Hi Hank,
I tied five flies altogether, the only variation was the hackle and thorax fur.
The tying was the easiest part, taking the pictures and processing/cropping them was the hardest. I did make a note of the recipes but I did not identify each fly, only the last two, as shown above. I shall show the others and give the recipes, then leave it to everyone else to identify them for me. ;)
