Nice tie. A lot of fisherman believe that scruffy flies fish better. (not talking about the fly you posted) Some tiers go to a lot of trouble to tie ratty looking flies. Not me! Mine always look like I've thrown them on the floor and stomped on them a few times. The very best day I have ever had was on the Little Tennessee River before it was dammed. This was before some of you were born and the Little T was one of the best streams in the South I fished a Brown Hackle wet fly that I tied and the fish couldn't get enough of it. When I had to quit, the fly was torn all to pieces and still catching fish. I kept the ragged thing a long time to show people. Don't know what happened to it but I wished I'd framed it! I do envy the beautiful flies tied by most of you and tried and tried to get every thing somewhat like them but it just ain't in me. I've finally accepted this and still love tieing. The fish, Bless them, seem to have accepted them also.
