I fish allot of Royal Wulff in sizes 12, 14, 16 and this fly looks very similar but slightly easier to tie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's nice of you to say Moshup- I'm just trying to fill the holes in my fly boxes because the sun isn't really burning out, I mean there will be a spring again right?
