Ray,
You have proved that it is indeed possible to turn the single wing up using your (I know it came from another tier as in your original post) really cool method of both winging and hackling the pattern in one smooth operation! The finished patterns (wingless included) look fantastic! Very lifelike!
Your post above is quite awesome! I like how you lay out the materials and methods in a very pleasing manor! Wow!
More of your good stuff please,
Doug

Both look fantastic. One to fish with a dead drift and the other to swing.

Yes, I quite like them.
