Me gustan mucho sus montajes, por ello voy a montar unas cuantas brassies para usarlas con un muelle pues creo que pueden funcionar muy bien.Me gustó sobre todo el montaje del abdomen con un único hilo de cobre. Cuerpo y brinca con el mismo material,muy hábil, si señor. Un saludo desde Galicia (Spain)

Looks like some great general purpos nymphs. I think I’ll spend some time tying a few this winter for use next summer.

Thanks and have a good day

This is a great artical, simple fly to tie, and brassies are great for the big bows here in British Columbia. To keep your price per fly down try tying these on Togen Scud hooks.

Very nice work. I love the wide range of colors you tied those in. Simple fly that still works. I like to tie these for kids to use under bobbers on spinning rods, for the same reason that they get down quick. Kids need quick since they often want to just reel the line in before the fly gets down.
