What have you tied today?

like those claret bumble cripplers Garry, very tasty indeed

My first fly in a good few months (and it probably shows!) went for a dubbing rope, teased it out  and then trimmed it tight. The pink should give away that I'm going to try for grayling tomorrow for the first time since I was in high school. Bloody freezing but it's a rare chance so I'm wrapping up and going for it!

Falling back on some favourite loch colours; orange, blue and sunburst. I'm struggling a bit but I like the look of this [attachimg=1]

I've been trying to get on the water since last week but alas the old fella has been an in patient at two separate hospitals since I spoke. He's now in the Beatson for a few more days so can't see me getting out before well into next week. Tied a few more wee patterns that I hope might excite the grayling.

Some wee slim spikey gamarus shrimpy things.....

Putting my efforts to shame Jim, I find them hard to fish and tie!

[Bobfly]

Those "gamarus shrimpy things" are the very business. Really nice

Very nice Jim...they will defo work.  The wee addition of a hot-spot either in the abdomen or thorax would also be a welcome addition IMHO.
