Just a little constructive criticism on the montana.

I think the hackle should only be over the green dubbing/chenille.
And the top of the hackle should be cut.
The body seems a tad uneven.


But id still put it on my leader without thinking twice.



The second fly is brill, nothing wrong with it at all
