Excellent fly. I love seeing flies that aren't super difficult to construct tied to absolute perfection; this is an excellent example of this.

jordo Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Excellent fly. I love seeing flies that aren't super difficult to construct tied to absolute perfection; this is an excellent example of this. Thanks, it is a pretty easy tie, I've shortened up the tail on my newest ones (they'll get field tested tomorrow) here's hoping it fishes well. Looking forward to seeing what other variations others come up with, and a big thanks to Maxwell for organizing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
