Here is a pattern I use in the creeks and rivers I fish. Has had some very productive days fishing this fly.

That's a wicked looking fly! You definitely create some amazing fly's! I wish I had the skill/ability to tie flies like you do!

Very nice!

Are the wings mylar, or something else? Are they also UV?

Goose biots!

I have a bunch of them. But, I've never once tied anything that called for them. By looking at them, I couldn't figure out what they were would be used for. It is painfully obvious now.

Thank you!
