Fly tying rules: in or out?
 

From: "Da"

| 2 day ago, I posted a new pattern. Here is the pattern link http://
| www.versacorp.cn/picImg/Adams-Big.jpg . I have got some feedback about
| my pattern.
|
| ----The fly is not tied true to the accepted pattern, the proportions
| are wrong, and it should be tied in sizes 10 to 20. Other than that,
| it's perfect.
|
| ----Often it's more important that -I- can see the fly than to make an
| exact match - the fish don't mind.
|
| I have a question to ask whether we should strictly follow the tying
| rules or just use your imagination to tie what you want to tie and
| have fun. You know, even some patterns I have seen do not follow the
| rules but they still could catch fish. So what are your comments?
