Very nice tie, clean & crisp, and a classic one, too. Thanks.

Very nice, Norm. Happens to be a new favorite of mine for the Brookies here in Maine.

Do tell, Ron. Specifics, man, specifics. I may have to try it next season up on the Fish.

Mike 62, I use it as a dropper in sizes 12 and 14 on a Mustad 3906B. I like the shank a bit longer and I pinch the barb.
I fished the Piscataquis before the river dropped this spring and had great success. Took the fly off,gave it to my wife and she caught fish. I've used it on the East Outlet, the West Branch of the Penobscot, Dead River and a couple others all summer and it's been a catcher for me most times. I fish it with confidence.

It comes well recommended then. I'll definitely put it on the list of flies to try this coming season. Thanks for the report, I appreciate it.
