Thanks! I'm pretty sure it's a Mustad standard dry fly hook in size 8.

Thank you! Sorry I've been away for so long. I was finishing my PhD and started a new job. It feels like the past week is the first I've had any personal time since the spring. I missed most of the fishing season, but it feels great to be back at the vise.

Thanks, flytire. You're definitely right. In the picture I was using the underwing wasn't really visible.

Thanks! The head is spun deer belly hair. I bought two patches, the other was much coarser.

KimoThanks, Kimo!
Your PTR Game Changers have inspired me to get some articulation spines in my next order.
