Don, That is a real beauty! I like the lack of belly and herl. This pattern doesn't need it. Looks like a fishy meal in an of itself.

Don, that is an absolute killer pattern. I LOVE IT. The colors are to die for. The profile it gorgeous. Artfully tied. A definite WINNER!
why do you name only hook? you should given name of nets and others gear.
I couldn't agree more Martin! I hate xxxxin' flash! I have it shut off and refuse to view it. Jobs was right! Apple too rich though... come on they are way overdue because well, they are right. I also own nothing with Microsoft or windows in it. Cant stand that crap, it makes me ill looking at it.
Fantastic combination of colors Robert. Love it.
Nice Write up about Ora. I grew up near his house and spent many times in his den while he was tying flies as a child. I still have a small assortment of his flies in one of my boxes. I even have one of his pumpkin heads! I bought a Ruger 10/22 from him and got to shoot it in his basement shooting range. It was interesting as it ran underneath his driveway as I recall.
hi thanks for posting my videos Im a big fan of GFF as it was my intro in to fly fishing podcasting. These flys have taken over 600 trout for me this year alone. Have a look at my Mayfly Emerged and B&B as well there must have flise!
Martin,
Your words echo with me as well and are sage advice indeed. A friend once told me, after I said to him (about something I wanted to very much do), "I'll do that someday". He said, "Son, (then a long pause) there is no some day". The man was a veteran of the battle for Bastogne in WWII, who shared with me... "some things".
I had to think about what he said for a minute, before it hit me like a hammer. Some day never happens. There is today. Live it!
I've tried to follow that creed as best I can...albeit now with a renewed vigor, with my two sons!
Keep the faith, Martin!

Thanks for your comments, however Senator Kilkelly is a women.
Lovely fly Don. The profile is perfect! This would be a good fly to have in your fly box for sure.
Black flies seem to work anywhere,i bet this would work great on our large brown trout here in Scotland especially at this time of year when they start to feed on the fry...
Nice tye and a nice gesture to an honourable man..
The colors are simply breath taking. Amazing tie.
I have watched your flytying for two years or so,and im sure im tying a better fly,you do make it very easy to follow,and im quite happy to let other like minded lads know where they might improve,my area of tying is spiders,they are great in the Tay for trout and sea trout .
Thank you.
It is a cornetfish usually caught with small soft plastic white lures.. We catch it a lot in the Mediterranean, it's new to our shores .. They usually feed on anything resembling a fish chasing the and literally sucking them into their straw resembling snouts
