Attack of the pink things. (fly tying)

[reeseman]

The first one is kind of my attempt at a baited breath using pink marabou. Didn't exactly turn out how i wanted it to but i liked it none the less.

After my first and last fly fishing session I dropped 2 small bream with a pink thing i tied before so i thought it might be a good idea to make a few copies, however each one always turns out different.

And finally with the last pink thing i made, i kinda went all out there and gave it a bit of a dark fur appearance to kind of give the fly a halo around its body, to distort the outline. Then it was topped off with a red throat, i always like a bit of red underneath my lures, i reckon it looks like gills.

I'd appreciate any criticism and opinions, feel free to also post pics of your own flies. I would like a few more ideas from just the ones that ive found so far.

Reese,

So I guess the big question is...... so no more fishing for you, just tying and maybe going back to Uni to do a degree in Entomology...LOL.

Good effort, keep it up.

P.S - You should post the one's that never lived....

Cheers,
