if u cant fish - you can tie flies

With trailer soon to be stripped of good parts, then all the rusted struts, cross beams and other bits cut up with 9" grinder and sent off to the tip
Also not forgetting the boat high and dry at the side of the house

Means no fishing for me for a while

So I might as well tie some flies and while watching catch up TV

Today, I am tying some clousers with a skirt of calf tail around the tail material to assist in less tail wrap of this craft fur
Added a two pronged mono guard as well, as last time out i needed tiny white clouser to be cast right into snag territory and I didnt have a single one with a weed guard
So I am tying up 25 of them today
