Hopefully alright to share this here but have been enjoying making some fly tying videos of late. This one is for a soft hackle mayfly nymph. With the new season just around the corner I will be making sure I have a few of these from size 16 to 12 in my fly box.

Very nice tie bro!   

Good to see your sticking to an old school style in that your keeping it slim and not too bulky. Means they sink well but aren't heavy. A bit more like the original Sawyer's tie😎

Nice to see someone putting up a post in the fly tying section.
Really classic fly and am tempted to tie a few, cheers.

Thank you very much. Yeah I definitely like toy ry and keep them slimmer. It's easy to over dress them especially with something like this.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it
