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!!!!!!! :x

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...
