Roadkill,
Very interesting pattern you have created! I love the depth of color in the body (hence the name, "Red Wine Kebari"! And, there is yet another use for pheasant which you have sought out and applied masterfully well!
This is a stellar pattern! Nice work friend! Have you taken it for a trip around your favorite pool or still water?

That's really nice. Can't stop looking at it. Fishing report when it happens, please.

Alan (brk trt) talked me into buying a Tiny Ten this year. I'm going use Roadkill's flies as a primer on Tenkara and spend the winter gearing up. Beautiful flies, Roadkill, beautiful.

Bill - Lovely! I especially like the look of the black tips on the pheasant feathers. I need to keep an eye out for those feathers, next time I’m using pheasant.

Hi, Hank. It's a small stream tenkara rod! The price is ridiculously affordable and the rod is a hoot to use. I'll eventually graduate up to a grownup rod (...or maybe not) but for now, these small, alder choked northern Maine streams are perfect for this rod.

I was out today pushing through the snow with my Tiny Ten...I found a few willing brookies and they liked my Tenkara nymphs.

Thanks for the link, makes sense. Growing up in Eastern Pa. there were tons of small creeks that could have used
one of them on.
