yep. it's pretty raw, but i'd looked at flies like this for ages wondering how it was done. now we know. definitely a case of 'less is more' with the fibre, too

The guy did well considering he obviously had a very bad head cold.  :lol:

Oliver  Edwards'  Footprint Dun. Supposedly good for fussy fish in slower water. We shall see. If it has legs it works for me.  :lol:

This one used microfibbets for the tails and legs and they are a bit tricky to see in the photo. I'll try another with deer hair or something. It is actually quite easy to tie.

This is the above fly in water. Ginked.  It does float and the loop wing makes it quite visible. I can see this fly might have potential in long smooth glides with rising fish.

Indeed. It's one of the few that takes under 5 hours to tie.  :lol:
