Thanks guys. Ron, that definitely could be. I basically just too the recipe for this fly from Hans Weilenmann who did a video of it. I thought I may be able to use it effectively in some ponds I fish. I actually like your variant better than the original. I seem to get some tippet twist with those ...

I'm too old to wrassle with bulls anymore. I've already been threatened with disembowelment if I ever attempt any fly tying cooking adventures in our new kitchen.

I just went through all of my masks and tails and I don't have anything that compares to that color; and I really want to dye some up now.
