They all look nice Jonnie, and the photography's excellent as well especially the general shots. I think on the close up shots you should play around with the focus.

Especially like your grey cruncher, I'll be tying a few of those.

Thanks for sharing.

the photo's are compliments of scratch, I can only dream of getting a camera to do that!!!

I just tied the flies! Cheers for the comments. No1 and 2 are pretty much the same, partridge tail, partridge hackle (claret for no1 lime for no2) and a body of blended seals fur, a bit of every colour I had, twisted into a soft copper wire loop and wound up the shank like a hackle.

No3 has a ginger hen head hackle and fibres for the tail, JC cheeks, peacock quill body (from the eye) and a wee bit of G.O. seals fur for the thorax.
