Traditional Flies
Most of the flies I tie are those for the beginners and intermediate classes taught by the RRTU fly tying classes. There are some true classics such as the Hare’s Ear Pheasant Tail that were developed in Europe many years ago. (testing fonr here)
In a search on the Internet for the origin or the Hare’s Ear, our own Tom Adams and Alen Baker have researched and written the best article I have seen on the Hare’s ear, and Tom has tied a great example of the Gold Ribbed Hare’s Ear... directly below

Here is a link to the RRTU site about the GRHE. Read the details. https://www.rockyrivertu.org/blog/gold-ribbed-hares-ear
Below are some of the flies I like to tie and consider good ones for Beginners. Tom has tied and written about most of these and will in due time, provide me with the information to include it on these pages.
