I knew I was going to love this fly, before I even opened the post. Terrific fly, Rodger. Nice and buggy (sincere compliment).

PS - The color combination makes me think of a cream caddis.

Roger,

Very nice take on this one. Has great character and simplistically buggy.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

I'd love to have a couple of these in the box. Nice pattern.

Rodger,
I am liking this fly alot! Ray was right and I was thinking the same thing before I scrolled down and read his comments.....definately, cream caddis! I like the black sq. dubbing at the thorax and the dark list on the furnace hen hackle. You may remember that I am a sucker for a tan (or cream) flymph in just about any size or situation. Yours is a classic and very well done!

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