I like it. It's well proportioned, tied on one of my favorite hooks and looks buggy as all get out. Bet the fish will love it too.

I love to see your creations for two reasons -
1. Obviously, the wonderful workmanship that goes into the construction of the fly.
2. I love to guess what fruit of vegetable is involved. (OK, is that a pepper??)
As always, a clean, crisp tie beautifully done, and a superb photograph.
Thanks for posting.

This one is right up my alley. IMO nothing dubs a nicer looking buggy body than a hares mask.

Neat looking tie! Reminds me of some of the wet flies of old with the tippet tail.
