Joe,

That fly looks like a dandy!

I'm going to get some tied up and try them out on some B.C. Rainbows in the next couple weeks or as soon as the lakes are ice free.

Will let you know how they do out here.

Very sleak pattern Joe...A wooly bugger on Weight Watchers :D

 

The hackle palmering IMO is perfect. Did you wrap front to back, or back to front?

 

Later. SullyTM

I tie the feather in by the tip just in front of the body material, and spiral forward. I have had my best luck with buggers using strung saddles and a uni stretch body even slimmer than this. I also usually add another saddle collar, here I just continued the feather for a collar.
