Wow ! . There’s been enough orders of that book on the forum that one could easily start
a small bonfire and keep warm during this cold winter’s day. 🌬!

I hackled this one !

Thorax ....... Purple ice dub
Hackle. ....... Red grouse

Very nice BrkTrt !

Thanks Doug but I’m a beginner when it comes to soft hackle though this one came out nice. Love
the gamebird feathers. I like the karma feel about them.

Thanks Doug.

Thank you Doug.

Thanks Doug.

Thanks Dougsden. Haven’t fished it yet as this has been the year of injuries for me but looking forward to the spring with the same anticipation of getting a shot or two in the arm.

Going a little stir crazy as I broke my shoulder and my activities including tying are very limited. Threw this fly together before my shoulder knocked me off the bench. Just made it up and have no idea if it will fish. Hook........ Mustad3906b Sz 12 Thread ..... vevuus 14/0. pale yellow Body. ........

Does anyone have a source for this bird and or is there a decent substitute ? I’ll be sitting on my favorite bench waiting for a reply.
