That is such a handsome spider pattern. Beautifully tyed. Your style is very graceful. Reminiscent of the delicate natural insects.

I would love to get a peek into your fly box, the next time we get together. Just don't count them after... :twisted:

Tom, Did I see that lovely dressing on Facebook as well, in the soft hackle flies forum. If I'm mistaken, please forgive. Very nicely done.
