Pretty much spot-on, to my eye OJ. Funny pattern the Doobry... not easy to get just right. Most shop bought tyings are a waste of a hook. Get somebody with a bit of feel on the case though, and it's a winner, as yours is.

............. and in a flash of light, and a slight whiff of embrocation, he is here!

Very nice, Jock, a carbon copy of the first one that fell out of my vice ..................... except, I used turral's fire-red wool for a tail which I believe isn't obtainable now. A fair sub would be GloBrite no. 5.
