Well I cut this body too thin and wanted to see if I could still tie one that looked OK. I got too much hackle and it's too long so I cut it some after this pic, but other than that what do you think? I made the eyes and antenna.
Looks good to me Skip.......... I went on Flyfishing trip 2 weeks ago check out the pics in the flyfishing thread...
Man that looks like a great time, but as I said in that thread my broken down body will not let me do things like that any longer. Heck I can't even take out my own brush by my self any more. If I could I would be a guide again, but them days are long gone for me.

It is a heck of a thing. I do get to fish a good bit and I tie my jigs and flies, but man am I limited from what I once was. Can't sit too long and sure can't stand long, can't lift much. I do enjoy life still, but it's heck that I can't do what I want. Like putting out brush, I have to get help and that is the pits. I also hate getting my wife to do the heavy stuff around here!
