For the non-tying, non-fly fisher, the flies shown are generally called a ‘wet fly’ and presented subsurface from just below the water’s surface and deeper. For the tier…these were tied on a size 14 stout hook, but the body was reduced in size for a smaller fly on a bigger hook. The ribbing should have been a bit finer in thickness, but the segmentation does pop with the lighter colored ribbing. How does my life line look?
I have analysed your palms and I see that there are many subsurface caught trout in the years to come. If you keep fishing, your lifeline will extend well into the future. You will meet a tall dark handsome stranger and tell him to tie his own wet flies and to keep his sticky fingers out of your fly box. I also foresee that when you hook one of those flies in your palm you will revise your opinion and start taking the barbs off them. 🙂 Hell this palmistry stuff is a piece of cake.. astrology next..
