Awsome pattern. I've been catching trout on an olive bodied/partridge hackle one for years. It was actually the first really, really productive soft hackle I ever fished that wasn't just silk/thread and hackle.

Ray, I really like this pattern. They have a nice profile. The lower picture hints at Spring. "Think bloom"

Ray,
As always, you do great work at the vice and we really appreciate it. You know my affinity for the color tan. All trouts beware! Letumgo's at it again! Nice job Ray.
Slate_drake_9, I like the phrase in your signature line. Alot of truth in these simple words!
