Orange, Mole & Grizzly
- Hook: Daiichi Wet #14
- Thread: Orange 12/0
- Dubbing: Mole (touched)
- Feather: Grizzly hen
An early attempt at touch dubbing mole. Certainly not as nice as some I've seen here and on the old forum.

I keep clicking on this fly thinking "Damn! That looks good." Very nicely dressed.

That's one sweet fly, Aaron.
