Anyone else addicted to sex dungeons? 😜

Figured out how to spin deerhair heads and it has made all the difference. The dubbed heads just sink a little too fast.

  Glad to be a fly tyer and know what I was going to see.  Dutch be very ready to see the T&A rainbow and the butt monkey!

I'm not really a fan of any of Galloup's patterns, or any very complicated ties; I'm  more of a Blonde or Deceiver type. The only deer hair fly I tie is Tap's Bug. 

Even though I laughed at Dutch, if you search "sex dungeon" you'll likely get houses for sale or rent ahead of the Slide Inn listings.

I was a bit hesitant to get into the big stuff and complex ties but these are a snap now that I have an idea what I'm doing. I like them mostly because they sink below the surface quickly but don't just drop and they have a lot of movement. Easy to cast and retrieve as well.

It's not about the size, a Deceiver built with 6-8 saddle hackles can be pretty large, it's more about KISS in designing. (and in fishing)  I don't mind if others like complicated patterns or patterns that require unicorn hair, I just said I'm not a fan. I do admire the workmanship.

I try not to fix what ain't broke, I used to tie lots of more complicated flies, subscribed several flytying (all of the ones sold in early '80s) magazines and was always buying new materials to try the latest invention, but starting in the early '90s I began simplifying and have since thrown out over a bushel of crappy materials that were purchased for flies that  after the initial dozen I never tied again. I don't tie as hobby and never have, I tie only for fishing and  keepin it simple is a rule. An ideal fly would use three materials and take three minutes to tie. I also have a short attention span and if I started on something that complicated, by the time I got finished it would have wheels and a propeller.

I tie only stuff I ise as well . the deer hair os from a deer we shot and I always have maribou. I work on them in my spare time . I get the simple thing though. Nothing beats a bugger or closer.
