The Glasso-style Purple Heron I'd fished all Saturday was productive but the tinsel had broken after a few grabs. Tied this up this afternoon while I watched the Blue Jays beat up on (and then almost choke to) the Yankees.

Replaced by this freestyle Dee with (an attempt at) Murdoch wings. Really focused on trying to keep that nice taper to the ends when setting them, but the fat section of the barbs on one side was a little longer than the others and so one wing compressed a little cleaner than the other. Also made for a bit of a bigger head than I like.
