I signed my first contract to tie 40 dozen flies for a shop!!!!

Today I faxed my first contract to tie 40 dozen flies for a shop. I really needed this due to low funds and on disability.  I was really happy because now I can take what I love and send them to someone that can catch some fish on my creations. Here are the samples I sent last monday to show the shop what I can do.

This fly might look weird but it is called a emunator. It is a leech pattern I came up with last fall. It is a marabou tail, olive body, and the back end of and emu feather. It made a real buggy leech that they liked.

Here is a cool pattern I came up with 2 weeks ago. I called it the double threat. It has two hooks and a double bead made all out of marabou. It is legal to fish just cause the 2 hooks are not considered one. If that makes sense. The hooks are attached with mono and has amazing movement in the water. It is hard to see the 2 hooks but the last pic shows the movement it would have and how flexible it is

These are not all the flies I am tying. I am doing some dries and some local favorites as well
