Old streamers

A lack of fishing time had me tying some flies to possibly frame. These are my first attempt at some old style streamers.

    Hi Normand

    It was while browsing your excellent blog that I decided to tie these up, so the inspiration came for there, and is why they look similar but not as well tied. I am going to tie a few more like the ones on your site and frame them.
