I saw this fly tied by Tom Mason on other posts and wanted to give it an attempt. Much inferior but
should tempt a few fish.

Ken,
What a wonderful pattern and so well tied! Good Job! Ray is right! This pattern will go and find them! The yellow seal fur is awesome! A rich, golden yellow! Keep a tight rein on that stuff!
Once again, a great job in tying and photography! Keep it up Ken!
Doug

So, while trying to view this pattern, I realized that one of my grandsons had scribbled all over the computer screen with a pink sharpie; it made the fly look like it was constructed with Tups dubbing. Very nice, I love a good Tups.

My attempts at tying a Tups always comes out poorly for some reason.
