Hi Jim; Good to see you are still tying great flies.
Those Hydropsyche Larvae have given me a good few Rainbows in the Tongoriro a good fish fetcher.
Have Fun. Jax

OMGoodness
That thing looks alive.
You are a bug artist.
Step outside of what we do and it would be wierd to figure this thing out.
But man, what a bug, really cool.
Jim, you are an artist on another level indeed.
