Those are some great looking flies! I really like the sasaki kebari. Also really like those Akita hooks. The price, about $2.50 USD per 25, is also very nice. A large order would offset the $10 shipping. Hum.......

These are very cool.
Are we sure they're legal?
Thanks for a highly interesting display of tying virtuosity.
Not too fussy, simple, and buggy as hell.
I wonder, are you our first participant from Poland? Great to have your distinctive flies joining our international conversation. If you have any photographs of the water you fish, please let us see!
You have a nice logo Artur. Are you a graphic artist by any chance?

Welcome aboard Artur. Your last name wouldn't be Buczkowski, by any chance, would it? If so, I know you work from the Fly Tying Forum. Lovely flies. I look forward to seeing more of your creations in the future.

Very nice pair.
Really like that Heron herl pattern. That is one not a lot of our American friends will be able to tie.

Nicely attractive pattern. Looks like you coated over the peacock as well. I don't know that I have seen anyone do that before. Would definitely strengthen it, but at the expense of movement.
