    Slowing down, m'friend? :cool:

    You just need to tie them, I have to tie and video and narrate and edit and export and upload... Get cracking!

    Cheers,

    I'm in my 60s... I can't tie as fast as I once could. Plus, I have a real job that takes up a ridiculous amount of my tying time. They frown on me tying at work :)

    I really like this fly, thanks for posting.

    I'm afraid I've watched way too may Hans videos. Is anyone else now talking to themselves while tying, saying "trim away the waste"?

    I do vary at times and use the word "excess" ;-)
