Awesome looking fly. I noticed you have the dry fly hackle turned so that the barbs face the eye of the hook instead of the bend. Is there a reason for this?

Great video, awesome pattern, thank you for posting it. P.S. would be even better if you would lose the gangbanger thug low rider meets techno yuppie hip hop music... adds nothing to the video.
