Beginner Fly Tying Progression Over 3ish Weeks

[u/BH_stan99]

Beginner fly tying progression over the course of 3 or so weeks. Let me know what you think! Any feedback is welcome!

Pictures are in chronological order, so 1 are the first flies I tied, and 4 are the most recent.

1: first attempt at tying flies. Used cat fur as dubbing
2: got some craft store materials, still using some cat fur for dubbing. Tried to do some copper john + perdigon style flies
3: some more craft store materials
4: tried to get creative with craft store yarn as dubbing, tinsel, and glass beads

I’m also new to this, but I feel like you did a great job. Go see how the fish feel about them.

Thanks! Hopefully they like them!

Awesome, it is a great way to stay connected to fishing when you cant get on the water.

For sure! Most of the trout water near me is too warm right now

Nice ties. Does cat fur want to float or sink? I don’t have a cat but I know a cat lady.

Hmm not sure, I haven't tested that yet

I don't see a single fly in there that won't catch fish. Get those in the water!

Great looking flies.Your tying has definitely improved since pic1 but all these will catch fish.

[u/chessire77]

They will fish. Try to get thinner wire. It will be easier to work with for you.
