			Size 18, Olive  and Tan
I hope I get the chance to try these before Spring run off swells all of the local rivers.
This pattern is a great way for me to use up the larger Partridge feathers that normally are never used.
I will definitely tie some up to size 12

			They look simple... but effective.  It's amazing what can be done with three materials.  Excellent job and I wish I was trout fishing with those.

They have a Picket Pin look to them.
Is that black head seal?

No Rick, it is some Black synthetic dubbing I have. 
Now that you mention it, it does have a Picket Pin look about it.

			That's a brilliant idea for large soft hackle, and the fly looks great DUBBN.  And if you don't mind, I'll be stealing it too.
