You sir, are on a roll! Nice ties.
I'm especially fond of the third, nice fly.

Thanks guys, I'm just getting back into the swing of things. I didn't have a stable place to live for a bit and all my tying gear was packed up in containers in a friends basement but I have a pretty sweet set up now and I'm super pumped to be able to spend all hours of the night wrapping stuff on hooks again.
