Very nice, Donald. The Brahma feathers are very versatile and becoming more and more popular.

I was fortunate to receive some samples of Brahma from VERN-O last winter and have to agree that it is wonderful stuff to work with. Beautifully mottled feathers with nice soft center stems. The samples made some beautiful soft hackle rubberband caddis.

Lovely flies, Don. I always enjoy exploring around on your site.

Highly suggest you try and find some, it's good stuff. Hard to go back to partridge once you have used it and it comes in many different colors.

Those flies look great!
