I just ordered some size 10's and a few more 8's. Just finished up my second version I like it and it was a lot easier to paint this way. Should have some pics up tomorrow or friday. A guy I work with wants me to bring in a bunch of different flies, I think if he likes them he's gonna have me tie some for him.Wes917https://www.blogger.com/profile/12019050507724899545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377214633017885915.post-58851257246308197902011-03-30T14:45:14.995-07:002011-03-30T14:45:14.995-07:00Yeah I am using them to fill orders and stock up f...Yeah I am using them to fill orders and stock up for the future. I used J. Sotckard. I ordered the bodies Sunday night and they were shipped on Monday.

I used JS but if there's another supplier that is less for bulk I'd probably get them. I really kinda enjoyed the painting.Wes917https://www.blogger.com/profile/12019050507724899545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377214633017885915.post-43654500093995101022011-03-28T18:41:32.166-07:002011-03-28T18:41:32.166-07:00Cool.

I try and keep my tail the length of the hook. Thats me though. Longer and I find that the panfish tend to nip at it. Like I said, depends on what you are going after.J and M Flieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16235012084948641643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377214633017885915.post-2096744759745945852011-03-28T16:15:54.637-07:002011-03-28T16:15:54.637-07:00Its the Perfect popper body in 8.

I thought the tail might be a little long, wasn't really sure how far I should go with it. The next one is going to be a little different. I plan on painting it the same way but adding some half moons to make it look scaley. Probably end up painting a bunch with differing techniques till I find one I like the best. Painting it this way went quicker than I thought, I do need a better brush I think I could make the color transitions a little smoother with a softer brush.Wes917https://www.blogger.com/profile/12019050507724899545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377214633017885915.post-29566400334870741262011-03-28T16:05:21.761-07:002011-03-28T16:05:21.761-07:00thats a whole hell of a lot better than I can do!thats a whole hell of a lot better than I can do!Dustin's Fly Boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06092709071195192017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377214633017885915.post-48702949518912279942011-03-28T15:56:56.986-07:002011-03-28T15:56:56.986-07:00He looks good.
