Gotta agree with gig - good looking fly, and very impressive photography.

Thanks Martin. I've got some of that colour Pearsall silk, I had forgotten about it.
I have some larger size hooks very similar. :? ;)

Martin, killer pics and a sweet fly. The CdL really does just beg to be played with. The marking is so striking. Nice combo.
