That's lovely tying. Am printing it out as I type this message. Your french partridges are v well tied. I am going to tie up a couple like that and then mix in a few dyed English partridge. They give a really good speckled effect!
Lovely fly that

You've certainly raised the bar on the partridge mayfly type of fly geordie, so much so, I think its about time I got my stuff together and get a few of them done. Love this one
