Oh hell yeah!! That is a fly that will surely catch fish. Simple but yet something else. I have no words for it.

I think I’d try it as small as I could see and try it when midges were about. And, closing in on 79, that might be a 12.
As an aside, I was in Cub Scouts with Don DuBois’ so Fletcher DuBois and don’t remember ever meeting Don. He was a LeTotort regular, but by the time I became a semi-regular, some 12_15 years later, he was no longer around.
