I'm gonna be a little critical here.... They're not in the water! How are you gonna catch fish, if they aren't in the water! They look good! Sorry to see you got hooked...NOT!!!
Fly tier (yeah, I can fly fish...but the fish don't like frothy water!)

Oh and I always like to put a little flash on some of mine say like 80% of my ties have some crystal flash of some sort. +1 A little holographic flashabou or a similar color to match the tails...

Very nice.
I will offer you one tip. Once you're accustomed to the names and colors of various materials, you'll keep more money in your pocket by shopping with Crazy Angler Tackle. I'm guessing at least 50% on the powder paint and approximately $1 or more per bag of neck hackle feathers. Of course you will have a larger selection and you could really come over to the darkside. Hehe.
