It's all there Alba: decent ribbing, dubbing, hackling and whip finishing.  You'll have too many flies - just like the rest of us - in no time at all. Well done and keep posting!

Nice flees Col and Chief. 

The orange Guinea fowl on the Ace of spades in particular is a nice touch.


wee bri........

Brian,

would you believe the orange Guinea foul came about more by chance than by design ?

A few years ago I bought one of those Lureflash " How to Tie the Ace of Spades " packets and it came with orange Guinea foul.  :shock:

The funny thing about the tying instructions contained therein was that it didn't tell you to tie down the Matuka wing with the wire rib.  :?
Needless to say my tying has surpassed the requirement for " How To Kits " these days.  :wink:
