Some thoughts

Instead of Black fibres for a wing I tried a few grizzly hackles
Intead of mallard for collar I used Guineau ..other than that they are identical
Change out collar contrasts or complements
Combos go on and on as fishtech and speyducer show with their marabou creations.....

Good fishin y'll

Im hitting the delaware or the CAtt (rain rain go away) this week..still cant decide about fishin small olives to sippers or swinging or both...decisions decisions

Those will work.

Question for you, what did you tie them on. Half way looks like a cotter key but I don't think so.

MFC offset shank

Shanks from montana fly company

As much a s I like the up eye versions, the off set rear end sits nice in jaws, makes mounting wire and building rear ends of fly easier

40mm and 45 mm I believe

Thanks Dave.

Must give those a 'Google,' really cool looking way to tie.
