Default Guiness fly

Bit of a concept fly that came out of a joke between the stig and me, sorry no toucan feathers on this one, don't know whether it would catch fish or not but I'm sure they'd find it interesting. Tied on a Kamasan B175 size 10. Think it would look better with some JC but havn't got any at the mo.

Nice surprise without the prelude of a thumbnail. Like your thinking.
