I have ALWAYS been partial to green flies. This one's a winner.

Rodger, were the hackle and dubbing dyed at the same time, same way or is that color coordination just well chosen? It's a nice combo for sure.

William -
I didn't dye either material (my wife says I'd only hurt myself). I did compare them under a strong daylight bulb, and they looked like a good match. I got the necks kinda by accident; the shop didn't have the color I ordered, and asked me if I wanted to substitute these. Glad I did.
