Just getting back into tying after quite a long lapse; I had a few lessons a couple of years ago.

Having a bit of a competition with my Dad (garyj) to see who can get the worst comments

How do these look (honestly).

Looking good Son, tie me a couple of those 1st one's for the loch on Friday

Very good them, just don't let your dad get his hands on them. Tell him to tie his own, and some for you.

Nice, heeds could with a bit of work but apart fromthat, nice wrappings

Make sure you got ya back to the water when you tie them on

As for the heads thing ?? I think part of that is to do with the threads ?? What are you using ?? The thread looks kinda thick in relation to the hook ??

If you are using 6/0 of similar go down to 8/0 of similar ...

If you are using 8/0 already ignore the above

What a pleasant change to see a more traditional pattern/s tied... well done!! I will have half a dozen of each please

[dannyboi]

Thanx for all the comments.

Regards to the thread I am using, I think it is just normal black thread but not too sure. The orange thread used on number 3 is really thick and I did not notice this until tieing the head.
