    Default Woven Body fibre Baitfish

    Hi Korrie,

    I'm thinking of tying this fly by mixing weaving and synthetic fibres. Just had a fly tying session this mornig, so have not had the time.

    Weather looks great here for ff, but it's rugby or ff for bass or salt. Cant make up my mind. We'll see what happens.

    What you tying today???

    Not tying today.
    Busy at the factory, have 2 big hotel orders we are busy with, then this afternoon a wedding.

    The one thing I like tying with synthetics, there are no hard and fast rules.
    Tying an Adams or a humpy, if you tie it diffirent, everyone frowns.

    Did come out quite nice. Still battling to spin synthetic bucktail, will now rather try polar fibres and other finer synthetics.
