Wayne, another really nice series. I still need to play with the wire in the tube option. Seems the more I see that the more compelling it is. That and the wing case are very interesting. Of course I'd fish these just based on your handling of the thorax and hackle alone. It's hard to go wrong and you always seem to strike just the right note. Nicely done.

Wayne,
Great tying. Interesting how the reflected light on the midge tubing wing case resembles a bubble.
