All look great - all fish catchers.
Really like the hackle spread on the second one.
Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the comments. The first and second have Brahma hen in dark dun. The 3rd one is a red tipped ginger dun for hackle. The dubbing on the 3rd one is my own mix mainly of awesome possum, with hare. I also added pink in the thorax, although it is hard to tell. The first two dubbings are mainly awesome possum and hare mixed. (no pink) I mixed both myself, so they are not a standard dubbing. The tails are all Coq de Leon hen saddle feather fibers. The first two have a cinnamon silk, the last a salmonberry.

Thanks gingerdun, I'm hoping to one day be able to tie some of these like the old masters did.

The first fly looks a little compact to me, but the other two look great. Nice proportions and shape.
