The Black Cat is my kind of streamer, that will be great for trolling this spring. I will tying a few the coming weekend at a show where I will be tying. Great job with the project.
Super! Love the contrasting colors. Makes the fly pop!
Very beautiful Black Cat Darren. I just tied one recently myself but no where near as nice as yours. Thank you for the tips and I will store that info away for future use.
Thanks Loretta. I was pretty pleased with how this one turned out. I had tied one up a few months back and misplaced it. I had to tie another as I had scheduled it here. I found the original one I had tied for the project shortly after tying this one and decided this one was the nicer streamer.
Wow, Darren...you blew it all out on this one. Magnificent! I love it!!
The Black Cat is a outstanding picture of beauty I will be tying a couple this weekend at a show. I will be trying them this spring trolling for brook trout and salmon.
Simply elegant! I really appreciate your tips. Sometimes you go to tie a fly and it's just those few tid bits of information that makes or breaks a fly.
Thanks Avril. I've had lot of helpful critiques over the years that I've picked up tips from.
Thank you Monte. I love blue in a fly. There is one particular place I fish now and then, where blue is a big winner.
jay2e,
There's some advice about shad fishing and patterns in this article - The old Hickory [url]http://globalflyfisher.com/fishbetter/shad/[/url] - right here on GFF.

Kelly this fly is very beautiful and you have amazing talent. I look forward to seeing what else you have tied for this project.
Kelly that is a stunning fly -- the warmth of the yellow and orange and the soft cool blue. Really well done! I bet fish will like it too.
Thanks Ken! The wing had gray followed by kingfisher blue hackles. (light to med gray)
I am glad you like the fly. :-) I had not been tying many long featherwings before I came up with this pattern.
Thank you guys very much. I am tickled pink that you like the fly! :-)
Wow Kelly I love the pattern and amazing job on tying it. I will have to try and tie a few of these up before opening day. I have a soft spot for any streamers with blue in it for fishing our rivers here.
Gary, I would be honored for you to do that! Thank you!
