daringduffer,

Thanks to you and Hans for that fly pattern! Here is this morning's variation of Byron's SH tied with Orvis tan sparkle yarn and a gold twist.

One is a donation tie for the IFFF NW Fly Tyers Expo and the rest are going in my box to fish off against the Muskrat... ;)

That's really very nice, Bill. Will you fish that with a specific bug in mind or as an attractor (or both)?

Bill,

I will fish it for both but I think it will make a great tan caddis emerger. It is such a "buggy" tie and should also be a sparkling and moving attractor.

Bill, that's pretty jazzy. Looks great and should get plenty of attention.
