Beatiful fly old hat. And on such little hooks.

That is a very good colour combination with the Furnace hackle.
A 'bonny wee flee'. 8-)

Just had a thought, it might be worth a variation using Pearsall's Jasper thread. ;)

Donald - I think the Jasper silk would look amazing on this pattern. Outstanding idea!

I am glad you like the Jasper idea Ray,
'where did you get that hat?' as the old song said. :lol: :lol:

VERY COOL!

Would this qualify as a "hotspot" pattern? If so, opens up a lot of options for most recent swap.

Thanks, gentlemen for the kind words.

I know what the jasper looks like but have never used it. Nice suggestion.

This isn't really a hotspot in my opinion, on this particular fly, as the orange is quite subtle. But no reason why the same style couldn't be used as a hot spot. I can see some flouro green, with a grizzly dun hackle.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

This pattern gives new meaning to the term "bi-visible", and I like it a lot.

Another astounding contribution. I will offer it to my grayling next season - Donald's jasper variation included.
