Prob not unless the hackle falls off. I do just as good with them like this or picked out, so I won't do the extra work

Love the fly, the body work especially is very eye catching. I know the fish will love this!

Gorgeous flies, Scott! I need to make room for some of these in my box as well. Killer dressing.
Hey, are you a southpaw (lefty)?

Nope, I just take my photos opposite of where I tie or sit so it looks like that. I have the background to my images pinned to the back of my chair, so I just turn it around and snap a quick photo and get back to work. I have my flytying desk in the middle of my room so I can walk around to the other side of the table to take a photo. It's just easier for me to set things up this way. I also like it this way so when I tie with someone they can watch me tie or I can watch them tie, or just talk with them easier. It makes solo video work easier as well.
