warning infra red system)
