Oooooo.Ahhhhhhh. I am a sucker for tan caddis. I never thought of using Peacock for a head...That will be remedied soon.


Thanks Ruard

Ruard,
These patterns are fantastic!!! I really like the first one but the second is growing on me! I just cannot believe what you can do with hook, fur, and feather! Ray just wants to borrow some flies to replace the ones he loses in the trees and the bushes.....Love ya Ray!
Ruard, I don't know what else to say but Wow! Great job friend! Look out Roscoe trouts!
Doug
