I received a really nice order about a week ago and wanted to give a shout-out for it. It was for three 5×7 Framed Flies and was shipped to a customer in the State of New York. This was one of the larger orders I’ve had and definitely the largest one in the recent past.
As I mentioned, the order was for these three frames and they all looked very nice with the gold parchment and the black frame color.
I really like the Pink Lady in the lower right corner of the Classic Wet Fly Collection but all of them look good. I also like Hardy’s Favorite in the lower left corner. It’s one of my favorites too. The Ozark Mottled Oak primary turkey wing feathers make for nearly perfect wings on wet flies. Those feathers are just a little stiffer and thus easier to tie in than other feathers used for wings.
In Bass Fly Collection I really like No. 255 Jungle Cock fly – the wings are made of two flank feathers from a jungle cock bird and the white stem line really looks unique to me,
In the Trout Fly Collection it’s hard not to like the No. 143 Grizzly King in the upper right corner. That one turned out really nice on this frame.
Also like the gold paper/parchment and black frame..classic old time look. Nice tying…and congrats on awards.
