Two Tone Softy

Hook - 1X Long Nymph, 1X Heavy Wire, Sproat Bend, Size 10
Thread - Griffith's 14/0, Brown
Abdomen - Light Hare's Ear
Thorax - Ginger Rabbit
Hackle - Hen, Crawfish Orange

Think the hook is a Cabela's house flavor. Had a couple laying around stuck in a card marked with the size/type.

This is another winner. You are fearless with color and I might have a new favorite fly background. Great shot.

Hank - no bubble wrap was harmed during the making of this photograph.
(It WAS harmed afterwards. :shock: )
