Default Gardening Leave Flee

Not sure if it'll catch anything as it was originally tied just to have the colours of Gardening Leave. But here it is anyway.

Comments and orders (lol) welcome

I'll have 500 size 20's Tam no thats a decently tied fly, colour scheme's different as blue and green is an acquired taste but thats a great fly to use for your project and is spot on with your logo, well done hope you sell alot

I was joking about the orders

I was bored one night and thought I'd try something different. I've been getting up at 4am this week to go on the river as trying to fish during the day is a complete waste of time (unless trout have found a decent sunglasses supplier), So I'll try it tomorrow just for funnies. You never know

Looks like the body hackle has seen a bit of scissor action, Anyone remember when Fulling Mill did a range of "Bushy Bob" flies using large saddles hackle clipped to size?

Cheers

I like it and reckon it'll catch-will see if I can knock off one or two myself and let you all know how they do.
