Now that is a specimen sir, what a beauty.
Everyone take notice of this fly, because this gent has donated some of these to the Tackle cancer campaign, and they will be up for auction in the new year.
I know I'll be bidding if it's allowed.

They look top class. May I be so bold as to ask for the ingredients? Not much chance that I could replicate to that standard but would love to have a go

Your right there Stevie,its a cracking pattern.
UB-40,the dressing is light cahill thread,ribbed with black silk 8/0,hares ear thorax,and four cdc feathers.The parachute is the same with a dun cock hackle.
Thanks for the comments
