    Yes, there was a SBS on Global FlyFisher many years back... I tie them in a darker profile, the Yellows love this fly

    Now that is my type of fly..... Well tied too. Thanks for posting it Dirk.

    awesome flies dirk...i'll def be following you and getting ur flies out the rocks and trees
    with that tie, do you take to biot all the way up the sides of the fly to the thorax? looks good and earthy...nice juicy natural.

    no doubt a serious killer of the troots as well

    Thanks Gary!

    Yes, I match two biots together so the points flair outward and place them on the side of the body, the warped copper wire secure them nicely. This pattern was also very good to me in NZ last year, I hooked a nice Brown Trout on the Opihi River with this fly - see pic

    Cool, I like fishing that way as well....too many flies on the rig means too many tangles for me...
