Sorry, but I couldn't resist the urge for another one.

Today left the ground covered with snow and the sun shining high here in central Maryland and every time I walked inside I couldn't see a thing. I thus decided to tie flies with very little color variation. I bet this fly will crush on a river with a good whitefly hatch.

Very nice! I like the white seal with the gold rib. Goes nicely together with the hackling and tail.

Liam, Lovely dressing. You do have the touch with these flies.
