My first fly

Just tied my first fly for my first attempt ever. Chose to follow a DVD and made my first wooly bugger. :rockon:

*! It begins. The forever opportunity to pick dead things off the side of the road and make them into things to catch other things. Make yourself crazy... and get a second job, this will cost you. :D :D :D Truly the shear joy of fishing your own flies is great satisfaction. Welcome to our world of feathers, fur and searching the art stores for new stuff. And by the way... WHERE IS THE PHOTO!

Congrats. I tried and failed miserably. No matter what I tied, it looked like a booger. Now you gotta catch something on it.
