That's really pretty, Ruard; it may be Dutch by birth, but the fish will like it worldwide.

A very nicely dressed fly.
Something vaguely familiar there?

Spot on, Ruard. And a nice shot too. I'm sure Donald will appreciate that the recipe is included as well.
(mild humor based on the fact that Donald is very familiar with this pattern, and that he mentioned ranting about posts without recipes. anyway, there was a comic insert there somewhere.)

Ruard,
Outstanding! Bill is right! It will certainly take fish anywhere in the world! Very nicely done friend!

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
