It's the same weave that has been used in the "Woven Hex Nymph" in the Hatches Magazine and other patterns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loved ALL the flies, but yours was one of those that made me stand up and go search for better lighting. Great stuff. -- Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
