Monster Caddis on tube

Massive big dryfly on tube! Didn’t get the body perfect, but I need a better scissor to do my trimming. This is going to be a fun fly to test this autumn when the trout is hungry and feeding on mice, and if I get a chance to throw this in a salmon river I’ll definitely test it out.

Small tubes on double hook

dryfly.me.2014.02.13.double_allThe other day was small tubes for treble hook, today are some hair-wing for double hook that I tied up the same night. These should work good for salmon, but also (especially the red-tag) on seatrout and browntrout. I like the redtag the best in terms of colors and execution, and should have some of those tied up for the trout season.

Small tubes on treble hooks

dryfly.me.2014.02.11.treble_allI have tied a lot of big hair-winged tube the last two months, but salmon (or trout for that matter) isn’t always interested in the big juicy flies! So today was a tie-up-small-tubes-for-treble-hook day and I got some in different color variations to see how they come together. All flies are done with Arctic Fox and/or temple dog.
