That is a good one, should fool the trout OK.

Great pattern gig. I think ostrich is very under utilized. That pattern should catch trout anywhere.

Very nice proportions and profile, gig. That should look very buggy in the water.

Nice fly to start the year Gig. That Ostrich herl is going to give some real life to the pattern.

Gig, this is a nice tie for sure. I like your color scheme. On that size of hook you might get away with twisting two shades or colors of ostrich together. This one is full of action.
