GO & Landrail

Post by Stendalen » Tue Oct 25, 2011 12:26 pm

Todays tying, playing around with my new materials. A bit long hackle maybe, should have used size 14 hook instead.

Gossamer silk Green Olive no 11, Mink (summer) underfur, Landrail primary feather, Mustad R70 size 16.

Enjoy.

Lovely dressings.
