It looks good to me! I haven't made any of the epoxy flies myself though. Have you tried it in the water yet? How does it move?

Really I guess it is ultimately up to the fish! I would think that they will love it. [Smile]

Very nice, can't wait to hear about all the fish it hooks, cause it looks like it can do the job.

im going to let it loose on deer creek or the nelle this weekend. gotta get the toon out, and yes the gill look was done with a red sharpi marker, and the top of the head was also done with a olive sharpi before the epoxy
