you underestimate your abilities Trap! I  can see that fly quite well with my old eyeballs and what I see is another winner. I fish dries like that 90% of the time even with a hatch happening. Like an old timer told me "if you throw a fly often enough , you create your own hatch"! Go do it.

dark cahill like a adams  is  a classic  and  very under estimated  fly  i like  those  adams  march browns and  blue wing olives  early season during the  first hatches  .... i like  the best pictures i can get and  the  recipe we have some new  people at the bench  .....  i want them  to get a good look  as they  start to copy  .....heres a  good  one i been  tying over 50 years and  just had to learn how to use a whip finisher  ......  and it was hard lol  i always whip finished with my hands  but  i have trouble  doing that  now  with arthritis  .....  so  it's  always change  and learning  even for a old  fart

The fly today is the march brown
Size 12 Daiichi 1180
Teal flank wing
Pheasant tail fibers tail
I used hairline march brown dubbing with a single wild turkey tail feather barb as rib
One grizzly hackle on brown you adjust the fly color by how much grizzly you wrap

Great early season fly march browns are a big may fly I tie 10 12 14




Now something I was thinking .often tyers with experience get talking and talk about expenßive vices tools and gear which are all great but you can produce great flies with inexpensive tools these are the tools I used to fill my box with march browns




Keep tying and let's see your flies
you can destroy buildings  you can't  destroy the  american spirit

Nice work, your photos are good (as are your flies).
