Cool Flies of Ebay

In the summertime when the weather is hot
You can stretch right up and touch the sky
When the weather's fine
You got women, you got women on your mind
Have a drink, have a drive
Go out and see what you can find

They look good...a lot of times with realistic flies, they look good but don't do anything in the water...so they don't fool the fish, just the fisherman.. ;)

Agreed, as they usually dont move in the water like the insect they are representing. Good to keep as a display but IMO thats all they are good for. Takes a special talent to tie flies like that though.

I looked at the feedback that he got for the flies from other buyers, and it seems that they might work. But then again who knows  :-\ ?

Whatever, they look cool!  ;D

Those photos on EBAY appear to be drawings, and not the actual flies. Anyway, trout will eat almost anything that's small and it's moves.
