Is it a dabbler Gaz......? Quite difficult to see any wing detail from that fotie.Its got the "size 10 dressed an a size 12" look about it and although some patterns look fine dressed that way,I would suggest shortening everything down a wee bit,to keep things in proportion with the hook.
The colours are great.....I like it.....

Cool......what materials did you use for the front end of the fly then....I'm guessing its a hot orange hackle cloaked with dyed black or bronze mallard...?
