More intruders

Tied another one, purple this time.

I'm finding that i'm lacking a lot of feather materials such as hackles and saddles of different sorts.
The flies are all right but not all the way there.

New flies for Stockholm

Inspired by a picture one of my co-fishermen in Stockholm sent me i tied up a couple of colourfull big ones for the cold waters of Scandinavian winter.

So here's my first try on intruders, did a couple of different colours with and without chain eyes.
I like the aestetics of these big gaudy bugs.
Not your classic nor contemporary hairwings but a good way to get to use some of those seldom used materials, fun combinations and go nuts with colours.

Orange. Best one in my opinion.
Went for a more "dirty orange" look and added some black.

Blue and silver with chain bead eyes.
