Just in time for the Yellow Sally's and PMD's! Well done.

DUBBN,
In the 60's, it was the Gray Hackle Yellow that was my go to fly. In the 80's I found my yellow dyed rabbit Flymph to be so effective even when fished along with a Partridge and Yellow. This is another variant to test in different light and water conditions. I am curious to fish it deeper when the luminous factor may kick in after a charge.

Ha ha. In the 80's the Gray Hackle Yellow almost caused me to kick Gary Lafontaines a$$. I never liked him since.Roadkill wrote: ↑Sun May 26, 2024 9:36 amDUBBN,
