@nfrechet
What….no urine soaked scrotal hair from a ram for dubbing???

Great tie!!

the big guy kept running away when i approached him with the shears. i tried but he wasn't having any of that 👎👎😁😁

never mind the ram. finding an unborn seal is impossible to find here in Connecticut

I saw patches of urine stained fox at Beaverkill Angler going for 120.00. The last time I checked they were gone.

That’s crazy. Mike Hogue sells a patch for about 5 bucks

I thought so. I cant imagine someone buying it. Who knows. I was given a little package of Tups from a friend. It may be synthetic but it has the color. I.would imagine any pinkish Hendrickson dubbing would work just fine.

Jack Gartside’s Sparrow Nymph. Tied on a size 10 Firehole 839. I tied this one as close as I could to the way that the master had designed it many decades ago.

Wow! That’s one perfectly beautiful, ugly fly.

I watched Gartside tie one a number of years back and I’m sure he’d approve of yours.
