Re: Simple Simon
Wonderful fly, Rodger, but that photo blows my mind.

Re: Simple Simon
Great looking pattern and fun to see some extra thread in this thread.

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

Re: Simple Simon
Rodger, another really nice fly. I love these with the opossum thorax and the wire body. I even picked up some of this lime green wire. Let us know how these work for you. I would imagine this would be a great prospecting fly. Cool pic.
