I haven't had much time to fish, so I haven't had much reason to tie flies, but instead I took to drawing/painting flies when I get the chance. This is like my 5th or 6th attempt. I'm getting closer, I think, but this one turned out well enough to share. I'm using watercolor pencils.--
I used a plate of bass flies from the Mary Orvis Marbury book for inspiration, but decided it would be cooler if it showed flies I actually fish. For my money, these six flies pretty well cover the area. Whoever did the art in Marbury's book had it easy; Flashabou is a right bastard to draw/paint.
Next I want to do a set of six to eight for the park. I have Mr. Rapidan and a Little Yellow Stonefly. What else should be on there?
