The combination hackle is outstanding. Very well done!

Very nice long bodied fly. The double hackle does not over-impose, but gives a nice variegated look.

The two-tone body and hackles are masterfully tied. Looks like an effective, all-purpose flymph that could catch fish anywhere.

A very nice fly. I have thought that some of my own flies have been over hackled,
this fly has given me second thoughts. Very, very good work.

Great looking fly--I often put a gamebird "face hackle" at the front of a lot of my flymphs, but I think I like the looks of your fly better with the partridge closer to the thorax. :)

This is beautifully done and infinitely fishable. Well done.
