Hans,
I find this particular fly stunning. Two things that really grabbed my eye were the color combination and the other thing is the transition from abdomen to rib. It just flows together and is to perfection. Great work.

HANS,
DITTO TO WHAT STEPHAN SAID! ALL OF THE PATTERNS YOU CREATE ARE GREAT AND GREATLY APPRECIATED. BUT, THERE IS JUST SOMETHING IN THIS PATTERN THAT'S CLASSIC AND PLEASING TO THE EYE. I FIND MYSELF GOING BACK AND LOOKING AT IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. ASIDE FROM BEING A GREAT "KILLING" PATTERN (HAS ANYONE TRIED IT YET?), IT HAS TO BE SIMPLE AND FUN TO TIE. GREAT WORK HANS! NOW,WHERE'S MY VICE.....???

Beautiful fly, Hans. The little touch of gray dubbing compliments the color scheme nicely.

Very nice fly, but I must contest your name...it should've been the "Goldie Hans!"
