Very clean dressing, Wayne. Fish food for sure. That hackle looks a bit more like furnace to me, but it could just be the thorax giving the list a darker hue. One to copy, as always.

Ron, the color is kind of a "tweener". Not quite furnace, not quite Brown. Good eye my friend.

Wayne,
Talk about your clean and concise and absolutely beautiful set of flies before us! I want to go to the Wayne G. school of tying! Can you schedule me in sometime?

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.

That fly would rock on the Little Mad. Gorgeous tie, Wayne.
