Hook. ...... Gaelic supreme soft hackle sz 16
Thread....... Pearsall’s gossamer yellow
Body. ...... “. “. “
Hackle. ...... Eurasian Collard dove sub. *** I’ve been advised tonight rather sternly that the Eurasian dove is
not a good substitute for dotterel. My apologies.

I really like the look of the ECD. That has got to catch fish!

It's probably the best legal substitute we here here in North America.

Pat,
Great looking fly!
I would fish that fly all day long during the PMD hatch!

Maybe so Zen but apparently some have a very strong issue with the comparison.
