There is nothing about this fly I don't like. It even has my favorite hackle. Nicely done, CC.

Tasty fly, Rodger. I hope your tying enough to share. I've already got my hand out.

Rodger, this is just the right note of contrast. I tied my PMD swap flies using orange silk and about the same dumbing texture and color, with a pale hackle, but I would put money on the contrast of your hackle with the lively body over my fly, just in general. If I get my photo set up back up I'll post it.

Rodger,
Meeooww! This one is purr-fect! Ariel (fflutterfly) was just inquiring on another post about why no one shows flies both in the dry mode and severly damp! The timing is perfect! Nice job! Your tying is great!
