That is an awesome fly! I’m going to tie some up to give to a couple of new-to-fly fishing friends. And I’ll make a few for myself. Thank you for your videos.
Always good to help the new guys. If you use allot of streamers in your waters this will be a keeper. Tie them some Griffiths Gnats #14 so they can score some on dries.
The feather will lay down after it's wet, but you can take a hair dryer and blow the feather back after your done tying it, Davie McPhail does that on his flies with large feathers.
