Default cranky BWO spinner

following on from the convo of the merry sherry spinner, hopefully this one has solved the problems we had found

I got way too trigger happy I know, but this one felt right if you know what I mean? Hopefully!

Stuart crofts SBS suggests the use of a partridge SUD, so I reckon the grip 11011BL would put up with being cranked. Nice long tails, segmented biot body (rust colour) clipped sparse hackle for the wing and a nice tall bright post to show up in low light.

Aye I just might do WP. Ha im celebrating the day off, no more practicals until the new year

sorry peter, its just when I get inspiration for a fly I just gotta tie it! Don't forget they have yet to be tested! But I will make sure they are thoroughly tested!

You won't need to test that one. It will work alright

Nice version
