Default a few leggy critters
I have been messing around with some unused hen capes i had in a draw. I did not work off any specific pattern, i just wanted some hopper type flies for the coming season.

I thought i would post my results for today. All comments welcome good or bad. Again my photo's are not great.

Thanks everyone for the replies. Fingers crossed they will work. I will have to tye up some sparse versions aswell.

BigTroot.

The hackle is a Metz Grade 2 Cock from Artifly. I am not sure of the exact colour i just asked for a vibrant red.

Thanks Again for the kind words

Alan
