Driffield dun

[wingman]

Just tied one of these up for the first time. I've used mole for the body instead of the lead coloured seals fur which I havn't got for some reason and mallard for the wings instead of starling, which could do with being a shade or two darker, but not bad. Tied on a kamasan B175 size 12 for a change but maybe a lighter hook preferred. Sorry yet another arty pic (I'm trying to emulate that rob denson ya know).

Very nice tying again Mark. Agree on the hook.
Is that honey dun cock hackle and tail fibres?

[wingman]

Thanks wobbly, the hackle is a ginger cock hackle but a honey dun would be ok also.
