Default Inspired by an Ayrshire man

I think my recent break from tying has ended .Today I tied a few of these obviously suitably inspired by a certain Ayrshire flytyer's work..........

Cracking Watson's Bumble OJ! Watched the vid last night and thought i would tie a few up tonight. Ended up tying some Sturdy's Fancies instead. Not phased by the WB tying, it's just digging out all the materials that put me off. Still, i can't resist tying that attractive pattern so i'll give it a go even though i'll probably not use it down here.

Nice one Allan
I see you didn't bother with the tag.

Lovely tying OJ.

This pattern has had a place in my box since seeing it in a mag a year or two ago and saving me from a blank shortly after. I'm not sure if Davie's addition of a tag will make a huge difference... but it sure looks nice to me, and can't see a tag doing any harm, so figure I'll give it a go.

Very well balanced fly OJ, I can see that catching the light in the water very nicely indeed.
