Dub-ya, Howdy;

Thanks for that.... it is a nice variance that could mean the difference
between a hook-up or not.

I was picturing you rolling your eyes up at the thought of;

Oh crap ... what's hank going to ask this time...

:D 8-) :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hank, I'm not sure if it makes that much of a difference, but the grouse tail is a nice material to use for nymphs, especially for smaller sizes.

Golden pheasant tail herl has a similar marking for larger sizes.

If I get to it I'll take a pic of the tails. I need to do that anyway.

I wish I had a few of each in my box for this evening. They look like a winning ticket for spring creek fishing. Beautiful flies, William.
