I agree Jens, it is a simple yet elegant little guy. Too often hairwings are tied with too much hair, so I very much enjoy seeing your hairwing posts since you tie them so well :thumbsup:

with too much hair, making them stiff,

Tis a nice pattern. Reckon it would go well in Tasmania on the sea trout in smaller sizes
