In my opinion, the body is the knock-out element of that fly. Buggy, buggy, buggy.
Really nice tie. Thanks for posting.

Nicely done, Hans. This should be a knockout in the water.

Hans, I love it all. I especially like the buggy look. I hope y'all know you got me sidetracked for quite a while from my streamers....rotfl.

Absolutely excellent......splendid dressing. Way cool hook........keep 'em commin'.

Kelly, "consider yourself lucky"..........and as you well know how i feel bout luck...........the real questions is, "What took you so long?"

Hans,
Once again the simple eloquence makes this a beauty of a tie.

Mark, I don't know what took me so long...lol. I think tomorrow marks my fourth year of fly tying, or maybe it will be Sunday. Regardless, it took a while, but I am finally here.

i was just kiddin' ya......don't make any difference when, long as you into it now. Your prolly gona go through a few more periods of time studying and tying many different styles and genras.....before you settle in on something. OR, you may never settle in on one thing in particular, and just become a master of it all. Stranger things have happened. All the best of success to you either way.

Another excellent dressing Hans. I do like the tail, what kind of fox is that
Is it our old european red fox or something else
