What you tying up?

Been working on a lot of different patterns lately.

These are tied up for bass. Topwater floater/diver, APDIVER style. I get a lot of use of these. I keep one tied on from spring thru fall. I usually carry 3 flyrod setups in the boat.

View attachment 77569 View attachment 77569 I tied up a test batch of Half and Halfs the other day. Excuse my amateur tying abilities.

And now there is two pics, oh well

OK, how can you post large pics from a tablet?
Install the Tapatalk app on the tablet and it should post full-sized picture for you. Also, you can upload the pictures to Photobucket and copy the image link to your post here in your post and it'll be full-sized. If you need more help just let me know. PM is fine if need-be. I hope this helps.

They can all be downsized to meet any weight outfit. The Hollow Fleye are made with minimum deer hair, it looks like a lot but as a "reverse" tie, they are light.

I am sure most of these can be cast on a 5, 6, 7 or 8 wt easy. In most actual fishing areas you are not trying to cast 90 feet, at the most about 30 feet or so, normally less than that.

Starting the day with some Jujube midges.

I like your style. Simplistic, easy, quick ties that will take trout from the stocked streams on up to the more technical wild streams/rivers. From the Griffith's Gnat on the surface to the juju down low you have the entire water column covered with just two simple patterns. A simple relaxing approach to trout fishing.

I played around with the Fish Masks a bit, as well. Painted them with a marker for a little extra effect.

I like that! Are the clear masks simply an alternative to epoxy or do they offer more? I was wanting to buy some clear cure goo and lights, it I was going to wait until I had a rotary vise. Those Fish masks look like a good middle ground until that happens.

The Fish Mask are definitely a fun and easy material to add to your patterns. I'm very impressed with all of the items from Flymen Fishing Company. This is a fly tied as you would. Hollow Fleye with a Fish Mask added. I was experimenting with these on a 3/0 hook with the intention of tossing them to some cobia.
