2. and a half, lol.....also i would of put a few up on top, to fill in the gap between the wing feathers.
3. the length of the fibers in the collar are to short.......i should of tried to find a feather with longer barbs/fibers......but on that particular saddle there weren't any.......i did try.
4. i think some JC nails would of been good too......or "something" for cheeks.
Very often it is even MORE important to know what NOT to add, as opposed to "what" to add............but in this case, i kinna feel the fly is incomplete lookin'............i need to make some serious improments in the original idea i had for this fly.................
..........and i will. 
This fly is pretty much a complete disaster.....but i still like it in the sense that i will never forget what i learned in tying it.....and it was a fun challange, not that i rose to the occassion sufficiantly whatsoever...............
Rough estimate of the number of donated flies (all originals), i've just given away, meaning i will NEVER know what the hell the dang recipe was..............maybe 1,000.....proably more actually......could actually, very easily, be double that over the last decade. i don't keep track at all............what would be the point. My accountant believes whatever i tell 'em. 
.......the weird thing is.....alllllllll those recipes up in a puff of smoke.......oh well. 
It aint nothin' any big deal at all.....just a fun little fly that was beggin' to get tyed up. 
.....Thankx Jim.
