Tying Challenge: Week 2
Hopefully this week we can get more people involved and perhaps some beginning fly tiers. The fly for this week is an old standby that everyone should have in their box and be fishing if they are in the Smokies, the Gold-ribbed Hares Ear nymph and variations of that pattern. Be creative, try something new with this pattern, or if you are a beginner tier, focus on proportion and show us what you've got. Lots of room for creativity here so have fun!

These are all really cool. It would be nice if each fly pic also included a list of the materials used...

Here are a couple of flies I tied up for this weeks theme. The first I will call the Lynn Camp Hare's Ear. Before that stream was closed, this variant of the GRHE was my go to nymph. It has given me some great days on upper LR as well. Only real difference from a standard GRHE is the light colored mallard back...
Hook: #16 TMC 3761 Thread: Tan 8/0 Tail: Hare guard hairs Rib: Medium gold oval tinsel Body: Hare's mask dubbing Wing case: Mallard flank feather, natural white Thorax: Hare's mask dubbing  Here's an experiment I just tied up. I love soft hackles and was thinking about different ways to do one with a bead head. Here's what happened... Hook: #14 TMC 2487 Bead: 7/64 Bronze Thread: Tan 8/0 Tail: Hare guard hairs Rib: Krystal flash, color to suit Body: Hare's mask dubbing (include a little in front of the bead Hackle: Partridge
