DaveC Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Nice ties CC, I will post a few I have been working on need some pics...On a secondary note, the float rods going to be the secondary choice this year. Been busy gearing up for swinging. Picked up a nice little 2 seat fishcat13 for drifting, got my wife fitted yesterday with some simms headwaters and patigonia ultra lights...so shes all set. She actually is doing well with the switch rod. Attended a few tying sessions with Joe Penich, and Rob and Tama Clarke...so Im geared to get the swing mastered. Rick tells me Im casting great and I have learned to mend and shoot line...so its all coming together. Now to hook my first steelie on the spey rod !!! I,ll post up a few pics soon as I get some.

DaveC Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Here is a few Ive done recently, don't have enough experience with classic flys but have attemped a few. BTW, the float rod is my backup plan CC....LOL No really, though...Im honestly going to work the spey rod this year. I have to find a way to fish away from my roe bag friends...that's the hard part !!! troutmedic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom S Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 I should really get some tying done. I also want to do some swinging with my new (to me) single hand rod. I have done a few marabou spey flies, but I need to get some variety of colours and sizes done. Then get swinging. Especially because I just found out that we're having twins this summer... so I've to to make this spring count! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnfishguy11 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Love to see you back Cornelius! here is a little steamer I've been tying lately! It's basically just a black ghost style streamer but with all Marabou. And with Negative colors just for fun! Can't let the teenage girls have all the fun with the effects filters. I have tied this in sizes 4 to 10, and in a plethora of different colours. ZD32 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCfly Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Ha...wrong pic??? Was that you man? The negative coloured fly would fish...I would tie that up in purple and white for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdnfishguy11 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 and yeah purple and white is a sweet colour combo! I have a bunch of natural Turkey. lt is black with a green hue, I normally tie them with just a touch of white! Its a full out assault on the brookies this spring! I got a sweet new 4wt this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHasFish Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Last one for a while... come on post 'em up... Craiger, where the hell are you man... I love the sparsity and how the majority of the material is below the hook shank. Its definitely giving me ideas for my own tying. Question, does it swim hook point up or down? Thanks.

DaveC Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 That last ones really nice cc. Post the recipe for it and ill give it a shot.Thats going to swim hook down ihasfish. Thats pretty simalar to a lady caroline with some colour changes. What you using for the wing cc? Really like how you have the wing proportioned and laying right down to the hook. I guess its all in the strokin....to get those barbels down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCfly Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Hey guys...well, as I said, 19th. C. patterns are haunting me for some reason. iHas, it will swim hook down; one of the tricks is to lay the turkey wings down flat. I'm a tad heavy on the hackle but will tie another version to give you a better sense. Recipe to come Dave...and the learning curve you ask?????

DaveC Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 The hackle looks fine to me...i know for sure that thing will hook fish. Almost looks too good to get wet...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCfly Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 recipe: tag: tinsel tail: GP crest, and tippet body: dubbing rib: tinsel and asian cokk body: black dubbing and oval french hackle: P rump collar: guinea wings: turkey cokk whip That's it Dave...good luck The morality filter makes using terms such as jungle c@ck a challenge...so excuse the spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveC Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Very nice !! Question for you. With the eyes, ive seen them tied up, down, and paralell. Whats the reasoning or determining factor on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCfly Posted March 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Depends on the pattern and history Dave...usually we place the nails parallel to the rachis... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
