Hey now, I think that is a great bumblebee fly. I don't know how you did it, but it is wonderful. The body looks very even, and tidy. Nice work!

That's a bit "nonconformist" with the quad wrap steps versus single?
I like it! A bold statement.

Contrast, contrast, contrast is a great attractive quality in a fly. I will be very interested in knowing how this performs.

Very attractive pattern. I love the contrasting bands.

Neat and tidy pattern like all your patters. I am curious to know how you do with it as well.

I will put this one in my fly box and see how the bluegill like it next spring!

When true simplicity is gained.

This one is simplicity plus interest.

Great approach to bluegill flies; they won't be able to resist this one.
