Default Klink 2

Here's my second attemt at a klink, I've shortened the hackles slightly on this one as suggested, also tried a quill body. All comments welcome.

Cheers Craig

Very nice What is the thorax material?, I quite like the rainbow type colour Is it a dubbing mixture? You'll have to forgive me fo a possibly silly question, I've not been tying for more than about 2 months

Craig, that is a terrific looking fly. I'd fish that with total confidence. Great tying!!

Hi James, not a silly question, the thorax is a mix of black and orange Veniards Glister Sparkle Dubbing.

Ah, sounds good I have some glister dubbing, although not in those colours, but I'll have to try it out
