			Great looking tie. I think the fish will be all over that.
I'm partial to those curved hooks, think they look a little more natural.

			Geeze William......
That is sooo nice!  It looks very much like the picture on the.....right side of the screen where your info. is located....I know this area has a name??  Anyway, the hook is bit different.  Dang nice pattern William!

			I love the way the hackle and the dubbing marry into each other for a full thorax with legs.  Nicely done!
Are you going after a caddis or mayfly here?  Profile says caddis to me.  I would think with a few tail fibers this would be a good march brown though.
