This past weeks tying

So it's Sunday again and still waiting for the ice to leave the lake so I can get out and try out some of these new flies I've tied. It was cold last week so we didn't have much melt. Also excited about trying out the new fly rod I got for my birthday last week. Got one of the new Access rods from Orvis. It's a 9' 6 weight for the small mouth around here. Also put one of the new Access mid arbor reels on it. Seems like it's going to be a sweet rod!!
Here are a few examples of the types of flies I tied. Got to decide what I will concentrate on this week.






My wife got me an Oasis fly tying bench which is great. Now I can move around the house and tie where I want. Sit in a comfortable chair and put it on my lap and tie away.
