Description

OK...Here goes : This is a fun challenge to develop tying, creative and photographic skills

Moderator chooses a pattern/ style/insect etc.

Submissions must be:
1. It must be a new tie
2. Materials are your own choice
3. Must be true to size, shape or characteristics of the insect/pattern
4. Creativity is encouraged
5. Have a recipe along with a photo

Give a deadline for submission or a time period (say month to month) ...say do up wet flys in March or a Hendrickson in April
As the submissions come in everyone is encouraged to give a critique of the fly designed to help the tier in some way.

Does anyone see the three photo albums in this group?

To the right you have the options of "upload photos" "Create Album" Show all albums"

Or do you guys not have this? or seeing this? Strange???

Steve,

Not really sure how to post the recipe to the fly so I just uploaded the pic and then posted it in the comments.

If you could that would be great.. But i say it doesn't have to be original to enter.

Well there,s no problems as far as tying the flies, but I have no knowledge of how to operate a digital type camera, so there,s a problem there.

Byron Thiel, Maybe someone with a good macro can photo for you? Just maybe mail them a fly?

Debbie HDebbie H on Saturday, 10 March 2012 02:51

Byron if you want I can do that for you! Like I did for you before! K
I don't mind at all...
