For us in North west, this is the time to sit down and stock up on the flies we will need for the following year. Specially this year with all the single digit temps and minuses.
I thought it would be fun to see what everyone is tying. And for those tying everyday or weekly, a follow up on it.
Even those that don't tie...WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SEE TIED?

I'm taking a tying class and tomorrow night we tie the clouser. I have a saltwater outing to San Diego next month so it should come in handy. There's a variation of it called the Liberace Clouser (tan over orange with krinkle flash and flashabou) that worked well for some people last time I was there so I'll be trying a few of those as well.
Otherwise, it looks like I need to concentrate on the basic PT's, Hare's Ears, Midges, and soft hackles until I get the hang of the main tying techniques. Plus they all fish well when I go to the Eastern Sierra's in the winter.

They fish good anywhere, that is what is cool about the good old stand bys...just size difference.
Clouser can be great. So many variations and material choices. I have some FAKE bucktail that works well other than not as long as some bucktail.
