I love the segmentation in the body. Impressive thread control in such a small fly. Your fly box is going to look a lot like Bill's before too long. ;) :D

Excellent work, Wayne. As Ray points out, the segmented appearance makes it look very "buggy", and your hungry Colorado trouts won't care one bit that the thread is not silk.

Great job! Wayne, I would say you are one of the top tiers on this site. :)
