What have you tied today?

[Lochan_load]

A goats toe, never tied or fished one but supposed to do the business. And I'll be doing a doobry next thanks to the comments above  :lol:

Lochan Load, your flies are well tied but why do you photograph them with the tying silk hanging down?

[Lochan_load]

 :shock: I just snap them with my phone while the varnish is drying, sometimes wait til later and do them sitting in my hand, is this better?? Bit blurry but sans thread!

I like the thread. It's an iconic mark of Andy's flies.

My mate and I did well with the goats toe on the Uists a few years ago.

Ha ha cheers Fred, can't say I've ever given it any thought but now I have THE THREAD STAYS!!

Where did you fish it on your cast billy? I'd be tempted to fish that on the point but is it considered a bob fly?

I think it would have been on the dropper.

I was in the Glasgow angling centre a few weeks ago looking for hackle feathers for the goats toe. Its on my list of flies I want to tie during the winter.

i got these from this guy ,much better value than the paltry number of feathers from veniard etc.
