Default North by north-west dabbler

Still on dabblers so tied a few up this weekend, this being one of the results, I've used less fibres in the tail for this one and not that heavily dressed with bronze mallard. Tied on a kamasan B175 size 10.

Getting fed up with complimenting you on these beautiful flies Wingman, but must add that your photography has reached the same glittering heights.

No body would think you've only just started doing Dabblers. Superb Mark!

Yes Fortbhoy its from tying far too many spiders probably, its a bad habit thats hard to shake, I will have to try harder although I suppose it gives a slightly different look to the fly but it does save on seals fur

Thanks falsecast and mancfly (the lord he moves in mysterious ways), yup photography is improving falsecast, my focussing could still be better though but its acceptable I think/hope
