    Looking good!

    Why not use the lessons everyone learned the weaving from?

    Here is what you do, click on this.... http://flyanglersonline.com

    Then click on Fly Tying, then click on Advanced Tying and choose the kind of weave you want!

    This is where I learned the weave tying and started the whole thing years ago. I still have to go back to these lessons to refresh my mind when I tie weaves since I don't do it much any more.

    I reference Fly Anglers Online in my post. I have reviewed those lessons many times and always look back at them but I learn easier by watching a video. Actually one of the easiest to understand the weave is from another guy tying the fly. Good stuff, hopefully one day mine will look as good as the ones they do. Good thing the fish don't care.....lol. Actually I don't use the weave for my normal fishing jigs. Just quick and easy, does the job. This was just messing around.

    Nice work Dave, good colors too. I’ve tied some winners out of random pieces of material left over or laying around on the desk.

    Did another go at the weave but this time did it a little different where I cut the thread to do the weave then tied back on. Not sure about this. Definitely made weaving easier but sort of hassle to tie back on and possibly not as secure. Anyway more ammo for me to use.

    Those looking good to me. Crappie ought to tear them up... Yes it is easier to tie after tying off and cutting thread. I found turning vise towards me when weaving helps a lot two.

    It’s ok, not exactly what I want but good enough. I doubt fish will be as picky as we can get sometimes. Have some more ideas running around in my head if I can ever find time to try them. Thanks
