Stormwind 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2008 Hello All, I'd like to share a picture of my latest fly. I'm pretty happy with it, although i had a go at a herl head, which is ok, but i think it tends to over power the front of the fly. I did mean for the front body to be a little longer than the rear section but looking at it now, i should have stuck with the straight half and half. Comments and criticisms are always welcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormwind 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2008 Thank you for the kind words. Steelyjim--it's a fly i tied to my own specification. I drew inspiration for a couple of sources, Traherne's Sir Moses being one, but i don't like gold tinsel. Tyrone, Mr Lucas Should recognise the hook, it's one of his!
