That is a great Irish May, Ruard. Should do well if you hit the hatch. By the way, is that the Creekside Cabin pool I see in the background?

Wonderful. Seeing this fly and the backdrop makes me long to go fishing. Thank you for the inspiration.

Hi Bill and Ray,
You are both right. Under the tail you can see a man in The water, that is Bill.

Nice Ruard! If you hit the hatch that'll be a winner.
Ray, good eye! Hah... remember how high that was and I waded across it? Almost regretted that one.

Ruard,
What a beautiful pattern you have created, the May fly! And, how excited we are to know that you will soon be in Ireland! How exciting this must be! Just preparing for a trip like this would be awesome enough for me! Are you tying other patterns too for this trip? We cannot wait to see your wonderful photos of beautiful Ireland and the incredible waters!
Doug
Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
