I especially like that hackle, both the color and the set. And the tippet tail is exactly the right length.

This is the second time I've noticed the Glister material in the list. I love the look of that shine in the dubbing.
I quickly figured out it was a Veniard product, and that it is difficult/impossible to find in the USA. Our cousins to the north have it, though.

Great looking fly, Hans, as always. Thanks for showing it to us.
