GIERACH SPECIAL Swap
I thought it might be fun to tie John Gierach's streamer as described in TROUT BUM
and was hoping there wouldn't be a pic of one on the net...no such luck!

Still it might be fun if we can get 6-12 tyers to compare their interpretation of the original or a
variation like the one shown in the link.
G. SPECIAL as described "a body of Pearl flashabou piping is wound on a weighted, long-shanked streamer hook.
The beard is a sparse white bucktail tied just past the bend of the hook. The wing is
a medium bunch of gray-squirrel tail tied just a tad longer than the beard, with a topping
of 6-8 strands of pearl flashabou under 6-8 strands of peacock herl. The head is a salmon-egg-red
with black-on-white painted eyeballs."
If any interest...sign-up by March 2nd in the mail to me by March 23rd.
