This is a beautiful dressing- well done. I just got my first few boxes of Kamasan B175's and I think I these will be perfect for this fly. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks, All for the positive comments.

John,
Ask Hans about dying with this stuff. he has used picric acid. Myself. if I really wanted a shade of yellow green, Tumeric works. As far as olive goes--good old RIT is safer. I've done some dying with Kool Aid and with food coloring, too. I've even tinted gray partridge feathers with a good solution of tea. Makes them brown partridge. :D

Mark - I consider you a Master Tyer. Seeing this pattern, again, just proves it.
