Use a thicker tippet with this one, Mark. I've got a feeling you're gonna need it! Cracker!

Thanks wullie and emerger1981, yup I'm at the stage where I can knot my own legs, well the fly's legs should I say, is this the point of no return.

Do you dye your own feathers, Mark or do you buy them already dyed? This fly looks ambitious, but there again I think the trout will find it irresistible.
