Yep! I'd fish it in a heart beat! It is a very good looking pattern, almost display worthy! I'll take just a half dozen!

Nightwatchman, I think you did well with your quill body work! It looks great! I like the way the fly looks overall! It looks vintage...in a good way!

Sweet looking pattern! Ray and Alan said it best above! Yea, what they said! Lots of Lava friend!

You guys have your Water Cricket mojo on with these! Pritt would be very proud and so are we!
Keep it up fellows! This is what makes the forum tick! Great work indeed!

Wow! This is sweet! I especially like the body with the horsehair "overlay"....would that be a good term? Very nice effect! Also, the double hackle up front! I have seen this on other patterns and I'm pretty sure here on the forum! This has got to be a killer pattern! I know of some saucer...

Ray, Forgive me for not responding sooner! It shouldn't take months to do so! This thread is fantastic! I love what you have done with the muskrat pieces that I sent you! You have died them beautifully! And, I see that you have given other folks samples and such! This is wonderful! I am so pleased! ...
