    I don't know how pretty it has to be but I bet that one will catch a bream or two.

    Shu, I don't see anything wrong with that. I'm willing to bet that you'll put several in the boat with it. My first one got to talk with a razor blade and start again.

    It will kill' em ! A black gnat with a touch of red is awesome . You are only missing the red tip . The slow fall is he ticket . Four rivers bait co. made the best store bought . Betts made a good one as well but the feather they added was contrary as it did not want to sink . You have a winner there .

    Eagle1 is right, try the single red thread or feather as an addition.

    Bet it catches some Blue Gils for sure! Good job!

    I also have tied some like this before and know they worked. I just used dubbing and a saddle hackle. Think mine generally not as good as yours, lol! I do think that I can do better now than I did back then though, lol! It's not as easy as it looks, really!
