Perfection...

What can you tell us about this pattern? Do you know the origin of the name?

unfortunately I have no history on this pattern as none is given in the Forgotten Flies book

maybe a google search would unearth its history

Norm,
Wow! Such a beautifully tied pattern! I love the very butt end of your creation! Smooth, seamless, delicately tapered! Just like the insects we try to portray! This is eye candy for sure and will be deadly on any stream or still water that it is applied! I'm thinking a great Brookie pattern!

Fish when you can, not when you should! Anything short of this is just a disaster.
