Hawgstoppah Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Not long till someone says Hook #4 , Body - Red wire..... done........... beyyyaaaaaaahhhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolman Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 That's funny... A suggestion... each participant could send a pm to the person they pass it on too. It might help to keep the flow moving along, as some folks may not check in on the tying threads everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladystrange Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 yayyy. a place to put my fly spam. eww, that doesnt sound very tasty does it. Pattern #2 scares me Hook: Mustad 94840 #14 Thread: Light Olive Tail: Pale green antron Middle section of body: Fluorescent Pink Floss (middle 1/3) Body: light olive ice dubbing. Dubbed lightly over hotspot Mid-wing: bleached deer hair wing tied over mid point Hackle (rear): under sized light blue dun tied in at tail and palmered over body to the mid-wing Front hackles: one each grizzly and cinnamon Front Wing: White and Dun CDC tied caddis style over hackle i'm still trying to picture the wings crossed with the hackle. i need a better imagination for this one. how strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might help to keep the flow moving along, as some folks may not check in on the tying threads everyday. That's has been done and was sometimes ignored.....I think this way it guarantees a decent flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladystrange Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 2 strands of deer hair per wing should give more space. lol no cinnimon hackle. i have ginger or furnace hackle. is that close enough? what i dont have is the antron i might have light green poly kicking around though btw, if anyone cares. i'm away come saturday morning until sunday night with no computer access.

Inconnu Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Perhaps a good name for that fly "The Defensive Linebacker?" I will keep the hounds tied up then LS, wouldn't want them retrieving you prematurely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as much my fault (if not more)..i have no clue the order to tie a steely fly haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flytyer Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 Just as much my fault (if not more)..i have no clue the order to tie a steely fly haha One of several reasons why I started this .......to get some to try something different......never know you might find something useable on you standard tying to make it more effective Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reevesr1 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Hey all, I know this is going to sound lame, but I don't have the foggiest idea what the next step of a tie is, what my options are, and what a steelie fly even looks like. I don't mind participating, in fact it would be fun, but where can I do a bit of quick research as to what my options are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reevesr1 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Rick I see you found something to add....you did just fine Thanks, but it may be fatter than what I had in my head. Actually, there is a saltwater trout lure that has similar colors and if any of these actually get tied, I'll bring a couple down this summer and give 'em a roll!
