Very nice indeed, really neat tying, but looks messy (in a good way) if that makes any sense. One question, why the legs on the top?

I don't tie these but I do tie a decent amount in deer hair. Wouldn't you be better off leaving yourself more room for the Muddler head. Looks to me like you another ball of spun hair to be able to shape the head better.

Steve you're right. The muddler (deer hair) head is so small that it lends nothing to the fly and could just as well be omitted. Other than that a very well tied fly.
