How weird, now all three have appeared .

Bloody awful, worst flies I ever saw. . I really like the wings on the first two. You tie them well back along the shank. Never really thought of doing that. I'm going to give that a try. Thanks for the idea. They look good. What material did you use for the wings?

Chris.

They look good, a few questions though:-

What size hooks are those? they look a little heavy guage to me. Are you not a little concerned that they might be a little too heavy for the fly?
Also, why have you chosen an upturned hook eye for this fly?

[boorod]

Christy 27, all the wings on the first two are cock hackle tips.

Andreb, the hook sizes on the first two are 16ns the last is on a 18, as for the gauge size they are quite fine not sure off the make though, and the reason i tye my spinners on an up/eye is 1 it keeps the leader off the water that bit better next to the eye. 2 i also think they look better IMOP.
thanks B

Nice little flies B. What's the wing material on the no-hackle fly?
