That's nice and easier to see how you put it together. I really like those tails, I'm going to have to concentrate to make mine look that good. I don't think any self respecting trout will be a able to resist. Just the ticket!!

Bill,
I am liking this series of "Irish Mayflies". As Always, your tying is fantastic. Do you have some more up your sleeve?
