Crayfish FlyArt
Continuing to reach for pencil and paper this week I have drawn my first fly. For the critical eye of the expert fly tier all materials involved may have better substitutes.
However, I am a true believer of the old infantryism that claims ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.’. For me this crayfish pattern has worked. So while it works I will not soon fix it. (Maybe a tweak to flip the hook.)
Luckily, I still have the fly shown here- my first attempt at the vise. So much of fly fishing is becoming art for me. This little piece I would like to share with you.
See you on the high ground,

“So much of fly fishing is becoming art for me.” – Then you are getting to what fly fishing is really all about! There certainly are more effective ways to catch fish.
Thanks Dave. What I like about it is that I’ve never been into a hobby this much before. Also, this hobby is bringing back old hobbies- like simple sketching and drawing. And yes, dynamite in a lake is a much more effective way to fish. Agreed. Thanks!
