HANS,
SOME OF THE THINGS I LIKE ABOUT THIS PATTERN:
THE USE OF TIEMCO # 102Y HOOKS. THEY ARE WONDERFUL AND I'M GLAD YOU CHOSE IT!
THE COQ DE LEON HACKLE LOOKS GREAT. VERY BUGGY!
THE "VEILING" EFFECT OF THE MUSKRAT AND THE COQ DE LEON. OUTSTANDING!
JUST ANOTHER FINE EXAMPLE OF THE CREATIVE GENIEUS YOU POSESS AND WE ALL CONSIDER OURSELVES VERY FORTUNATE THAT YOU SO FREELY GIVE OF IT!
DO YOU REALIZE THAT ONE OR MORE OF THE MANY PATTERNS YOU'VE POSTED IS DESTINED FOR GREATNESS IN THE FLY PATTERN HALL OF FAME? IF ANY OF US HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT!
A GREAT ADMIRERER AND FAN OF YOURS ALWAYS,
DOUGSEN
