Looks like a great fly to drag off of the edge of receding spring ice on a lake. ;)

Norm,
You never cease to amaze and the pattern above is no exception! It is gorgeous on all levels and your tying style is very desirable! Please publish a book soon! I want to be first in line to have my copy signed by you!
Thanks for your many contributions Norm! True eye candy!
