Hook: #8 Allen 2302
Tag: Blue Flash FTD
Body: Grey Flymaster 6/0
Rib: Blue Flash FTD
Abdomen: Peacock Herl
Collar: Blue Short Cock Hackle
Saw the flash, wanted to try it as a rib or body...went well with the grey flymaster so rib it was. Threw a blue hackle into the mix and then that @#%@% song from 5th grade French class started in my head..."bleu, bleu, lamour est bleu"...Someone shoot me...it won't stop!!!!!!!

Nice fly and great colour combo..... now just start thining "Blue Suede Shoes" or "Blueberry Hill" like Richard Cunningham's favourite swooning song and you will be all good again!

at 12 years of age I was able to 'cover' the bass parts.
Music teacher wouldn't let me sing as she had no bass parts
for me to sing. I was just to stand there and mouth the words... bummer
Probably one reason why I don't have much apperication for music......

Lovely fly, Murray. How do you like working with the Allen hooks? Have you fished with them? I'd appreciate hearing feedback on them, as I have been thinking about buying some to play around with. The price is certainly very attractive...
