I've always thought of this as one of those flies that *ought* to look
pretty ragged - the more ragged the better, in my view.

Indeed. There are quite a few flies that do better the more ragged and tatty
they are. It is however very difficult to convince people to tie them like
that!

It's much more fun to tie them neat, and fish them to a state of ragged
effectiveness.

I have always thought that this is an excellent fly for the beginner to tie
because if it is tied pretty, you did it wrong. get them used to flies that
catch some fish for them first and then teach them to tie pretty flies.
