Very nice, both the fly and photography. Brilliant use of sock wool for the dubbing. I know of a couple forums where people would be asking what brand of socks you used.

Wool socks? My wife would kill me if she saw me using my wool socks to make flies.
Other than that, the fly is beautiful.

Dearest New River,
Wow! Incredibly beautiful and delicate flies! The color combo's (not only the body but all over) are incredible! The partridge hackle is beautifully dark and I have a particular liking for them recently! I was glad to see you used it in your patterns!
Please, please, please keep creating and tying and sharing with us!
