salt water patterns
 

I have been fishing for 45 years, but only started fly fishing ( Salt water)
up North of West Australia.
Anyone out there know of a cool salt water fly tying site I can go to learn
some basic tricks?
Just started to tie my own patterns a couple of months ago and would like to
learn a few tips from experienced fishers, i.e. I'm finding difficult to
attach eyes to deceivers, also is there an easy way to tie a Prawn pattern,
I have tried one from a book but it involve body dubbing and I will be damn
if I can do that yet...
cheers

Here's one I found last fall while preparing a trip to Las Salinas in
Cuba to fish the flats and rivers:

WA

Joseph,

http://www.sal****erflyfishing.com.au/ has a forum page
as do the WA salt water flyrodders (www.sal****erflyrodders.com/)

It's worth registering for the first ... the second may have some use
too being local for you.

Eyes on deceivers: Noting that the original pattern didn't have eyes,
what Type of eye are you experiencing difficulty with? (A white
deceiver, eyes or no, is a good all round bet btw).

Prawn Patterns: see the fly database on the first link above.

(BTW: It's not a good idea to publish your address in public)
