crunchers take 2

[bobblaikie]

a few crunchers.

i think these look a bit better than the one in my original post a few weeks ago as i am now using hen hackle instead of cock (cheers maharg )

any advice is always welcome. and sorry about the poor picture quality.











thanks for looking,

Bob

I'd say try and shape all the heads like the last one, it has a lovely head.

Nice ties. I'd be entirely happy to fish any of them.

Last one does look very nice.
How long have you been tying?

[mattybhoy]

i would take the body nearer the bend - but a big improvement on the last picture.

[bobblaikie]

thanks for the comments guys.

Steve, ive been tying almost a year but i dont get nearly as much time at the vice as i would like.

That's pretty good then.
Just keep at it & all will fall into place.
Try tying 6 of an identical pattern in one sitting & you should start to get the consistency

[flytyingguy]

There a lot better, i like the top one

[bobblaikie]

cheers flytyingguy

my next challenge is to find some time and get out and use them
