Nice looking fly. Can you flesh it out a bit more? Looks from the photo like it may have a fine wire rib; is that so? What sort of Pheasant feather are you using? Wing covert? Body feather? Synthetic or natural dubbing? Thanks.

 

[DeweyGreen]

the body is mahogany turkey biot
fine gold wire
thorax is pink dubbing
hackle is hen Phesant neck feather
thread is uni thread 8/0 rust brown

Nice proportions. You tie well.
Seems like I have better luck with a grouse and black softhackle for the henny's.
Not sure why.
