mutt dog copys and scrap flies

well the snows still falling so sitting in front of the vice with ever lasting mugs of coffee is how its to be for the next few days , so im diging around in the boxes and draws and dawns on me that ive got quite a few scraps of stuff left , you know the sort of thing bits of fur a bit of sparkly stuff and i dont throw anything away as i always think there will be a use for it somewhere along the line .... so todays effort is scrap flies and mutt dog copys

SCRAP SCHULPIN

so i found in a bag a couple of bits of zonker strip and a bit of green sparkly stuff so well had to be a small schulpin made , the thing is it wil be in my box and i may never fish it but i may have the urge to try it (does anybody else get that felling of put that fly on it will catch) and may bring a bonus fish on an otherwise fishless day so im a creature of superstition so it probably will get wet at somepoint ..........stay tuned


MUTT DOGS

not my idea this ken capsey over at http://pikeadventures.blogspot.com posted a couple he had made the other day and i really liked the idea Ive tied similar but ken nailed the design of it so i had to have a few for the box unfortunately i didn't have the colours i needed in marabou so went with just what i had they will still catch fish though , i feel a trip to the tying shop coming on . marabou is such a wonder full medium to work with and is fantastic in the water i really don't know why i don't do more of them , well actually i think i will thanks for the idea ken
