Now that, I like a lot!
The biot you are using has a lot more of a "feather" edge to it than anything I have- looks like a dubbed/ribbed body, nice look. And that Golden Plover is just the ideal colour mix for the hackle.

I never get tired of seeing a beautiful Plover hackle. This combo really nails it. Sweet fly.

I like that a LOT!! That looks like a huge meal for a hungry trout. Can't say enough good things about it.
