Some new tungsten bugs

[dubthethorax]

Here's some bugs I knocked out over the last two nights. Anyone else tying stuff similar to these? I'm always looking for new ideas. I'm really loving this UV quill body material. Feedback is welcome

Very nice ties.

I really like the UV quill body material. I don't have any material but may have to pick some up soon. Those are really nice ties dub, well done.

Great flies Dub...I'll take a dozen! One thing, watch out for tying the body too far down on the bend of the hook because the fish tend to come unbuttoned if you do. The rule of thumb is draw and imaginary line at 45* along the bend and tie down to the point where it meets the hook. Nice flies!

Good point! Never thought about that. Thanks for the feedback.

Nice flys

the beads on some look too large, but you have to know I prefer small beads. Otherwise they look great.
Really like the caddis larvae
