What have you tied today?

[Robbie]

That look very buggy, sure the fish will find it irresistable  :fish;

Aha ! Hope you have a good one John - me I'm on the count down to another trip to N Sutherland in 3 weeks.

Like that one Col - gonna tie up a few variants for gloaming sessions in the far north.

Cheers,

WHB - I tried your tying for the Ronald.  It's probably not right, but it'll catch fish for sure.

Disappointing John, that's got a lot of Peter Ross in it.............................. :tongue2

[Black-Don]

Can't get out fishing so tied up a few of these.

Cracking  flees Donald, your tying really has come on leaps and bounds.

Thanks Fred. Better tools and materials play their part with a bit of practice thrown in. Still plenty of room for improvement though.

Thanks Don

I'll be tying some of them too. If you show me yours then I'll show you mine.  :shock: :lol:

Merkister Maid. ( some material variations )



Varies from the original pattern in that I had to use what I had but kindof the same. Not up to the standards of the originator but it was a first attempt. The tail could've been a bit shorter. Di 7 and work the flee well. Apparently these sometimes get fished four at a time with very good results  :shock: .

Still hoping that I might come across a few more sea trout...
