Great flies!! What is the wing case on the first one? I think I will tie up a variation with some with gold holographic tinsel.

It is Black holographic tinsel. I tie them with Gold or Copper holographic as well

Would you be willing to do a tutorials for these patterns? I’d like to see the tying sequence needed to create such perfect proportions/profiles.

Thank you for the compliment.

No, split shot has been my friend for decades. No need for adding weight.

Sometimes I add a brass bead, some times I slip the bead on the tippet above the fly. Never for weight, just for flash.
