Re: Artistic JazzFlies
Mark, you outdid yourself on that one. The mohair is lovely. The whole fly is beautiful. I must say I find myself staring at the whole back half of your work there....rotflmbo. That to me is supreme. A definite winner here Mark. Bravo Zulu!

OMG I come home from work and find this! If that's what inspiration comes from cleaning your tying room then you should come and clean mine!
Just kidding, I should clean my own tying room.
She's a beaut Mark and I love the name. I don't know how they come to you but this is perfect. She looks like she's gonna launch into outer space.
To the moon Alice, to the moon.

Re: Artistic JazzFlies
Hi Ruard.....actually, i'm not sure how long.....the fly is upstairs, i'm downstairs right now.....but right "off the top" i'm going to guess it's bout 10 inches long.....the hook that is. And yes, the tail is made from the Argus feather you sent me. Now guess what?
Misako and i are going to be at the Dutch Fly Fair in May. So i hope we'll see you there. Misa will continue on from there, to Italy and Slovenia for the WFFC&CS, and i will come back to N.Y. for the Flymph Forum Rendezvous and the Mayfly Club gig after the Dutch Fly Fair. To long a story as to how it all unfolded.....but i've always wanted to do the Dutch Fly Fair.....REALLY looking forward to it. Do you know if Christina (Chevron Hackles), will be there? i'll have to shoot her an email. Thankx Ruard.....
