Very slick pattern. Where did you find this one, Scott? Never heard of it before, and Bob was a local tier in my neck of the woods.

I saw it over on Kelly Galloup's Slide Inn site. Did you ever get to fish with Mr. Quigley? I was very sad to hear of his passing; guess it's been almost 2 years now.

Never had the privilege of fishing with Bob, but was fortunate enough to take a tying class with him a once few years ago. Excellent tier and instructor, as you might imagine.
