Should fethch a few up Scott! My only gripe would be the tail... a little on the heavy side for me, especially for a bright flourescent one. I always feel that the tail should balance the fly and be a whispy, delicate way to 'sign off', and finish the pattern, rather than be the main focal point and make it ar5e heavy.

Cheers for the comment
i tried to base it on the Clan Chief , which has a nice bright butt , hopefully it should work on some of our local waters

Nice one Scott.
Give it a swim in some peaty water and hold on tight.
