Hare or hare?

Encompassing all aspects of fly fishing, Fishy Steve taught me how to tie a very simple fly. It took a while to get it. I felt like I was doing everything left handed (I am right handed).
We are correcting my mistakes.
Eventually he told me that these would be good ones. And Mojdeh said that this is what she caught her first fish by herself with. The Hare and Copper. Named so because it is made with hare's fur and copper wire.
Hare and Copper number one.
 
All mine.
We sat down for an hour. I made 4 flies and Steve must have made 12. It was a good learning experience and I never have to buy $2 hare and coppers again.
All in one night.
