Bill,
This pattern is awesome looking! It is a trout magnet for sure! I have a bunch of root beer Krystal Flash in one of my boxes behind me.....
Masterfully done Bill as always!

Dear Partsman Mike! These two look fantastic! They have that fuzzy aura about them which I like and I'm sure your tribe will like too! I know what you mean about proportions and trying to get them right! Sometimes, you look at a pattern and think, "that should be easy"! Then the dubbing co...

Norm,
Your Sparkle Damsel Nymph has lights! Where do the batteries go? This pattern is beautiful!

Bill, This pattern is quite a looker! I like how you compared the natural insect with your pattern over the two pics. I was interested to see the ingredient "Bonefish Tan Krystal Dub" or is it simply "Tan Krystal Dub"? I ran out recently of some older stock of Tan Krystal Dub. I ...

Wayne, I find your "Totally Generic" patterns quite beautiful and I know they will take fish practically everywhere! You have brought to light the brown hackles against the beautiful gray dubbing! By the way, I am in total agreement with Lance! The body work on these is fantastic! You have...

Norm, In this pattern with it's beautiful color combo's, you have achieved "the look" that I always look for and admire in everyone's offerings including my own. So far, I have found it repeated in many members patterns including yours but, sadly I cannot reproduce this cool feature. I thi...

Dear T-12, This pattern is so cool! I am drawn in to the snowshoe hare wing obviously and then, like Ron and the others, I noticed the exquisitely tied and applied Pine Squirrel collar which is playing second fiddle to the hugely attractive wing but no less beautiful in its finery and function! You ...

Your color combinations are beyond description Norm! How could any fish resist this beauty!
