I went to the little lehigh today to try out some flies that i tied as i just started tying about two weeks ago

I landed four today 2 rainbows and 2 browns
caught two on a hares ear variation
one on a olive woolly bugger
and another on a midge pattern
 
Wow. That can be some tough water down there. Looks like your flies meet the trouts approval and that's all that counts:) Nice fish:)
 
Nice job Lilko! Welcome to the world of fly tying - it's a great feeling catching trout on the first flies you've tied.
 
Well there you go! Another potential golfer derailed.
 
No i will still get my golfing in
just have to learn to split the time
 
Congrats !!!!! Awsome feeling ain't it. How many flies have you tied since ?
 
Congratulations! Once you know you can do it, you will put your own creations on with the same confidence as any $2 fly.

You should see some of my first ties that caught fish. You wouldn't want to be caught dead with them on the end of your tippet.
 
I am willing to bet the golf clubs start collecting dust.... try tying some smallmouth bass flies... then you will be hooked. The spring hatches will flow into smallmouth fishing in the summer... then when things cool off in the fall you will be back to the trout! This is how my years go...i haven't even looked at my "sticks" since '04!
 
Congratulations! That's a great day on you first ties.
