if those where saddle hackle tips that fly would be worth 4 pounds at least

Great fly, don't like daddies tied like that, much prefer something more hopper like so I can pull it

Monst, I have done before but these are Veniards.

FC, yes they are genetic saddle tips, from Arkle as it happens, thanks John.

Rob, it's all in the title. Just playing with a few techniques, and wasting good parachute hackle, is all.

I'll tie 9 hail Katies and 9 holy Palmers as pennance.
