Izaak,
Once again, a great pattern and sooo well tied. I love any pattern set on those cool lookin' R50U's. This type of pattern has claimed more fish for me than most others combined. I am glad to see you posting it here. It's beautiful! BTW, don't stop creating and posting these beauties!

Your flies are just beautiful. I'm waiting for your best tasting fruit - the Florida red/blood Grape.

I'll stick around...

I Think are just the flies Dubbn was referring to in his fishing fly question. This his the mark and done with great style. I am really enjoying your flies very much. These are some of my favorites.

I just keep coming back to this fly. It sure looks sweet, especially with that beautiful hook it is on!
