Very nicely done. Do you use Stewart's method of twisting the thread and hackle stem?
I hope I work as well when I'm that old.

Niklas, My go-to fly is the Baillie's (Stewart's) Black Spider. A great fishing fly.

Ron with this being a go to fly I assume you are using it as simply a searching type fly? I have used it sparingly and with some success. All of them have been in the smaller sizes with #18 being the middle of the road.

Oh yes Niklas, a very nice tie.

Regards, Jerry

Absolutely beautiful.

Almost too perfect for a Stewart Spider. Almost.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.
