I did well with this pattern yesterday on a new to me section of river and one of its feeders, fooling a few rainbows and brookies.  No fish pics as I left my net in the car.   

Love the plueger 1492

Triple Threat and earlier Mayfly Brown both very buggy.  Sure they fish well.

Love the scraggly, scruffy look of this one. This is what makes a fly come alive under water.

Thanks, TF.  Grease it up and fish it on the surface, it does well too.

Agree, I'd like to pick up one more, but those little ones with the sculpted pillars are hard to come by.

Been working on a large donation patch of Northern Pike flies for our MGTU fund raiser in Feb 2021.  Here's a couple fresh out of the vice. Tied on 5/0 Owner Straight Shank Worm Hooks.
