Sick
Hopefully the palometa thinks so as well...Sick
It looks hotter than your body tube crab in my eye anyway
Where you headed again?

I will never knot PT legs again:Westie Muddler (variation)
Used Davie McPhail’s Loch Harry fly as a basis with some modifications. The only thing I hate more than knotting pheasant tail legs is watching them disappear after a few trout munch on the fly (although they do look so cool) so I used a pheasant body feather instead to get a somewhat similar effect; trout here don’t care either way. Getting down to the last of my white pronghorn (you can see stains on some of the hairs); I will be very, very sad when that’s used up as my hunter friend doesn’t have any more.

No, I couldn't even handle doing it for myself, no way I could it for employment. https://pnwflyfishing.com/forum/index.php?threads/knotted-pheasant-legs.3752/Could you imagine doing that for a living?

I think that was me a while back. Funny this was recently posted, as the bronze peacock was THE color today. I ended up sharing what I had with two other fly fishers as fishing was really slow for them too until they tied on one of these. Bead color didn't matter again though. Effective testing.Someone mentioned peacock and bronze peacock in a recent post here on tying leeches so I decided to give it a try. You’ll need a different color maribou but that might work in one of the darker lakes with muddy bottoms and brownish vegetation.
Rough take but probably right onCould you imagine doing that for a living?
