Re: Penny Fly
Wow, that is MINT! Has all the makings of a capital killer. I'd like to "circulate" a few of those this spring.

You may have come up with an instant classic here (I'm serious). Definitely worth more than a penny.

Thanks . By all means tie some up and let me know how they do. I'm thinking in a size 16 this fly may pass for an emerging PMD to an uneducated 6 inch trout......maybe.
