I've posted this pattern before...except this time no subs. The materials are all the real thing. The hook is a 3/0 Ronn Lucas, Sr. Noble S. I like the proportions of the hook for this fly, hence the choice of what to use. And as I usually do when photographing a fly it is in the unpreened state. It has since been cleaned up and mounted. By taking the picture in this way it gives me a close look at what needs to be done to make the finished fly look the way I'd like. As always...comments and thoughts are welcome. Cheers, George Wow George, just wow! I'm glad your back to your bench. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
