I knew there was a reason we had the same birthday!

Nice hackle, it appears to be Coch-y- Bondhu…… very nice. I use something similar, but with a brown body or a peacock body that works very well for me in the spring time.

Good luck fishing!

That’s pretty fancy looking, Mr. roadkillBill.

I like it!

Thank you Ray. That’s really a tremendous pattern.

That’s a very nice pattern – Greenwells is a real favorite of mine, although a true Greenwells cape is not the easiest thing to find, as is most good hackle.

That’s a nicely done pattern, Ray - excellent hook choice as well.
Could we get a closeup of the finished product please??

Ok- In my limited knowledge, forging is a mechanical process which aligns steel molecules to add strength - think a big burly guy hammering a piece of red hot steel on an anvil. Tempering is a heating process which if done correctly alters the chemical properties of said steel, enabling it to spring...

That’s a picture perfect pheasant tail nymph, tide true to form as it should be. Very nice work.!!
