I just ran across the burlap I used to use to tie this fly the other day. Thanks for the memory jog, Norm. Superbly dressed as always. Very effective fly.

Thanks for the pattern I will have to tie some up! It isn't in either of Jack's Western Trout Fly Tying Manuals.

I have used this simple Burlap Fore and Aft for golden stones ...
