I like that a lot, Ruard.

This may be my new favorite, Ruard. Gorgeous little fly. I would fish this pattern with great confidence.

Nicely done. That hackle has a wonderful sheen to it. I need a Magpie. But where would I put it? I need to tie through a lot of material before adding more. I have a lot of work to do.

I must admit, I am getting hooked on these straight eyes! :lol: Beginning to add to the minimalist nature of the soft hackle designs, for me...

And that's not to mention what you've done on the shank of this one, Ruard... :)
