Who tied this?
Last year I hosted a couple of fly swaps. One tier sent some extras for the swap master,
This fly:
Attachment 15915
I had the opportunity to use this fly on the Henery?s Fork, Firehole and the Madison with great success!
My Guide on the Henery?s Fork was super impressed with it also, and he fishes 200 days a year and sees a crazy huge amount of flys in action.
This fly accounted for dozens of fish, was DEADLY on the Firehole.
Here is the thing, I lost the tiers info, and I wanted to thank him/her for the flys and relay the success of the fly.
I would really like to know who sent me these flys, and get the exact recipe.
Or, just SELL me 2dozen and I will give some away to all my fly fishing friends for Christmas.
Feel free to reply here or IM me..
Thanks in advance!

SCG [ just go back to the fly swaps area and check your swap. For this one it looks like pix disappeared but names and flies still there.
It does look like a very nice fly!

That?s the thing, I lost all that info on my account somehow, was locked out for a while, not quite sure what happened.
The tier may not have used that fly in the swap. I don?t have a toe tag for it either.
That fly was money, crazy effective this spring. Probably the hottest fly I have ever used. Fished ONE all day on the henrys fork, lost three on the Firehole,

When looking at the photo it appears to have partridge feather barbs for the tail, gold,copper and bronze wire for the body of the fly with hares ear dubbing dubbed rough for the thorax and partridge soft hackle and a gold or copper bead head. Should be easy enough to tie up.
