Hi David,

Nice elegant tie there, particularly like the orange hotspot behind the hackle. Have you managed to fish it yet? If so, what were the results?

Hi Alistair

Thanks for the comments. Unfortunately I have not been able to get out yet to try it. I am restricted to buses as I am no longer able to drive (health reasons). Am waiting for the schools to go back before I venture forth. With all my ‘Lockdown’ tying I have quite a few flies to test! :D

Hi David

If your lockdown flytying is anything like mine, you have months of experimentation to look forward to! Enjoy
