Not sure what’s going on with your camera but the fly was often not in focus. It made watching difficult.
Very cool pattern looks great thanks for sharing
Nice buzzer, Rick, another one to try! 👍
Awesome. Definitely going to tie this.

Rick, Where do you get the body stretch and mirage tinsel? What size for both?
