Great pictures!

Someday I hope to get around to taking some pictures like that, of local
insects.

Always amazes me when looking at such pictures, that the flies tied to
imitate such creatures are so dissimilar to the originals, and yet still
effective.

Great pictures!


I agree.

imitate such creatures are so dissimilar to the originals, and yet still

Just because something looks similar to our eyes, doesn't mean it looks
similar to a fish's. When we try to use our eyes and our brain to decide
how another species is going to perceive things, lots of erroneous stuff
is going to crop up.

Here ya go Mike, but I honestly doubt that many of these would fish very
well G

Yeah, I have seen quite a few realsitic flies. These are very good inded.

Never done any good with them myself, and they also take too long to tie,
although "construct" would be perhaps a better description. I prefer
generic impressionistic flies for fishing.
