Barney Barnwell Is This Week's Guest Tyer


Traci Barnwell, Barney's wife, shared these great example of Trash Flies with me on our Facebook group and was gracious enough to allow me to share them here. Great examples of being creative with flies and materials.




Hellgrammite Patterns

"Using a rubber band for the body section, then colored in with a permanent marker."

Shrimp

"There is a lot material in this 3/0 fly but the eyes are made with black dress-makers pins.

 They create the perfect 'stalk' in the eye pattern."

A special thanks to Traci and Barney for sharing their flies.
