Latest Klinkhamer attempts

[fishyjames]

Here are two Klinkhamers I have tied, still need a lot of practice on these, but getting better, Thanks to maharg (Graham) for sending me the proper materials for Klinkhamers





Mainly tied the black one to see what it would look like, doesn't seem like it will have the same affect on the fish as the other one.

Thanks

look fine to me i think they will both take fish.

Thansk for the posotive comment Although, you must admit, I do need a bit more practice...

Well you've done the hardest bit-getting the hackle and post on. Just need some tweaking, I think post and hackle could move closer to the eye quite a bit. Body on the first one starts great then gets fat. Notice how it starts nicely tapering then drifts. The distance from the centre of the hackle looks to far from the eye-needs a general move up.

You've got the plot just need some minor tweaks...
