Is there a fly already with this name?

Not that I am aware of. It has a nice ring to it. I hope this means you are going to show us a new pattern soon. ;)

Thanks Ray.
I've tied a few variations and tested some today.
The idea was to call the final version Highland Gold, if the name isn't already taken.

My first thought was Highland Gold sounds like a blended whisky . . . maybe one that could sell for $9 in Blue Mound, Texas.

Any chance this is going to be a fly for salmon?

I'm bringing a bottle of that along to MT. Everyone will rejoice.

But seriously, can't wait to see these patterns!
