Default New to Fly tying. opinions?

Hey ya'll,
I recently just got interested in fly tying and over the last couple nights have tried out a few seemingly easy patterns. Nymphs and leeches imitations..etc.
So....Wutcha think?

I think they will catch fish, I would add a beadhead to a few of the nymphs and the leeches as well. If you are going to be fishing stillwater I would tie up a few chironomids and scuds to.

Very good...most first-time tyers are nowhere near as good. There are a number of excellent tying resources online, as well as step-by-step recipes/instructions for the best Alberta flies. If you want any help, feel free to ask..I am no 'pro', but I have been tying for 30 years now.
