In a way, this reminds me of the Parmachine Belle pattern. One of my long time favorites.
Nostalgic beauty. Your tying is a wonder Norm….
I am looking forward to seeing the nymphs.

Forget the Maple Leaf, the Canadian flag should have this on it.

Norm, as always, your flies are a masterpiece.
Where do you find such quality wing material? Where I live duck and goose quills are very hard to find, so I mostly have to order them and take a gamble on the quality.

sorry for the late reply
finding quality wing material is a crap shoot at best.
a biannual trip to my local fly shop to hopefully sort out their best materials is a must
