I started smiling as soon as I read the name of the fly. Beautifully cheerful fly and impeccably tyed.

Nice color combination, it should be a good stonefly imitation!

fishhead, Howdy;

Like the looks of the multi-flavored Italian ice cream gelato or as it is multi- flavored gelati. Sort of a sherbert kinda thing.
Tasty...

Pretty fly, fishhead. You certainly do have a way with hackle, and the creative body compliments it nicely.
