One of the fortbhoy

[THE ROOK]

i havent tied trout flys like this for a while but this is my rook dabbler one of the first flys i tied myself and i tied it up for a lost forum brother!!! the fortbhoy...

i think every one should tie a fly for him...





took with a bit better light...




an awesome fly tier he was and i think this was his style of flee.


this is another fly thats been good to me, that i know he would have liked too...

Nice gesture. I'd love to share a moment with those on the forum who knew him, and tie a fly in his honour. I'll get on it tomorrow night.

Meant to say, that's a cracker of a fly.

Great fly and a brilliant tribute - just the type of fly that FB tied.

That's a very nice fly and a nice gesture.
If everyone gives the effort and ties one (or two) in his memory, could they be auctioned off in a charity fund-raiser in Stevie's name?

I have not yet learned how to tie but would be more than happy to purchase some in Stevie memory and donate this to his family or a charity of the familys choice

He would have loved the fly Wilkie as he always liked a bit of blue in a lot of his flies.
