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

Marvelous craftsmanship Charlie.

I’d frame that one for display. WAY to nice to let a fish ruin.

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.
