Great looking fly! I really like your split thread technique. Probably the best I have seen. Very well done sir!

Rasevic - Can you explain how you form the body of this fly? Is the body hackle tyed onto the hook before inserting into the split thread? Or is it just inserted along with the dubbing?
Gorgeous flies.

Oh man, that's cool. I'm looking forward to hearing the construction of this too. Great pattern, especially over that red thread. Very compelling.

Cicvara,
Yum! Absolutely stunning patterns! Some call this a "palmer" style of hackling? I just can't get enough of how wonderful this series looks. William is right! The red is awesome. Have you tired other colors? Have you felt the need to try other colors? Red is usually a great color to attract the fishes!

-Thank you all for watching and comments.
-Rey, first put up the body,tie a feather,dubbing in the split thread, and then wrapped together feather and dubing,palmer through the body.
-Body color can be any.

Thats a cool looking fly and I love it's buggy look. That will have to be a great fish catcher
