Here's another example of combining a (Hans van Klinken) Bondal-style throat with a straightforward Pink Finn Marabou 'Spey' pattern.

 

I especially like this fly because it has a very simple, uncluttered grace and flow to it,...almost like Japanese calligraphy or a Samurai sword.

Great looking bug that looks like it is just wants to go for a swim!! Are you using yellow or chartreuse behind the blue?

1morecast,

 

I used a stripped plume of white Marabou in the body followed by (2-3 turns) of Yellow and Silver Doc Blue Marabou behind a collar of KF Blue hen hackle.

 

I think it'd still be a pretty (and effective) fly if you were to substitute the yellow for chartreuse or a light 'lime' green, though - especially for Dog Salmon.
