Nice tie!!! Have you tried tying it with palmered brown hackle instead of grizzly? I find it works well on cloudy days, could be the darker color gives better contrast.
Work is something for people that don't fish.
I have not Mike. Actually, I use a light dun, but nearly grizzly. I also don't use a silver rib, but rib with thread.
Post a photo of the brown palmer.
Thanks,
Byron
That's a very attractive fly, Byron.
Here's a good recipe for the fly for those of us no familiar with it.

Nice tie, Byron, as usual. Here's mine:

Real nice Chuck. I would say that your fly is dressed more like the original pattern.

My Grizzly Hen neck is kaput! SO....I substituted Silver Badger. And Cree hackle in place of the griz/brown.....Oh....and CDL in place of the griz tail.
