Nice looking stuff. Awesome Skwala, Flybum.
I have been working my way through all the flies in the tying manual that came with the Orvis fly tying kit i got for X-mas. I can say with certainty at this point that i really hate tying the Hare's Ear Nymph. I was tempted to throw the thing out the window a couple times. Im gonna give it a fair amount of time before i come back to that pattern again. I have loaded up on tying books so i have a good database of patterns now. I am always looking for more though. I am wanting to find a book that shows a lot of the more modern patterns that are tied with foam.
Best thing i have done though is replace the cheap clamp on vise with a Peak rotary vise with a pedestal. I really like that and it has made tying a lot easier. Keep up the good work gentlemen, i look to your ties for inspiration.

that fly will catch a lot of different fish. they can be pretty good on the swing for summer steel or stripped for smallmouth. nice tie!!

no way!!! my ties aren't even that good..not to the human eye anyway.. i have realized the fish don't care though. But, when i get my hooks and materials for leeches (might be 2 weeks before that happens) i can send you a few of those for sure. im damn good at tying egg sucking leeches. they are nothing special.
scratch that idea: i do have some pheasent tails i tie for march browns or just medium mayflies in general, send me your adress and it might take a bit but ill pm you when i get them sent out. maybe a few ice dub princes too.
