i really like it! looks nice and full and the wing has a fresh unique look to it as well. should swim nice and balanced i think. good luck on the thompson.
yes I counter wrapped and its a pain to weave through long hackle
Forgot to mention this was the second one of these I have ever tied, first looks the same but using pheasant as a wing didn't look right which causes me to dig through my wall and boxes of stuff for something better.
