ScottP,

What a beautiful tie. That one and the Usual are two of my favorites for small brooks.

Probably would handle a #10 beadhead dropper and still float. Nice fly.

Nice tie and I like that you’re using barbless. “Frannie” would have appreciated it too. His tackle shop is no more but his legend continues on the Ausable River.
