A little Different Hair Wing Fly

I don't know that this fly will perform on the water, but I intend to give it a try, when possible.

Deer hair over the thorax and wind the hackle through it.

Considered that. Just sort of experimenting.
Believe it or not, it is a by-product of an idea I have.......which is to substitute spun deer hair for the closed cell foam buds used on patterns similar to LaFontaine's Halo Midge Emerger and other flies.

Just enjoy sort of exploring with different materials.
