Very nice tie. I've had other tiers tell me that pattern is a "scruffy" looking fly - Until they fish one.
Thanks for posting.

That certainly looks "buggy" -- a very nicely executed version of a much copied pattern.

Nik, i checked out your site as well..........VERY nice. i can't wait to get your SGM Wet Fly Swap, fly. Wasn't that sposed to be a Christmas deal..........
Hey, CONGRATZ! on the Partridge Pro Team deal........Mark is a wonderful person to deal with, and your very right about him knowing his business, and he's a very good tyer. We got to hang out at Killyleagh last year. REALLY nice guy. If you remember, ask him to give you a package of the Saltwater Shrimp hook CS54.......he gave me a package and they're great for soft hackles. Got a beautiful curve and a straight eye. i bought a bunch of the CS6JP hooks from him again.
Just couldn't help myself...........
Best of luck with your team affiliation. That should be wonderful for you.
