Nicely tied fly Scott!
I’ve been meaning to tie some Royal Wulff parachutes. I may have to go this route instead!
Royal Wulff’s float great for me, at least for the first few fish. My problem is balancing the wings. Mine often flop over to one side.
I end up tying Trudes or parachutes which are must faster and turn out better for me. I do love the Wulff style though.
