Jake373 Posted February 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Thanks the body is actually a section of a paper clip! It still floats with the wing material... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac10 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Good flies, Jake....also you apparently have a flair for the use of materials. There are two books out by Jay "Fishy" Fullum you may enjoy looking through at the bookstore. I happen to have them both, they are called FISHY'S FLIES, and FISHY'S FAVORITES. It's a real variety of approaches and also a variety of materials....for example, he makes a helgrammite body using electrician's tape, a pencil sharpener to form a balsa popper body, and a coffee stir stick to make a Damselfly. Some of the flies use standard materials, others are very creative. They are soft bound books, 8 1/2 by 11 inches and about 1/4 inch thick having about 65 pages each. Hope you come across them sometime, interesting reads. Thanks for posting, Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
