Nothing special there, but it takes top position in my fly box for the bows....have tied hundreds of these for family and friends and has never failed to catch for us, just thought i would share

Some victims









Like i said just a fly that has caught the bows for me on every lake ive tried it, so i tie more of these than any other fly i use



Tight lines,

Geordie.
