Norm, I've gotta ask. How many tries did it take to get the scale of the fly from feather wing streamer to winged wet fly that perfect? Incredible tying.

Norm,
I like this conversion! It brings along with it the beautiful look of the Black Ghost Streamer through the incredible proportions that you have applied! Fantastic friend!
I've gotta try this one!
