Your getting there Tel
Fat 'ssed buzzer that is something that will come with time thinning down the butt end and tapering it in.
I don't mind some roughness in the bodies as a real buzzer is full of them.
Good work

There is a lot of improvement since your first posts Terry. I would happily fish any of them above. As you say, its practice, practice and more practice. I find it frustrating at times when you put a lot of effort into a fly and it ends up looking c**p. But I just keep going - hopefully improving!!

John.
