Dana, I had to go look and yes, your contribution to a March Brown swap in February 2020 was
a scotch style pattern. And to stay on topic, Sanders' MB soft hackle was in that swap too!
I believe it was ronr who posted a picture of a shadowbox from that swap?

Re: Sanders' March Brown Soft Hackle (tyed by DOUGSDEN)
So I'm drooling all over my laptop as I attempt to log in just to say DANG!
Awesome stuff from your den, Doug..
The rivers here are up and ripping and the wind is howling.
Time to fire up the stove, build some bugs, and watch football.
Stay safe and warm.

Re: Walmart Softhackles
I have an old Darbee Dun very similar to that! Got it from Elsie shortly before she passed away. Dana has one of Harrys chicken skins too thats close. Mine is getting sparce but I'll pluck every feather until it's gone. Twist up your bugs Wayne and use that cape. I see you as a fisher, not a collect...

Re: Polish Palmer & Partridge
Very nice Guys!
That reminds me of an old pattern called Queen of the Waters.

Re: Light Olive Soft Hackle
So I'm not the only one who has been on the receiving end of that Shaner stare?
Would some of the old timers use scud style hooks if they were available back then?
I think so...

Re: A few of Doug's Soft Hackle Gem's
Doug, That cream Flymph is a dead ringer for an invaria, commonly known as a light Cahill!
A classic old Catskill pattern from around 1880 that was tied dry but killed even when wet.
I like your simple dressing too, no tag, no rib, no bells.
My kinda style.
Well done!

Re: My first attempt at married wings
For a first attempt, you nailed it.
Nice aligned flowing tips and set.
If you fall down that Bergman hole and find Norm at the bottom, tell him we said "Hi"
