Default Norski Lad variant

I thought I had better get practising for the Norski Lad swap, so here is one of my early attempts.

I haven't settled on the actual variation yet, but will fettle over the next week or so.

Norski Variant

Thanks for the comments gents.

Dabhoy, you know as well as I do that you use marabou because it can soak up a lot of gink so you can fish them high and dry .

Nice Merkister there Black-Don.

All the best, Steve
