i like this one...little less tail maybe...but it oughta work when the
yellow and light colored bugs are flittin around. perhaps a bit less
hackle, but longer?

I was thinking the very same thing (longer), so I pulled out some
Orvis hooks I had stashed away (hey, I got 'em for less than half-price
when the local shop closed down). These are 2X long hooks for dries
(#1638?), and the proportions look better with them.

I also made a conscious effort to keep the tails smaller, and in the
process, the body is naturally slimmer.

killer...bet it would be great at penns too. hackle and tail still a bit
thick, imo...

man, this is fun! truth be told, i've no idea what will work when you
get here (it's what makes it interesting for me), but this opinion stuff
is awful easy, ain't it. g

Hey, that's what ROFF is all about. At least you didn't tell me
that my ties were "instant classics". :-)
