Great fly Davy!!! Looks like it has a light on the back.

 

Lonewolve,

 

I also swing the NY tribs, try tying on tubes for the bigger flies. I also find the smaller hooks hold better in the fight

I still like to tye the bigger hooks, but I primarily fish stingers on my larger flys, usually size 4 hooks or 6's. Winters anyway. But atleast one of the boxes I would open on the river is full of 1/0,2/0,4/0 speys and the like. We get limited to 3/4" as well here. And floating lines on some rivers and times of the year.
