First one, probably on the second beer! and is very well tied and looks damn good to me
Second one, and maybe you`ve had another couple of cans and your starting to see red? Ie legs, palmered hackle and head hackle! Too much of one thing is never a good thing etc etc, when it comes to tying a fly! Although you managed a fine enough head on it
