Re: Matador
Really lovely fly, Charlie. Is the leader mono? What hook is that? Very graceful lines.

Re: Matador
Marvelous craftsmanship Charlie.
I’d frame that one for display. WAY to nice to let a fish ruin.

Re: Matador
REE,
The hook is a Mustad #3366, 3/0, with the eye cut off. Mono used instead of gut for the snell.
Ray,
It was tied to be part of a framed donation for the Wounded Warrior project.

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
