Both

Both

Well the 1st one is on the wall in our bedroom and the old lady is sleeping. She'd be pissed if I turned the light on at the moment.

The 2nd one isn't remotely ready to take pics of, but I can take pics of a couple flies that will be going in there?

It's difficult to display any tying skill when tying these classics. Theyre just too simple to look sophisticated.

I can show you some nice flies I've tied over the past few years

Check out.......

www.globalflyfisher.com
www.flytierspage.com
www.flyanglersonline.com

Between those 3 sites, you should be able to find any pattern you're looking for.
I often browse through them, looking for ideas & such.

I'm out of polar bear fur but I'd like to tie up some of those

What works below Table Rock dam (Lake Taneycomo/White River) is really mundane.

Scud (fresh water shrimp?) imitation. Size 16-24. Gray or brown depending.

I have to get the son in law to thread on the really small ones. Shaky geezer can't see.

I have no polar bear myself, but I find skunk a real close substitute.
Don't have much of that left either, but I should have enough for a couple of those.
