A few minor changes to Doug Korn's neat fly; added a grouse shoulder and skipped the folded head (stems were too thick on the hen pheasant feathers I had).

hook - WFC Model 3 #12
thread - Uni 8/0 tan
rib - tying thread
body - Lion Wool Ease oatmeal
body hackle - ginger
shoulder - sharptail grouse
wing(s) - hen pheasant (2)

Regards,
Scott

Very nice ...

Scott, I like it! Nice Variant. Doug Korn

Thank you, Doug. Had to spend the month of August back home tending family matters so I didn’t get to try it out this year; hopefully 2023.

Scott

Looks great and I think it will prove to be a winner.

That's a really good lookin' fly Scott!
