Oh - it's so cute and fluffy! I'm sure my daughter could find a way to integrate it into her American Girl Doll world! haha
How do you make the head on something like that? I need to visit a fly shop and learn about adding beads and eyes. With any luck I'm getting me a hand-me-down fly tying kit today to go with the other hodge-podge pieces.
Those are some nice browns indeed. Almost looks like you'll need a bigger net! Keep that up!
You didn't say where you were fishing, and I fully respect that. Just curious in a general sense - what part of the state you're working.
I poked around some rivers pitching some spinners mostly. Did hook up a nice fiesty brown out on the west side of the Valley - in the Logan. Yesterday I hit first dam, and there was LOTS of activity. Had a few chases on my spinner, but barely a knock. Tried a few other options - some joe's flies, even salmon eggs. The bows there were busy slurp-slurping something. Maybe it's high time I bust out a fly rod and do it "right"!
So - do you tie you own streamers?
