Eric, this was along the lines that I was thinking of swapping. I decided to stick with the larger size 10's I originally posted.

Hook- 3906B, size 16
Thread - UTC70, Tan. If I was swapping this I would have used Uni 8/0 Tan. It's a tad darker
Tail - Hen Hackle, Brown
Abdomen - Clear Midge Tubing with a Brown wire core
Thorax - Hares Mask (cheek section)
Collar - Light speckled hen

Holy Cow, DUBBN, that's exceptional. All that material on a size 16 and it looks that good. Well done.

That's a good looking fly. I'm really partial to the body, that effect with the wire inside tubing looks great.
