Niklas,
It's great to see you back again and putting out such beautiful patterns. The third ones look really great and so well tied!
Very classy friend!

Evening gents..
Tied a batch for a friend of mine with a different colour, he wanted the fly with an oliv Greeninsh tone. To get the oliv tone I thought of the Waterhen Bloa.. yellow thread oven a grey shank.. gives the fly an oliv grenish look. Im quite satisfied. This one is tied on a Partriidge SLD #20.
