My kinda fly! I'm a sucker for a curved hook and lots of "buggy".
Outstanding tie.

Nice fly I think I would fish it in Fox Squirrel and brown phase Partridge as well.

Yet another outstanding combination of materials and colors. The ribbing adds just the right amount of bling.

Thanks everyone. I just find these buggy flies very satisfying.

Agreed. You can get a couple shades from a Fox Squirrel hide and a darker mix with a darker hackle would be nice to have in the box as well.
Thanks again.
