It would be helpful if more people specified what size hook they're using while tying.

It was inevitable... The Tying Police phinally caught up to me...
I'm being detained for "blasphemous tying without thread" and "phly porn"...
'Charges pending...
I am now accepting cakes and pies phlavoured with philes and hack saws...

Barry : it is beautiful. I am truly honoured. Thanks.

Gail.
While I certainly respect your opinion on the positions of the mustard and the lettuce, I personally think it matters very little... Once you (read: I) start chewing it's just tasty! ;-)
Martin
I'm thinkin that the ham should be snuggled right up next to the mustard.....then the lettuce, etc. Mustard and lettuce are not the best taste-sensory mates.
Beautiful streamer Jim. Thanks for sharing it.
Mr. Nicolson... Thanks for the kind words! So many curious things to explore, there aren't enough hours in the day! Cheeeerz!
Martin...

I added a conehead to shift the CG forward and get deeper faster...
'got a little wreckless with peacock herl to better define the profile...

Pete,
Great post!
I'm doing an article on tying BIG flies, and I'll most likely include a couple of your techniques. I'll probably contact you for some details and comments.

nice and easy to tie,thanks for sharing ,i will try it in the down east.
Friends of Lavaguada have to hire a videomaker, and stop doing this awful videos mixed with photos. The fishing spots they show are fantastic, but the videos are crap!!

I take my first trout trip the day after Thanksgiving--this Friday. I'll have this in mind when I make my lunch. Thanks, Martin!
Paul,
Cutting down on the butter here. I love the stuff, but mustard is actually tastier and more healthy. And Coleman's...? Fine for certain things, but I prefer food that's not painful to eat! ;-)

… I have a small favor to ask.
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
