All the H&L Variants I've ever seen (mostly tied by Jim Lafley and Jim
Turcotte my mentors) were standard fly dimensions, not using oversized
hackles. Did the House and Lot original use Catskill Variant dimensions?
The following is an H&L variant tied by Pat Barnes, who died in
1997, at the age of 88 or so. I'm not sure when he first offered
these in his West Yellowstone store (now Bob Jacklin's place)
but it was a long time ago.
