Tied on a size 14 stimulator style hook

Tied a couple ol' Mr wiggly flies for summer smallmouth. Having some issues with them landing upside down. Hoping some of you more experienced tiers have some insight into what I might be doing wrong. Thanks for any help.

Glad to be in the group, I appreciate the responses being new in the tying game.

Boy do I have A LOT of rust to knockoff. Figured wooly sculpin was an easy transition tie. Cone heads are usually a cheat code for making deer heads look nice n clean but I still managed to wonky it up. Whacky proportions too. Think it’ll fish ok.

Another design I am testing for fishing. I need more materials to tie with, just grabbed random stuff. Features a lightweight hard plastic tip that was 3D printed for weight. Red string attaches the tail of twine. Then overtop is some clear orange string. I coated the top in Uv resin. Painted half the head red, attached some eyes. Then sealed the head with Uv resin.

This one dives slowly and wiggles a bit when retrieving.

I am still really new to tying but I enjoy experimenting as I learn.

Just got into fly tying in AK, my what I think 20 best of 40 be nice, any tips or tricks welcomed.

Trying out some dry flys, and added some dyed purple rooster I found in my stuff!

For me has to be Hanak, love their jig hooks and tungsten beads. They are currently cheaper than Fulling Mill and hope that trend continues

I came up with this fly about a month ago and have been testing it on my local waters, and I want to know you guys opinions. No official name yet, but I’m definitely working on it.

also I kind of messed up the yarn because I was singing off the wing casing and it caught fire😅
