Re: Leisenring Flymphs
Those are amazing. I can't pick a favorite, ...but I do keep wandering back to the Black Gnat. The Iron Blue is a different look that I really like as well.
Re: Leisenring Flymphs
Carl.. looking forward to having them all to drool over on the website. .
Re: Leisenring Flymphs
Thanks again for the comments everyone. I appreciate it. Here is another 4 patterns of Leisenring's favorites. There are 12 all together so I have 3 more. 2 of which are winged patterns.
The Iron Blue Dun - Uses mole and very short jackdaw hackle. Light Snipe and Yellow - Uses buttonhole twist for the body. Tup's Nymph - Uses buttonhole twist for the body with no tying thread underneath, honey dun hackle tip tail, seal thorax and short light blue dun hackle. Pale Watery Dun Wingless - Use natural raffia grass body.

I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Re: Leisenring Flymphs
All spot on, Carl. You should do a frame or shadow box of this set when you finish the tying.

Re: Leisenring Flymphs
Thanks Bill. I tied 4 sets. I had an order for one so I thought I would just do 4. I'll frame 1 and find something to do with the other 2.
