George, I fish a ton with a similar pattern - except I use Moose hair for the tail and make the wing a little smaller and denser. Willi showed me the pattern and it morphed a little at my vise. It's really effective in fast and slow water and that's the best thing about that fly - and it's easy to spot on the water. bruce h Why do you use moose hair for the tail instead of fibbets? Willi |
