Not a purebred flymph, but with enough family traits to get invited to the reunion ... ;)

It's from a medium dun hen cape, Bob.

Correction: It's a hen saddle, not cape.

Thanks, Dana. The abdomen is pheasant tail and the thorax is a blend of rabbit, Antron, and seal in a dropped loop.

Nice Bill,
I bet that fishes beautifully.
It even looks like you grabbed it before it swam to the surface.
How hard can it be?

Bill,
Outstanding flymph pattern my friend! Premerger is right! It has that "alive" look so indicative of your work! We just need you to get out there and try this baby out! Or, send us a couple of them to field trial and we will report back very soon!
Unparalleled quality and unprecedented beauty Bill,

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
