This is a fly I tied at Somerset for a man named Max Birnkammer. www.stillwaterangler.com Max makes some beautiful hand painted hard bodied poppers and is a super nice guy.,....check him out....

Very very very nice fly! One question though, since you use deer body hair, does the fly float or sink? I know it probably won't be fished since its a gift and a gorgeous fly, but was just wondering.

thanks everyone...

Yes it floats

When it is fished.....it falls to one side as if dying...when it's stripped it in it straightens upright for the most part...acting like a dying blue gill...I have a version that I do fish with...It has produced some lunker large mouth

The first one of these I made took a few hours....I make a lot of them now for shows and collectors...They take between 1 2/2 and 2 hours...
