great tie but like was mentioned before try getting some white biots it will even it out a bit better

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading".--Thomas Jefferson

 

There is no such thing as a blank day for a fisherman. It will be saved for him by the white-throated weasel, who watches his fishing from a hole in the wall under which is lying a fish that refused all flies; or by the excitment of identifying insects; or by the apple-bloosom in a nearby orchard; and no one would call that day a blank on which he has seen a king-fisher." -- Arthur Ransome Rod and Line, 1929

I agree about the biots. Couple of other things, I would change, the wing pads just use turkey tail like the back. I like my stonefly nymphs on a 3 or 4 xl hook. I have 4 xl hooks all the way down to a size 14 just for that reason.

As for biots, I have lots of biots. White brown, yellow green black. PM me your addy and I will send you some.
