Re: Flare
I like it. It's well proportioned, tied on one of my favorite hooks and looks buggy as all get out. Bet the fish will love it too.

Re: Flare
I love to see your creations for two reasons -
1. Obviously, the wonderful workmanship that goes into the construction of the fly.
2. I love to guess what fruit of vegetable is involved. (OK, is that a pepper??)
As always, a clean, crisp tie beautifully done, and a superb photograph.
Thanks for posting.

Re: Flare
This one is right up my alley. IMO nothing dubs a nicer looking buggy body than a hares mask.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Re: Flare
Neat looking tie! Reminds me of some of the wet flies of old with the tippet tail.
