Okay, I like it. I like the color palette, I like the buggy body, I like the hackle, and I'm a sucker for that hook. Well done, as always, Hans.

Neat colours and body style/materials. Should give a nice "come eat me" profile in the water.

Nobody does " organized chaos" better than you Hans.
Looks very natural and delicious.
