A wee bumble

[oakham orange]

Here is a wee bumble that I tied up. It should give a fair bit of movement.
I cant take the credit for the stunning photos. For that I have to thank Scratch. Cheers Rob. I sent Rob the wee bumble to see what he thought and he came back with these photos. They probably make the fly look better than it is . A lot better than the rubbish photos I take anyway

Anyway if anyones interested, here is the dressing.

Tail: Hot GP Tippets
Butt: Red Holographic Tinsel
Rib: None
Boby: None
Body Hackle: Mellanistic Cock Shoulder & Jungle Cock (dyed yellow sun) tied in stages
Head Hackle: Blue Jay.

"Ooooh! That's a pretty looking soft-hackled bumble, capable of doing a job at any position on the leader, and on any line" said burglar Bill.... "I'll have that"

Yer too kind mate... point and squirt innit! We have extra nice light around these parts

It's a lovely wee flee, and begged me to take it's picture. The soft hackles and the Jay are just bristling with movement and life. Really keen on this one. It's ann unusual tie, but 'just right'. It's gonna get a bit of leader time from me.

I have to disagree with you all, i think scratch has done no justice to this fly with those out of focus shots, i can hardly make them out.. OO i think you should send me half a dozen of these flies so i can give an informed opinion

Sorry scratch
