Nice shot, thank you Bill.
It is a lovely hackle and a great little fly.

Bill, everything about that fly looks like it needs its own line in my box. beautiful example and a killer pattern. Cool shots too.

Re: Greenwell's Spider
I need to tie a pile of these. I have tied a broader variety of flies, historic and personalized, but I'm also honing in on a dozen essentials. This has to make the list but as with other patterns I haven't made a whole dedicated box to this fly. My loss. I'll get there. Thus is just such a fantastic version.

Thank you, w. The sad thing is that I have not had the opportunity yet to try out this version since I tied it in June. Hopefully when the weather cools some ...
