I thought it would be interesting to start an ongoing thread for pictures of what you are currently tying. I'll start it off with this:

Cheaped out and didn't go for the bugger beast. Made this out of a small tool box last night. Won't last forever but will last this trip. Long way to go to fill it up!

Not my bugger beast, Eric. Simon lent me his for this pike trip because I only had plastic bags big enough.

Great flycasters don't think straight - they track straight.....

If it moves - and shouldn't, use duct tape...
If it's stuck - and should move, use WD40...

Our trout and grayling rivers are opened from April 16th, so I need to tie some czech nymphs.

Nice flies, boys.

Those are very fishy looking emergers, WCB.

There is heavy rain in Prague today, so it is time to tie some wet flies for chubs.

Pike, Are those Hanak hooks on your czech bugs? I bought 2 boxes in size #8 AND #10, and they look pretty good.

I aslo bought some light wire grub hooks from MART, have any experience with their toughness?
We be of one blood you and I.
