Default Streaky silver

Tied this fly this afternoon so thought I'd try a shot of outdoor photography with my little kodak for a change.

Tied on a kamasan B405 size 12
Thread - pearsall's salmonberry
Tail - golden pheasant topping
Body - olive hare
Rib - oval silver tinsel
Palmered hackle - golden olive cock hackle
Neck hackle- grizzle hackle cloaked with olive partridge hackle from the neck

cheers

Thanks weejimmy, I tend to prefer the lighter olive to the darker olive, think it looks better in the water.

You're getting a bit good Mark, but what's with all this free time, shouldn't you be making mugs or something.?
I hope you intend to wet a few of these creations this year.!!
