Two dry run. I hadn't tied one before and the top one shows it. The second has adjustments to the tag/body length and hackle size. I didn't stack the fox squirrel tail hair either. The body is copper flat and oval and the herl is natural bonze. Originally the tail calls for Peacock Sword but I think bronze herl for the tail also just seems appropriate. Maybe for the next one. I don't know if it's the choice of hook or what -still looks off to me.
Your thoughts on getting this dialed in please.
