Default Abbey Fly

Have not been around for a month. I have taken some advises to revise
my pattern a little bit even though some advises are too harsh. I am
just a beginner of fly tying. Hope my new pattern would not let this
group down. If you are interested, you could visit
http://www.versacorp.cn/picImg/Abbey-Fly-Big.jpg to see my new
pattern.
Pattern name: Abbey Fly
Fly hook: Same as Mustad 539 10#
Thread: Black
Wings: Pheasant barbs tied over the body
Tail: Golden pheasant tippet barbs
Ribbing: Fine gold tinsel
Body: Red floss
Hackle: Brown tied on as a collar

It's never been clear to me just what you're all about.

Are you a beginning tier tying flies for personal use
or are you looking for a free critique of a commercial
offering ?

If the former, nice looking fly. If the latter, you
can go to hell and take your overdressed fly with you.

It would not matter to you which was the case, you would abuse the guy
anyway. It is your nature to do so. You are so obnoxious that even the
spammers stay away from this group nowadays.

For a beginner the fly is not too bad. However, asking for advice on
flies here, is a waste of time. As you have seen you will be treated
mainly with abuse. If you really do want information on how to tie
better flies, post again or send me an e-mail and I will give you some
links.

If you are a spammer, then donīt bother as it would be quite
pointless.
