Hey Fly Tiers...What's In The Vise?

Further adventures in tying Gammerus with some Emu feathers I got the other day.



Sure look buggy.

Great job on those flies.

Thanks. I’ve been working on and off on some of the classic flies. Got out my wing burner and worked up some Burnt Wing Sulphurs.




 Forgot how much fun the wing burners are. I’ve got about a dozen more. Have to look up some more patterns. Bet a bluegill would eat that.

First chance to review your recent work RG... I've been quite busy which is good I guess, makes the winter go by faster. My free time has been spent going on bird hunts for the family bird watching contest.

All excellent ties. I've used Zug Bugs pretty much my entire life, big believer in them.  Was my go-to fly on the Esopus Creek for many years.

Those scuds look alive. Cool stuff.

The Zug Bugs took me a few to get the proportions looking decent.

Here’s a Wiggler pattern I’ve been playing with using Emu feathers for the legs.



Might work.

And a few detached body offerings.


 Tried some larger burnt wings. They don’t sit quite right , but bass aren’t as fussy as I am most of the time.
