Nice to see a bigger picture of this fly than your avatar.

Very, very nice indeed!

Is it cappercaile (tiur) in the throat?

Have you tried to tie it with a long lemon yellow spey hackle, thinks that too could had been a nice fly.

Thank you, Oddbjørn!
Yes, the throat hackle is capercaille - the original calls for guinea bird, but I think capercaille is an excellent replacement. Actually I think it is an improvement.
A yellow spey hackle ought to be a good idea! Will have to try that!
