Default A few from my vice

I do not profess to being a great fly tier and definitely not a good photographer but i hope these show up okay. I hope to gain some constructive criticism of these to help improve my tying (not been doing it for long). Also someone said i should post some flies so he could have a good laugh

Hope the pictures work as i have never done this before either hmmmm....

This little bug has caught me a fair few trout stalking and i hope it will take a few grayling this winter.

Many Thanks

Well done for getting the confidence up, the flys look great and in proportion. How about some recipes with them?
