    I get these right every once in a while, unlike the original, which eludes me; tied here as a PMD. Here’s Mr. Mathews’ SBS if you’re interested.

    thread - Veevus 8/0 yellow
    shuck - Congo Hair brown
    abdomen - tying thread
    thorax - Superfine dubbing PMD
    wing - deer hock bleached

    Regards,
