Nicely done. The first is a favorite on mine on the water.

A fitting tribute to a giant in our field and flawlessly done, Vern-O.

Vern, I'm really digging your Nemes flies. I recently read the"imitations" book where he used that synthetic tail to such an advantage and discussed the calli imitations. These are wonderful examples.

Sweet looking trio, that Mothers day caddis is a heck of a tie.
