Trying some on the straight eyes. It is a little bit different tying off when your used to an up or down eye. Just has a different feel.

I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Nice fly though and it looks better with a straight eye. There is a number of combinations you could use with Rhea. I am thinking of a olive body
