Yes, nice, but I can't see any black tips in the hackle. They should be there, says the trout. Or, maybe, Datus Proper.

Scott,
What material did you use for the hotspot? Is that egg yarn, or UNI-Stretch?
Nice design.

Ray,
Oops; missed that in the recipe (please feel free to add it). That's hot orange egg-yarn.
