Another one goes in the "bookmark" file...

I love the idea of the herl rib to the add a little segmentation/variegation to the abdomen--the counter-wrapped wire keeps it from being a one-fish-fly?

Mark,
Lovely bit of work there. The body is excellent and one I'll have to try. It has all the triggers for a fish taking fly.
