Top job Iain very tidy fly, was there ever any doubt that your fly would not sit correctly? nope you always seem to hit the mark with cracking flies, I always look forward to seeing your posts of flies you have been working on, always crisp and scream fish food to me.

This fly is along the same lines of a couple of emergers that a certain fly dresser / angler from the north west used to have in his fly box, great minds and all that stuff (not Hamish far too small to be one of his).

Was that a Klink hook about a #14 or 12?, nice size for a Danica, they are massive beasties.

I will pinch that dressing and knock a few up myself to add to the huge box of klinks I have already if you don't mind.

Kev.

Master Muir,
Your words had me welling up as we all know that you are the 'Urban Deer Hair Ninja' and to have a dressing featuring said material extolled by you is
dope.

The fly is indeed suited to Hamish and his happy throng of massive fly enthusiasts - its a size 10!

Knock yersel' out and knock a few up for later in the year.

your loyal servant
