Might take a few days for a pic to appear.....but Ray's fly is finished, all cept for another coat (3rd), of head cement, and Ray.....i'm only using the Hard Headed for all thre coats on this fly.....cause you KArazy enough to go fishin' with it one day. But remember, if i fall over dead tomorrow.....you can put it on ebay and be able to pay for a semester of college for your kid when the time comes..........
