The hackle is beautiful, Vivki, regardless of how it got tied in.

Vicki, this is really a nice pattern. I've never tied a Tenkara fly, but I plan to. This looks great, compared with others that I've seen. Great combination of materials and great execution.

Thanks W. It's still a work in progress. Bill sent me the link for the tenkara usa website. I had been in there before but missed the video showing how to tie a tenkara fly. Turns out even though I was thinking backwards it wasn't backwards enough!

I'll try again.
Oh and thanks Bill. I can see another addiction forming!

From what I've seen of your previous "addictions", I'm sure you'll master this one as well
