    I’ll repeat everyone else’s sentiments…they all look great. I am envious of their creativity and skill. I am partial to #1 and would like to offer it up to the carp that live in a river by me.

    The Tradd little is beautifully executed and something to look at,well done!

    Having successfully fished wiggle flies like Tradd’s stones, i know that is a killer pattern. Well excecuted from a fine young flytyer.

    although they all look great.

    it was a hard choice between fly #4 nd #5. I would say that it was a draw between the two flies. is it possible to get a description of how to tie these flies and the receipt. if possible could the please send it to "dalebea65@sbcglobal.net ". I would greatly appreciate it.
    our club “Miami valley flyfishers” DAYTON OHIO has a large amount of instructions on tying flies. anyone can go to “MVFF.US” and see a print them for clubs.
