Now here is one you don't see everyday; the Watehen Bloa. Another in the series of classic North Country Spider flies from yours truly! Also below is a picture of the Waterhen skin I just got from the UK. Believe it or not, I was on a waiting list to get one of these bird skins. Enjoy! :)

Hook: Daiichi 1550 size 16
Body & Head Pearsalls Silk - Primrose Yellow
Dubbing; very sparse amount of mole skin (the body thread should still be visible under the dubbing)

Nice looking fly. I bet that'll do. I got a "trouts eye" view yesterday and I believe I saw nymphs that looked just like that.

BTW, nice photo editing ;) ;) ::ke: ::ke:

Other place? Are you holding back resources from your fellow fishermen?:shake:

Habano made segars. Buck, three or so posted flys should trade pretty even. Will have to try real hard to save at least one. Lol TRW

Sounds good. I will tie you up a gaggle of the Waterhen Bloa's and we can arrange another meet and greet. I should have them ready by this weekend.
