Default Hmm...

Well been bored today, and this has led to tying up GUFF. No other word for it.

So without further a do. This fly won't be fished, won't catch a fish.

Name it and for 1 million points guess the wing material.

Note: pic has came out terrible. Was a lot clearer before I uploaded it.
I'd keep calling it the "GUFF"-Gets Up Fly Fishermen's Noses and guess you've used black fur from your pet Labrador.I think you'd be surprised if you did give it an outing-Pleasantly surprised!

Difficult to judge the size of the hook, but to hazard a guess... dyed black squirrel tail, fibres look a bit long for that though?

Hook is a Long Shank 10. It's a streamer type hook.
