Another big-winged tube (I got a big batch of hair the other day, got to try out different color combinations). I need to go back to filling up my dryfly box again.....

I see you use the drainer cones alot Harvard. How do you find they cast? The turbo cones and monster cones in M and L I have to say I am not overly pleased with and wondered if these lift easier due to the holes?

No problem with the drainer discs that I use, they are quite light and I haven't noticed anything with them as far as casting goes.

Saw a post about Wulff flies a few days ago, and thought I would tie up a few. Haven't needed any hair wing dry flies in a long time, just seeing if I can still do them. The last one is tied with moose body for the wing and tail, and the body is moose main.

I like the hi-vis wing; definitely something to have when tying those smaller sizes.
