Chris,
I have used a Boga for Cuda etc in the past, I dont really see that much of an issue with them if the fish is supported the way you did. Others in the UK have a different opinion
I presume the fly is an EP creation?..very similar to most of my flies....although i band mine with black and use flat tinsel rather than crinckled as i feel it gives of a larger flash in the water.
Have you tried the 3D Ep yet? I did a few Perch flies with it and you get a very subtle colour blend, very nice, will get some pictures of them.
I have also started using the DNA stuff, either as additions to the EP flies or for tying smaller baitfish imitations. Its good stuff!!!
Got to get out soon! Fancy a trip somewhere? Cameron(luckyshot) and Iain Cameron are keen for a bash
