Default Wiggle baitfish and hello!

Hello all, I am Ulf and I like to tie flies I saw a few familiar faces here and thought I'd drop by and join the fun! I have a taste for fishing flies with a realistic touch, some might think that they are over detailed and maybe they are right but it's just what I love to do. Crazy is what crazy does... sort of

Thought I'd just jump right in with a little baitfish pattern that I like. This is a pattern I did first and foremost with slow flowing stretches of streams and dawn fishing in mind. I wanted the wiggle tail to work with the current and to lure those slightly larger (ie huge) trouts to bite. I have however tied it to a lot of people who use it for sea trout along the coast of the baltic sea where I live. This colour would be more for the sea trout than streams but it's adaptable to whatever colour you want.

I did a step-by-step for it which can be found here:

Hi. I've been looking through your website. Very nice stuff (especially the section on gills) and exactly where I'd like to head.
