The argument was whether the body was peacock, or Black chenille. :lol: :lol: :lol: Seriously, it almost came down to a fist fight. When I did use the RGK, a hundred years ago, it ...

Re: Lisenring's March brown
Hare , Partridge or Brown hen. Tail or no tail. Pheasant or no Pheasant. Gold or Copper wire. Brown, Black, or Orange thread
All these combinations work well for me, from Early Spring to Fall.
Size 16 and 14's

Re: Carpet muncher caddis
No, I do not think it is too big at all. Heck, it could do double duty as a Cranefly larva. Its a good looking pattern.
