You took the words right out of my mouth! You are a great sport Ray!
Norm, what a great pattern as always!

I don't think I have seen a cleaner eye. The head on the fly got my attention right off the bat. Well tied fly.

What kind of yellow hackle is that from, a duck? I have been looking for yellow hackle and I'm having a tough time finding any.
