Handsome winged wet fly Norm. Especially nice work on the body taper and setting of the wing.
I'd be more tempted to frame this fly, instead of fishing it. Bum trout will just chew it up...

In my next life I want to come back with Norm's sense for proportions. Beautiful tie, Norm.

Norm,
This pattern scratches the itch that I have for wonderful, beautiful and down right functional fishing tool! So well crafted too! Jungle Cock never looked so good anchored to your good tying!
Sorry so late in noticing these dandies!
