Back at the Tying Bench

With my recent success with size 16 frenchies, I decided to tie a few to stock pile them.  I whipped up a half dozen and then I tied three size 16 sowbugs, to replace the three I lost over the last few times I went fishing. My hands are so rough, it makes dubbing and finesse ties a real pain.  On the other hand, I don't need a dubbing pick or velcro to make my bugs extra buggy.  I won't be getting out fishing this weekend as I will be out at camp for an annual event, so I may try to get a couple hours on the stream tomorrow night.  The next fly on list to try is the WD40, supposed to be a great imitation for the blue wing olive nymph/emerger.  With BWOs around the corner, I need to get on it.

I'll try to take a few pictures of some of my flies, as pictures are worth a thousand words and I don't have the urge to replace them with a thousand words.
