I could fish this pattern with a Leisenring lift for the rest of my life and be perfectly content.

I really like the proportions on this one. The elongated wing is a nice touch.

Lovely.

I LOVE this pattern! Used to tie it all the time, not nearly as nice as yours, but I couldn't remember the name. I was thinking it was the KING of the waters but that didn't end up being right. So glad you posted this and amazing work!
