Like the body - a bit flashy, nice color, and buggy. Very nice tie.

WOW! A wonderful fly! That's a fly to fish and no doubt, it'd suck in quite a few. (HEY, thath'd be a good name for a fly--The Vacuum Cleaner--Get to work, Hans, or Tom. :D

THAT is a great looking fly. Well done. Love the dressing and the body flash. Nice work once again.

I like the hackling, it's kind of full and sparse at the same time.

Who is this Tom? All I know is that you are on speed...
