flies look awsome
the only thing I would do is taper the clousers a bit more
look at the taper on the olive/white baitfish and replicate
the last little squidee fly looks the buisness

What ever you do never confuse Fishing With catching Fish !!!!
Fish Are Friends Not Food
But your reasoning has a fatal flaw; it overlooks the fact that to comprehend it requires that one rub a few brain cells against each other. The heat thus generated produces the light that illuminates the fact, but alas, not everybody has the resource required to fuel the process --SG
Flies look fine mate.
Only thing in that first row with the rabbit strips, I reckon they are going to wrap around the hook like buggery.
It is difficult to see if the strips are glued together to make it stiffer or if there is a mono weedguard to stop it happening.
Might have a problem with shad nipping the tails off if they are striking short.
Would add a bit more flash down the lateral line to get them to strike higher up.
Nice ties.
Edit: Just thinking again, to stop the wrapping you might consider a bit of bucktail around the rabbit strips.

here are some new flies for my upcoming trip to inhasorro mozambique!!!

You tie some really nice flies ... my only comment is that I'd use a bigger hook especially on the FPs as you tend to close the gape a bit.

will go get some...those are the best hooks i have right now, but thanks for that! i wasnt sure how it would affect hook up as the material will give when taken, but anything that might cause me to miss something will be altered!
thank you Scythe
