That's a beauty............prolly work GREAT as an imitation for this gorgeous Mayfly i captured yesterday on the Gunnison............two tails, bout a size 12..........looked just like some species of sulpher..........with light olive wings. We've got pics....................later.
Fished the Gunnison today...............got skunked.
Plenty of fish in the river though..........i just suck.

Hey Bill, that's a cool little fly. I love the sizing of the herl to the size #18 hook. Great combo and color scheme. I see you gave yourself a little room with the hook length. Looks great.
