One thing I always do when starting something new is to take the most basic idea, then repeat it, and repeat it! This weekend the snow finally started to fall here in Oslo so I got myself some coffee and went through a bunch of sunray shadows just to practice tying on a tube and to see how they come out in the end.
All tubes have white/black Temple Dog and peacock on top of the wing. Can’t get much simpler than this, but it makes for a very good practice since this (apparently: I haven’t fished with them yet) is a very good pattern
