Nice ties!

Tonight is the first time I noticed it was WHISKER! That makes so much more sense I've been thinking for a year, "man. I like bourbon, but this guy REALLY likes it!" I've even told friends of mine, "hey, did you see that post the Whiskey Wrangler made?"...Yeah I've even been trying to rationalize it... I thought maybe your job was to transport the casks around the distillery or something. -knobcreekman

All ties look great so far! I ordered some dumbell eyes and some more tying thread which should be getting here today. I will tie them up and send them out ASAP

Halfway there! Nothing too fancy; it's just a clouser in white/brown bucktail with red krystal flash. Probably one of my personally most productive fly.

All the flies are tied and will be enroute this weekend!

Didn't have any blue bucktail to go with the yellow, but I managed to find some blue deer hair I had lying around for y'all Morgantown boys :D Although the only one that matters comes in orange and maroon bucktail :lol:

Why are you tying down your wing behind the eyes too?

I believe that it provides a better profile; it kind of slims it down and it fans out towards the rear, but not as much as if you didn't tie behind the eyes... If that makes sense? :?
