I am reminded of the Mary Orvis Marbury (MOM) style flies. Does anyone know what "Ondawa" means?

umm it is a MOM fly

According to Marbury; "The Ondawa is a bass fly, to which has been given an old Indian name belonging to a little river in a valley of the Green Mountains."

Norm, you can post up all the feather wing bass flies you want. That one is a thing of beauty. Gorgeous fly and beautifully dressed. Thank you for posting that.
