    Maybe you should do the last two first, for inspiration! Seriously, the riversmallies link is for an adult dragon or damsel imitation.

    David L,

    Here is one from Al Campbell's tying series.

    Trout don't speak Latin.

    Hi David,
    Try this one. Dragonflies will land with their wings apart but damselflies have their wings together. This makes the damsel patterns much easier to cast. I don't know if the trout will really be concerned with the wings, however. BTW, I used to live in Umpqua Valley in the community of Tyee. I love that area....

    Thanks to one and all.

    For the links and information on the Dragon Flys. The Flies will be used in my nephews wedding flowers. This is an ideal and request form if future wife, (neet Lady) for her flowers and the buttoners.
