A little tricky but a winner! Good to see that I'm not the only one to catch a few hackle fibers when tying off.

Hello from the east coast. Really great idea, surprising that I didn’t think of it before! Anyway, this is one spinner design that my buddies are gonna love using for landlocks in Maine. And the Canada goose biot makes a very realistic abdomen. As always Charlie, quality throughout. Many thanks.

I always tied the spinner wing in front of the post on this style, thanks for sharing a new technique for me.

Thank you sir! I'm very new to fly tying. I really learn a lot from you!

Well now - that's just a beauty. That would fish very well in some of my favorite spots. Add that to this winter's list. Thanks!

Good catch on that rogue hackle fiber!

Looking good there CC. Keen to get a new Dk pro jaw and super excited to know when you will publish that dry fly book?

Ok- how long till you start selling the dyed biots??? This fly looks KILLER and is highly useful (imitates most mayfly spinners)
