I opened the page and an 'ohhhh' pasted my lips. This is a beautiful color fly. I can't imagine a trout ignoring this sitting is a gentle tailout, bobbing along on the surface. Just stunning. I have to say the word masterpiece slips into my thoughts with such a clean tie. I'll have to try to work on my presentation of this fly.

OK I am still staring at these flies!!! What is it about them that fascinates me so. I think it is the color and the way you photographed them. this is sick. Lock away…. Lock away!

Very pretty patterns. When ever I see little Olives, I think delicate. You have captured that element in my eye. You really are a fine tyer.

Subtle, soft, and quite beautiful. Congrats on another fine fly.
