I really like the color, it reminds me of antique carnival glass.
Mike62, now that you pointed that out, I see what you mean. You've inspired a name for this; I'll call it the Fenton's Indispensable, after the first company to produce carnival glass.
Fenton's Indispensable
Hook: Hanak H260BL or Kamasan B160 #14
Thread: pale yellow Veevus 12/0
Mini-tag: turn of bare thread
Dubbing: "Paprika" Jameson's Shetland Spindrift wool pulled out into dubbing mixed with standard SLF #40 Ginger.
Hackle: Whiting Brahma hen Mottled Grey/Pale Yellow
Perhaps I should wait to fish it. If it doesn't produce I'd be surprised; then I would have to call it Fenton's Dispensable!
I fish wet flies with faith and hope, faith that trout don't require exactitude and hope that when my time comes, God will explain why wet flies work...
