The hackle is beautiful, Vivki, regardless of how it got tied in.

w'head, Howdy;
Lived in Naples, It. for 3 years (I was in the Coast Guard at that time).
Without the hand gestures, shoulder shruggs, and facial expressions to accompany the words............they just be words, with or without the accent.

Vicki, this is really a nice pattern. I've never tied a Tenkara fly, but I plan to. This looks great, compared with others that I've seen. Great combination of materials and great execution.

Thanks W. It's still a work in progress. Bill sent me the link for the tenkara usa website. I had been in there before but missed the video showing how to tie a tenkara fly. Turns out even though I was thinking backwards it wasn't backwards enough!

I'll try again.
Oh and thanks Bill. I can see another addiction forming!

From what I've seen of your previous "addictions", I'm sure you'll master this one as well
