Top notch instructional video and a good look at a pattern style with many possibilities. This particular combination of materials suggests a Blue Quill to my eye. Kudos, Hans.

Beautiful pattern Hans. I've found a similar pattern (in a smaller size) to work wonders when little black caddis were hatching.

I have always liked the Glanrhos style patterns, since Johnno first brought them to my attention a few years ago. I enjoyed watching you tye this fly. Lovely pattern, and no doubt effective.

Glanrhos style, you wrap your hackle on & position the hackle tip for the wing.
