Here are some flies that I added to my fly box this past winter. All are 'home ties'. Some mine, some from friends.

The boy that tied that fly is local and got the pattern from scottyD. The guys on the gulf coast fishing sites rave about that pattern in those colors. Most of these are new to my fly box and haven't been on my rod yet but, I can't remember any of them that doesn't come with positive endorsements from they guys who tied them. |

Very nice flies gentlemen.
My version of the first one posted by Mad_Mike... ps. What are your materials for that fly? Weighted or unweighted? One heck of an EP fly as well!

Yeah looks pretty bright for here, although I saw a crab pattern somewhere that involved some hackle wrapping and some ep fibers, I will tie one when my blue hackle comes in the mail I will post it .... that crab above looks nice

this fly is a little lighter than my crab and works better sometimes when the fish are a little spookier...
It was a killer last year. I'm always workin' on my patterns, and developing new ones.. Ive caught well over a hundred tailers personally on the crab... never hurts to see what else I can come up with to feed em'

| The minnow was kind of a failure. It only wants to swim sideways so it needs a more little work. |

How do you make those fancy eyes Mike? Burn the monofilament and then coat it with something?
Caught my first Chain pickerel today up here in VA on a black M4. That fly kicks a$$

I was practicing spinning deer hair and wanted a tube-like light top water for trout or for the grass flats when the water gets to be too deep. Here is what came out. I've yet to let it float. I should have held off on the bead eyes, maybe. I hope to have a window to fish this weekend.
