Re: Hairwing Spruce
Dearest Steve,
This pattern is fantastic! It looks great and it looks like it would be a bit easier to tie than the traditional Spruce Fly! There is something about the look of that TMC 200R that is hard to beat. Very classy looking!
I see you have others posted. I am on my way to have a look-see!
Very good stuff!
Doug

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
Re: Hairwing Spruce
Doug, I really like the TMC 200R & use it a lot. A versatile & good-looking hooker, imo.
