A hairwing version of an American classic, the original had an Amherst wing hence the name. I really like these Silver/Grey colour combos and intend to try them in clear water over here.

Tag - Yellow Floss
Tail - GP Crest
Butt - Black Ostrich Herl
Rib - Oval Silver
Body - Silver Tinsel
Body Hackle - Silver Badger cock
Throat - Teal Flank
Wing - Grey Squirrel
Cheeks - Kingfisher

Nicely dressed Gary. I especially like the counter wrapped rib over the hackle stem.

It will hunt well!

Thanks Marc glad you liked it..
I always cross rib palmered hackles as I find it makes the fly much more durable.
