I have my own variant of a Christmas Fly with green/red and it is highly effective for spring brook trout here in Newfoundland. Your pattern is more elegant than mine and I can't wait to try it.

See if the new tool from TMC can help you burn the wings perfectly every time or if you still have to fold and cut like an used hair dresser. September 15th 2006 Hen Hackles and Wet Flies Awhile back, I received a shipment of hen necks and saddles from Whiting Farms. The saddles struck me with their intense colors and solid web, then necks with their stem length and shortish barbs. These feathers were perfect for the wet flies I was working on. October 23rd 2006
