This is the third or fourth time I've come back to look at this. I love the simplicity, it reminds me of the Nurse series of flies by, I think Tony King, some years back. I'd fish it for sure, but I couldn't sell it! I think it would look great tied as one of Greys of Kilsyth needle flies. I wonder if I can get hold of some gold coloured needles? (Don't answer that, I know they will be available somewhere, I'm wondering about local availability.)
Cheers,
A.
