No idea, but if you want an easy way to dress the Griffithïs Gnat;


A newbie should learn how to deal with peacock herl the correct way.
Nothing like the basics. There's a very good description in The Benchside

side to the herl, and you tie it on such that the long side protrudes.

Thanks Scott. I have that book and will reference it when I tie the
Gnat.
