I really love the wing, looks pretty soft using 6 nicely curved hackles.
Woot!
That's not flytying, that's mass production! Nice flybox, and definitely something you will appreciate once you're at the water.
Hope you have a great trip.

Folks,
Sorry about omitting the materials... a slip. I added the proper code now, and viola!

Charlie, you and I are in the same boat. I also started tying back in the 60's. My mother-in-law lived in Dennysville Maine. My first fly was the green cosseboom. Fly tying has been very relaxing over then years. I spend about an hour at the desk. I love tying trout flies streamers and nymphs mostly. I am from West Michigan...
Very nice! A marabou muddler is my go-to for smallmouth, so I will tie up a few of these for low or very clear water. Thanks, Martin. Good series.
Martin,
nice fly and nice description, thanks! I am only missing the two frames as usual, one about the fly and one about the material. I like these frames a lot......or did I oversee them....?

Thought I'd add a photo of the 4 spoke reel I bought...

Would like to by one or two spools to match this reel.
As opposed to the earlier 3 spoke model Orvis manufactured...

Let me know if you'd like to sell 'em.
Thanks,

Thanks Kelly! I just got in a new supply of CDL, and so it's wonderful timing to show this one off.
Very nice pattern Ken and your right its hard to go wrong with yellow and red.
Very nice and easy, I'll try this fly on Norwegian salmon in a couple of months!!!
Charlie, do you have an e-mail address or website where I can contact you? I would love to see some of your hairwing salmon flies.
Cheers, joel
I do not have a web site. I tie for a special orders once in a while. I am slowing done, because of my age (80).

Martin, I saw a lot of these fish in brackish water around Vastervik in Sweden. Can be found in Denmark too? Thanks
