    Very nice as always Donald. I really like the markings on the Brahma hen saddle feathers. They make a great soft hackle fly material.

    Sorry about the repeats in the post.
    I'm having eye problems again.
    Glad you like the flies, Brahma saddle has excellent spider hackles.

    Beautifully done, Donald! Those are some very fishy looking flies.

    Very nice Donald. The claret one would be a good one at change of light. Sorry to hear your eyes are playing up again. Hope it gets sorted soon.
