This is the fly I tyed in the virtual tying class earlier tonight. Man, how does one get used to tying in front of people??? Let alone a worldwide audience?
Anyway, I dressed the fly with the traditional Dee throat of Jungle, But...within minutes I had pulled it out, having decided it took"away" from the rest of the fly. Let me know.
Thanks to Ronn and the gang, for letting me "invade" , hair and all , it was delightful and hope I may return.
Fly is loosely based on a famous NW pattern named the "Spawning Purple" I believe attributed to Dave McNeese or possibly John Shewey. I know these are colors that work for the Santiam river here in Oregon, regardless.

Really nice, Davy. 
You didn't look nervous when you were tying. I would be too I guess.
I hope we can compare tying notes or do some fishing now that you're in the neighborhood.

Great fly Davy!!! You didn't look nervous at all. Personally, I liked the JC on it but this is good too. Don't feel that you were invading! We're just a small group of folks who like to tie flies. Nothing fancy or elite by any stretch.
