Hopefully, later today i can post a photo of a Rootbeer Softhackle (variant) I have been using this Winter.

Your color scheme has worked great for me.

Bill,
This pattern is awesome looking! It is a trout magnet for sure! I have a bunch of root beer Krystal Flash in one of my boxes behind me.....
Masterfully done Bill as always!
