Clive,

You sure that bottom one is not an olive and white clouser? I hate to challenge one as knowledgeable as you, but seems pretty obvious to me.

 

Oh and Kevin, please drop off a bunch of those red pts, size 16, off at my house. Preferably before tomorrow.

Here's some versions I tie. Sorry for the bad photos. Don't make mine look as fancy as your guys' but they seem to do the trick

 

Red pt w/ red or black wire

Green pt w/ Chartreuse wire (this one worked extremely well pre-runoff/runoff in sz 12!)

Here is my version of a red pheasant tail....after hearing about Kungfool catching 30+ fish the two days ago I rushed to the bench to tie such a fly. Of course, I found myself without any red dyed pheasant tail so I improvised, red thread, red wire, and a red marker. I was quite surprised at how much redder this turned out than a normal fly.

 

Rickr, you might want to try this fly also, I have proof that it catches whities.

 

Dryfly, I was fishing your version of a pheasant tail and caught a nice brown....unfortunately they did not seem to like the "real thing" as much as the imitation red pheasant tail.
