Re: Ginger Tups
Hans, this is gorgeous. Nice cousin. Do I detect the slightest little bit of a head in there?
Interesting that you stopped wrapping the silk just after the bend began, which allowed that handsome tail. Looks good.

Hans, beautiful! Looks like a wonderful fly to fish during a PMD hatch, or anytime for that matter!

Simply gorgeous, Hans. I've run out of adjectives to describe your flies.
