Notes: Being the family man he is, Joel makes sure to make his family his first priority, even before fishing and tying flies. The Dr. J was tied in honor of Joel's daughter Jennifer receiving her doctorate degree. Joel base the pattern on the Mezger Special, a blue and green winged pattern, adding one of his favourite feathers, a dark Pardo Coq de Leon (CDL) hackle. The blue and green tones peak out from behind the speckled shroud of the CDL feather and create a light spring smelt colour.

Since you got this far …
The GFF money box
… I have a small favor to ask.
Long story short
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
